Skinfold Measurements of body fat

Our Dietitians are accredited in level 1 anthropometry through the International Society for the Advancement of Kinanthropometry. This means we offer a service that accurately measures total body fat through skinfold measurements. This is a service that we now offer to track true body composition changes when an individual undertakes physical activity training or dietary change in order to change their physique.

Is this right for you? Give us a call on 355 7770 to find out if you would benefit from this service.

Our Discounted Packages - When you buy 5 visits or more you are entitled to a 10% discount on consultation fees. For more details talk to our receptionist (conditions apply).

Gift Vouchers - If you know someone who could do with dietary advice but can't afford it right now, then buy them a voucher. It is valid for 6 months and makes a great Christmas present.

Mens Health Quiz: Are you at a healthy body weight?

Some men are motivated by love….through caring for their own body’s they are teaching their children (through example) how to care for, love and respect themselves. Other motivators to optimise health include competetiveness. Men tend to be competitive by nature so chumming up with a buddy (ideally someone heavier), may help to attain a healthy body weight. After all if all the hard work means that we live longer it is important to have buddies left at the end. Some men are motivated by wealth...in which case they should imagine themselves like Al Bundy with their wallets open. If they don’t look after themselves their children will spend all their money before they get half the fun out of it.
