InBody-measurements 2.-3.11.2022 at Kontinkangas and Linnanmaa campuses

In InBody measurement, a very small electrical current is conducted through the body from the hand and foot electrodes. Body tissues and fluids have an effect on the flow of electrical current and this can be used to analyze the composition of the body. The measurement is done by standing with bare feet in the InBody device. The measurement takes about a minute and you will receive a result report with interpretation instructions.

UniMove organizes body composition measurements on campuses:

  • Wed 2.11. at 9-15 Linnanmaa, orange coat racks
