Supporting Bone Health for Over 45s
Could you be at risk of osteoporosis?
Osteoporosis is often called the "silent disease" — bone loss occurs without symptoms until a fracture happens. The good news is that a simple, non-invasive DEXA scan can reveal your risk years before a fracture occurs.
A bone health scan is recommended if you:
- Are a woman approaching or going through menopause
- Have a family history of osteoporosis or fractures
- Are over 50 and want to know your baseline bone health
- Are monitoring bone density while on HRT
- Have been told you may have osteopenia
- Face long NHS waiting times for bone density testing
Gold-Standard Bone Density Testing
Accurate T-Score & Z-Score data — what you'll receive.
Our DEXA scans measure bone mineral density at the spine and hip — the two most clinically important sites for detecting osteoporosis and assessing fracture risk.
You'll receive a detailed report including your T-Score (bone density vs. peak young-adult strength) and Z-Score (bone density vs. others your age). Together, these provide a medically meaningful picture of your bone health.
Our highly trained consultants walk you through your results and offer tailored recommendations — whether that's lifestyle changes, further monitoring, or a conversation with your GP.
Unlike a standard X-ray or blood test, DEXA is the only validated method for accurately measuring bone mineral density and calculating your personal fracture risk score.

What Our Customers Say About Their Bone Health Scans
In more than 2,000 genuine Google reviews customers consistently say the BodyView experience exceeds their expectations.
First introduction to the Dexa Scan. A very informative and useful tool for getting to know your accurate body mass, visceral fat and bone density and a lot more. Jack was excellent at talking through the process and I was really well looked after - great customer service. I would highly recommend this to anyone.
Nikki Smart
I had a DEXA body composition and bone scan with Rob at BodyScan and found the whole experience extremely valuable. Rob clearly knows his stuff. He interpreted the data with real clarity and confidence, and explained everything in a way that felt relevant to me rather than just reading numbers from a screen. I’m not an athlete. I simply wanted to benchmark my health properly and understand what was actually going on beyond weight and BMI, which don’t really tell you anything meaningful. Both scans gave me clear, accurate data and, more importantly, explained with practical context I can actually use - and will. We talked through the results straight away and I had plenty of opportunity to ask questions. I left with a detailed printed report and later received a PDF by email, which has made it easy to reflect on everything afterwards. The clinic was accessible, efficient and good value for money. In fact, it was worth every penny. Being my first scan I've realised that accuracy is essential to my goals and there's simply no comparison to consumer smart scales, which don't always estimate health markers accurately and personally were sending me in a different direction. I’m genuinely delighted I came across BodyScan. Having this kind of insightful health data allows you to take a considered and pragmatic approach to your long-term health, and I think many more people could benefit from it. Thank you Rob and the team.
Liz Reed
Really good experience with BodyView. I felt comfortable throughout, and Adam explained everything clearly in a way that made sense. The scan gave me valuable insight into my body composition and bone health, which has helped me feel more informed and reassured about my health.
Jana Cerny
The scan was well worth having. The report was very thorough and detailed. Tells you exactly what you need to know and I was told what I need to do to improve my muscle mass and bone density.
Clare Allan
I'm delighted that I did this. I do a fair amount of exercise and eat well so had imagined that all was pretty much ok with bone density. It was good to find out that all was not as it seemed and there is an area needing extra work ( delivered well by Rob ). The body fat was also really helpful and gives a measure for next time. Thanks Rob
liz Webb
This was my first time doing a DEXA body scan, and I’m really glad I went ahead with it. I wanted a clearer picture of my overall health—particularly my visceral fat levels and bone density—since I had no prior reference. The process was smooth and efficient throughout. I was pleased with my body composition results, and for the areas that needed improvement, Arthur was extremely helpful. With 8 years of experience as a PT coach, he offered clear explanations and practical, actionable guidance for moving forward.

Menopause and bone health: what every woman should know.
During menopause, declining oestrogen levels cause bone to break down faster than it can rebuild. Women can lose up to 20% of their bone density in the five to seven years following menopause — often without any symptoms.
A DEXA scan provides an accurate baseline, giving you the data to make informed decisions about HRT, diet, exercise and supplementation before problems develop.
1 in 3 women will experience a fracture due to osteoporosis after the age of 65. A simple 15-minute scan today could protect your mobility and independence for decades to come.
