INBODY580
Know More Than a Number on the Scale
What Is the InBody 580?
The InBody 580 is a professional-grade body composition analyzer that provides a deeper look at your overall health. Using advanced bioelectrical impedance analysis, it measures muscle mass, body fat percentage, visceral fat, water balance, and metabolism (BMR)—giving you more than just a number on the scale.
Your InBody scan helps our team at 3:6 Wellness Clinic create a personalized wellness plan that supports your unique goals, from weight management to muscle building, hormone health, and overall vitality. The InBody 580 scan is $45.
Each Scan Includes:
A detailed body composition report with easy-to-read graphs and metrics
A quick review of your results by our team
A few custom recommendations if needed for your next steps in wellness
Why choose an InBody Scan at 3:6 Wellness

Whether you’re starting your wellness journey, optimizing your fitness routine, or tracking long-term progress, the InBody 580 helps you:
Measure skeletal muscle mass and fat distribution
Monitor visceral fat and body water balance
Evaluate your metabolic rate (BMR)
Track your progress over time with accuracy
Receive tailored wellness recommendations based on your data
How to Prepare for Your InBody Scan
To ensure the most accurate results:
Avoid food, caffeine, alcohol, and vigorous exercise for 2–3 hours before your scan.
Hydrate normally the day before testing.
Remove shoes, socks, belts, wallets, jackets and jewelry prior to stepping on the device.
Use an antibacterial wipe for hands and feet before testing (provided at the clinic).
Safety & Eligibility:
Do not use the InBody if you have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or any implanted electronic device.
Pregnant individuals should consult their healthcare provider before testing.
InBody scans are available for adults 18 and older, as well as athletes under 18 with parental or guardian consent.
WHY WE RECOMMEND AN INBODY SCAN
Your body is constantly changing and the scale doesn’t tell the full story. The InBody 580 reveals what those changes really mean by breaking down your muscle, fat, and water composition in detail. This allows you to see whether weight changes are due to fat loss, muscle gain, or water balance shifts.
Understanding your body composition helps uncover key insights about:
-
Identify your basal metabolic rate (BMR) and how efficiently your body burns calories.
-
Track lean muscle mass in each body segment to prevent imbalances and support performance goals.
-
Assess visceral fat levels, which are linked to metabolic and cardiovascular health.
-
Monitor intracellular and extracellular water ratios that can reflect inflammation, recovery, and stress on the body.
InBody FAQs
-
Most patients re-test every 6-8 weeks to measure meaningful changes and track progress.
-
Yes. The InBody 580 uses multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to provide consistent and reproducible measurements without population averages or assumptions.
-
No. The InBody scan is completely non-invasive, quick, and safe.
-
Remove heavy layers, belts, socks, shoes, wallets and all jewelry before testing. Consistency between scans ensures accuracy.
-
Yes, but water retention may influence results. For consistency, test during the same phase each cycle.
-
Both tests measure body composition, but they do so in different ways. A DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) scan uses low-dose X-rays to analyze bone density, fat, and lean tissue distribution, making it a great tool for assessing bone health and total body composition with a clinical-grade precision. However, DEXA scans typically require a medical imaging facility, cost more, and involve radiation exposure.
The InBody 580, on the other hand, uses bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to measure body composition without radiation. It’s quick, non-invasive, and ideal for routine wellness tracking. While DEXA may be preferred for specific medical evaluations, InBody provides an accessible and repeatable way to monitor progress in real time, guiding your fitness, nutrition, and wellness plan at 3:6 Wellness Clinic.
