Trusted since 2011 as the gold standard for body composition, fitness, and metabolic testing worldwide.
"The representative's expertise and clear explanations made the experience smooth and highly educational. I left feeling empowered and motivated with a much better understanding of my body composition and overall health."
"I recommend you do this regularly to see where your body is in terms of lean mass, body fat and bone density. One of the best locations to do the Dexa scan. I'm very happy with my results."
"When I walked in they knew my name. The staff accommodated me and did both tests back-to-back. It was great to compare the DEXA results to my home body composition measurements."
"Carrie thoroughly explained our results. It was really interesting and educational to see what the total body composition scan showed. This is going to help me set goals for my fitness and diet."
"I learned a lot about my body composition and what can be improved upon from a quick 20 minute scan. This first scan is my baseline and will return in a few months."
"The actual dexa scan and RMR test were both quick and comfortable, followed by an informative assessment. Was very happy with my experience and will return for a follow up."
"The whole process was simple, fast, and painless — and all my results were ready right away and explained in great detail. I'm a big fan of the app."

"Appointments are on time and quick. The location is easy to get to. If you're looking to get a DEXA scan for body composition, I would highly recommend using this company."
"Carrie was knowledgeable and explained all the scans before we did them. Super helpful to know exactly what my body composition is! Will definitely be back in 6 months."
"The scan is quick and provides such useful information on bone density, and fat and lean muscle mass composition. You should definitely come here, and I will be back soon to get another scan to check my progress."
"I love that you can get your dexascan, resting metabolic rate AND a proper VO2max test all in one place. This is my third time there and I love it!"
"Laura was very chill and kind but still very efficient. This was my second Dexa scan and VO2 max test to track fitness and body composition. I'm an endurance athlete who wants to track progress year to year."
"I've gotten a VO2 max test done here two years in a row. 10/10 experience all around. I'd recommend DexaFit Nashua to any runner looking to improve and gain true insight about their fitness."
"Nas was able to explain the data results in a way I could understand. Recommend for anyone curious about their fitness but especially athletes!"
"Carrie was excellent! She explained everything as we went along and was very enthusiastic and supportive. I would highly recommend DexaFit for both experienced athletes or those who are just starting out."
"The technicians were very friendly and knowledgeable. I learned so much more about myself as an athletic middle-aged woman. Highly recommend!"
"I am an athlete and recently turned the big 5-0 and was recommended to get a bone density scan. They are excellent people and knowledgeable about the test measures and outcomes."
"DexaFit is a must for anyone interested in improving overall health as well as performance. The result metrics are game changers for me as an older athlete looking to shed weight and improve performance intelligently."
"We did the VO2 max test, very cool! We learned a lot and finally have very accurate zones to go off of as elite athletes. Will definitely recommend to all athletes. Garmin is way off!"

"I was very pleasantly surprised by the results, even as a 71-year-old man, blown away really. Longevity experts like Peter Attia agree that VO2 Max is the best indicator of your longevity trajectory there is."
"Staff was very knowledgeable and professional. I felt like I could ask lots of questions and take the time I needed. Must do for anyone who cares about their longevity."

"Already scheduled my next session. Really nice people and super valuable information for improving overall health and longevity."
"My wife and I are older and concerned about our longevity. We both had scans today. I would recommend this to everyone, especially if you are concerned about maintaining or improving your health."
"VO2 max and muscle mass are both significant predictors of longevity and healthspan. If your provider doesn't order these tests for you (most don't), it's worth it to visit DexaFit to get your numbers and see where you stand."
"My first visit was a 10/10. The owners both involved in counseling me along the way to make sure everything went just right. I'm psyched to make meaningful improvements and head back in next year."
"The reports afterwards were comprehensive and educational. Great baseline information at a price that makes it manageable to return for progress reports. There was NO pressure to buy things."
"My numbers improved in all areas. It was so empowering. The way the numbers are aggregated into a combined score is equated to a 'biological age.' I certainly enjoyed getting younger!"
"My 2nd annual Body Scan. The facility is clean, process is efficient, review is enlightening. Making this part of my routine annual testing is just one more healthy habit as I work towards aging backwards."
"As a Doctor of Physical Therapy, I can't recommend this enough and I will be telling all my patients. This should be the standard of care for yearly physicals!"

"Highly recommend, especially for women 30+ who want to stay ahead of potential bone density issues BEFORE they become a problem. I may have gone years without having this info otherwise."
"Doctors wanted to put me on osteoporosis medication when I was in my 40s, no way was I doing that. My bone density has improved! I will be adding this into my health plan."
"The scan was quick and efficient, taking only about six minutes. I appreciated the opportunity to get such a detailed baseline reading of my bone density, muscle mass, and other important health metrics."
"I have been on a GLP-1 for several years and having the DEXA scan is a great way to maintain progress and keep up muscle mass. Laura was super helpful and encouraging."

