Hi all,
I am trying to find a place in or around Boston that does DEXA or Body Pod body composition testing. Does anyone know of any centers that offer this??

    I just discovered this test, and was able to find a test location in Arkansas (sorry.. have not lived in Ma for about 15 years now)

    the test i had used a GE lunar prodigy, and I was impressed with the report I was given. it was not covered by insurance, but it was only a $50 fee ($25 for subsequent visits, min of 6 months between visits) and that is comparable to the fee charged by my gym for caliper based body fat measurement. I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone that wants to get an accurate view of their body composition and bone density.

    even though i was NOT happy with the body fat percentage, it is still better to have an accurate view of where I am today.
