Who’s familiar with the old health paradigm? Cutting calories, beginning to work out, and then wondering how long until you see change? If you’re like most people, the only way to measure your success is a number on a scale. This could explain why 60% of people with a gym membership DO NOT go to the gym. (1)
There’s no accountability and we’re more likely to burnout without the tools to show the progress being made and someone in your corner encouraging you throughout. How enlightening would it be if you started your wellness journey with a consultation and baseline measurements to track your progress towards your goals? At MedHouse, it is our mission to do just that!
We do this by utilizing Styku, a 3D Body Scan that uses infrared light to measure your body composition precisely and safely. Like a remote control, light is emitted from the Styku and then bounces off objects reflecting to the sensor tower. Connected to the sensor is a turntable which slowly spins you around so that a depth image is created with measurements of the body.
Before Styku, we would eagerly pinch the fat on our bodies to plug in the numbers and receive a body density value. This process is outdated, discouraging, and invasive. A 3D Body Scan allows for you to view yourself with a holistic objective showing body composition, surface area, volumes, and ratios. These measurements help make predictions about disease risk, body fat percentage, level of fitness, and how those measure within your age range and gender.
The best part about Styku is that the first session only marks the beginning of your journey! We encourage our members leave the scale and tape measure behind and get an updated scan every month! We take that data and bring in the encouragement by reviewing results, tracking progress, and setting new goals.
We all have different lifestyles, body types, and ideas of what is optimal for us. What if my goals are to lose fat around my waist? Styku identifies landmarks on your body to measure and compare the circumference and volume of the given region from each session. Whether your goal is to lose fat, build muscle, or get toned – you’ll feel more confident and excited by your hard work when your results show increased bone density, improved body composition, and fat loss. Styku allows users to enjoy their wellness journey before having to lose inches so what you receive is more than losing 5 pounds and the short-lived gratification of attaining your “destination” weight.
Styku uses data from the World Health Organization to provide predictions on disease risk but does not make diagnosis nor does it treat disease. The scanner is non-invasive and is safe for pregnant woman or those with pacemakers. Your Styku sessions will have the best results when working in conjunction with a lifestyle that incorporates nutrition, exercise, and a mindfulness routine.