"Carrie is knowledgeable about diet and fitness and can provide good advice for those starting their fitness journey. I would return after completing another fat loss phase."
"The info you get from the scan is great to help kick off your weight loss goals. I really appreciate them taking the time to go over your numbers at the end of the session."
"I thought I was 21% body fat based on my scale at home when in reality I was 34%. I was 'skinny fat' but didn't even know it. This was a very eye opening reality check."
"It was eye opening to see the scan and the results. I wished I had done this at the beginning. It's amazing to have actual results and to see what my true fitness levels are. AMAZING!"
"I recently lost a fair amount of weight and wanted to know where I stood. DexaFit gave me excellent feedback on my weight loss and future fitness goals."
"This is one of the few places that has RMR testing which I really needed to help determine my caloric deficit. Will definitely be returning periodically for further assessments."
Common Questions
Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?
Booking is preferred at every DexaFit location. Each appointment is dedicated time with the equipment and a technician walking you through your results, so the schedule fills up fast. Use the map above to find the nearest location and book directly on their page.
What if my city isn't on the map?
We're expanding fast and add new locations every month. If you don't see your city yet, join the interest list and we'll notify you the moment DexaFit opens nearby.
How do I prepare for my first DexaFit visit?
For most tests: wear comfortable clothes you can move in (no metal zippers or underwire bras for the DEXA scan), avoid heavy meals 3 hours before, and skip intense workouts the morning of your visit. Your location will send you specific prep instructions when you book.
Are DexaFit tests HSA or FSA eligible?
Yes. DEXA scans, VO₂ Max tests, and RMR metabolism tests are typically HSA and FSA eligible. We can provide an itemized receipt for reimbursement. Check with your plan administrator if you'd like confirmation before booking.
Can I bring a friend or family member to my appointment?
Of course. Many of our locations are friendly to partners, family members, and friends who want to wait or come along for moral support. Some clients also book back-to-back appointments so they can test together. Just give your location a heads-up when you book.
How often should I come back for follow-up tests?
Most people return every 3 to 6 months to track meaningful change. Body composition shifts slowly, so testing more often than every 90 days rarely adds new information. Your first visit becomes your baseline, and every follow-up shows the trend.
What makes DexaFit different?
Most of your health data is a guess. Wearables estimate, calculators approximate, the scale hands you one blunt number. DexaFit measures. In a single visit you get a clinical-grade DEXA body composition scan, a VO₂ Max test, and an RMR metabolism test: the real numbers underneath your strength, your metabolism, and your longevity. That's your ground truth. Everything else gets calibrated against it.
Who is DexaFit for?
If you take your body seriously, DexaFit is for you. You may have first heard it from Tim Ferriss in The Four-Hour Body, seen DexaFit featured on Netflix's You Are What You Eat, or read about it in the longevity books and podcasts you already follow. It's the same gold-standard technology NASA uses to monitor astronauts and elite athletes use to stay on top of their sport.
Why is DexaFit considered "ground truth"?
Because these numbers can't be faked, and they keep each other honest. A lab value can be normalized in a week. Body weight can be cut overnight. The right drug or supplement can drive fast weight loss, or quick gains in muscle and strength. But a shortcut almost always costs you somewhere else: lose weight too fast and lean mass goes with it; chase size and strength and visceral fat creeps up or your VO₂ Max slips. Real progress moves the metrics that matter most, lean mass, visceral fat, bone, and VO₂ Max, in the same direction at once. Move them together, and you didn't game a result. You built something that lasts.
What's DexaFit's story?
DexaFit started in 2011 with one goal: take the clinical-grade testing that lived inside hospitals and put it in the hands of everyone serious about their health. Today it runs across four continents and 40+ states. Wherever you go, the test, the app, and your numbers go with you. Read the full story →
What do I actually learn?
Where you truly stand. Your lean mass and where it sits. The visceral fat wrapped around your organs. Your bone density. Your VO₂ Max, the single strongest predictor of how long you'll live. And the labs underneath it all. Not a wellness score or a vibe: the actual numbers that decide how strong you stay and how long you last, with personalized targets to move them.
What is a DEXA scan?
The clearest picture of your body you'll ever get. A DEXA scan separates fat from lean mass from bone and maps each one region by region, at ±2% accuracy, the clinical gold standard. Two people can weigh the exact same and be built completely differently, so the scale was never going to tell you who you are. DEXA does, and shows you exactly where to put the work. About 8 minutes, fully clothed, results the same day. Read more about the DEXA scan →
What is VO₂ Max, and why does it matter?
VO₂ Max is how much oxygen your body can actually use, and it's the single strongest predictor of how long, and how well, you'll live: stronger than smoking, blood pressure, or cholesterol (Mandsager, JAMA 2018: 122,007 patients, a 5× mortality gap between the least and most fit). Your watch estimates it. DexaFit measures it directly, then hands you the real number and the zones to train against. Raise it, and you add years. Read more about VO₂ Max testing →
What is an RMR metabolism test?
Your metabolism is the number every diet and calorie target is built on, and most people are working off a formula that's a guess, off by 20% or more. That's why plans stall and "eat less" stops working. DexaFit measures your real metabolic rate from a few minutes of quiet breathing, so you finally know how much your body burns and can eat for the body you actually have. Read more about RMR testing →
Does DexaFit measure my bone density?
Yes, two ways, and they're not the same. Every total-body DEXA scan includes whole-body bone density, with T-score and Z-score across spine, hip, and total body. That's where most people start. For a deeper look, select locations offer DexaStrong, a site-specific scan of the hip, lumbar spine, forearm, and wrist, built for anyone serious about osteoporosis risk or fracture prevention. Bone loss is silent and starts earlier than most expect, so the baseline you take today is the one you'll be glad you have. See DexaStrong →
How accurate is DexaFit compared to my scale or wearable?
Your scale gives one number. Your wearable estimates from heart rate and pace and can be off 10 to 20%. DexaFit measures directly: ±2% on body composition, and a mask that reads the oxygen you actually use for VO₂ Max. Same metrics your devices approximate, except these are real. Use the daily tools for daily signals. Use DexaFit for the truth.
How do I get started, and what's a visit like?
Find your nearest DexaFit and book. The visit runs about 20 to 45 minutes, depending on what you schedule: an 8-minute DEXA scan, plus your VO₂ Max or RMR test. Your results are available the same day, with a real person walking you through personalized targets and a clear read on where you stand, ready to act on with your doctor, your trainer, or on your own. Get DexaFit now →
Can I share my results with my doctor?
Absolutely, that's the point. DexaFit isn't a plan, it's the ground truth you build one on. Your full report exports as a PDF in clinical language your physician, trainer, or nutritionist will recognize, so the conversation starts from real numbers instead of guesses. Bring it to your doctor, your coach, or your own ambition. The data is yours.
What research backs DexaFit?
Every test is grounded in peer-reviewed evidence: JAMA, NEJM, ACSM, IOF. But DexaFit goes further: it sits on one of the largest clinical-grade body composition and metabolic datasets in the world. So your numbers aren't read against a textbook average, they're benchmarked against real measurement at scale. Explore DexaFit Research →
I'm a doctor or run a clinic. Can I offer DexaFit?
Yes. DexaFit partners with physicians, longevity clinics, and integrative-medicine practices to bring clinical-grade body composition, VO₂ Max, and metabolic testing straight to patients, the objective baseline modern care has been missing. DexaFit handles the equipment, software, and training. You focus on care. For medicine & research →
I run a gym or train athletes. Can I add DexaFit?
Yes, and the best in the game already have. DexaFit works with gyms, trainers, and athletic teams, including professional athletes across nearly every sport, to put clinical-grade data on body composition, VO₂ Max, and metabolism in their hands. Your members stop guessing and start training to real numbers, and you become the place that proves results. For gyms & trainers → · For athletes & teams →
I'm an entrepreneur. Can I open a DexaFit?
If you're building a wellness, longevity, or fitness business, DexaFit is the most credible, data-driven offering you can put at the center of it. Run it as a standalone location or layer it into something you already operate. DexaFit brings the brand, the app, the training, and the full clinical stack. You bring the vision. Explore Partnership or Powered-By →
Can DexaFit power our corporate wellness program?
Yes, and it's one of the few that pays for itself. Most corporate wellness budgets fund programs nobody can measure. DexaFit gives employees a real baseline on the metrics that actually drive long-term health, visceral fat, cardiorespiratory fitness, metabolism, and gives employers something rare: outcomes you can track. Healthier teams, lower long-term healthcare costs, and a benefit people actually use. Corporate wellness →
Do you support research and CROs?
Extensively. DexaFit serves as the measurement backbone for contract research organizations and academic teams, with countless studies run across body composition, metabolic health, and performance. From participant recruitment and screening to standardized, clinical-grade endpoint data across dozens of sites: one protocol and consistent measurement, everywhere you need it.
