Lab-tests
Lab tests prior to surgery refer to a standard panel of tests performed to ensure a patient is suitable for surgery and to minimize risks and complications during and after the operation. It also provides a good overview of the general state of health. In our comprehensive vitality program, we also offer other blood tests at a favorable price. For example, you can do your annual check-up or a deeper analysis with more precise, individually tailored tests. This can of course be done even if you have not booked an operation. Regardless of which lab test you choose, an InBody body composition measurement and a red light therapy session are always included.
Inbody scanning
InBody body composition analysis is a body composition analysis that provides you with quick and reliable information about your body and its composition. In addition to the distribution of muscle and fat mass, you also receive information about your muscle balance, the difference between the sides of the body, and the amount of visceral fat.
How does Inbody scanning work?
During the measurement, a so-called bioimpedance wave with eight measuring points is used. A weak current is sent through the body, as different tissues in the body have different resistance (conduct current differently), which helps determine the body composition. The current is very weak and you do not feel anything when it is sent through the body.
The test takes approximately 2-3 minutes and is quick and smooth, performed by staff at the clinic. The measurement process is simple – you stand barefoot on a platform while holding two handles. For the best results, the measurement should be done before breakfast. If you measure at other times of the day, you should not have eaten for at least two hours. The most important thing is to have the same conditions for each measurement in order to get comparable results. Because it does not use empirical data, which can affect the test results, InBody body composition measurement is used in research and elite sports, and has a 98% comparability to DXA scans (DXA is a bone mineral measurement).
What can you measure?
When you step on a scale and see that you have lost a kilogram, what have you really lost? A kilogram of fat? Fluid? Muscle? By analyzing your weight and body composition, you will gain a better understanding of changes in your body in a way that you can follow closely.
An InBody analysis helps you develop a strategy based on your specific conditions and goals. It simplifies training follow-up, and the results become clearer. You get a solid foundation to create a lifestyle based on facts about your body. Being able to follow up on your efforts by seeing your current state and then measuring the change in your body composition is highly motivating.
Red Light Therapy
Everyone needs light – without light, we cannot live, and this is especially important in a country with little sunlight. The reason we offer red light therapy and infrared light during surgeries at our facility is primarily due to its positive effects on wound healing and the improvement of skin texture.
Red light therapy also has other benefits, such as rejuvenating properties through increased collagen synthesis. By exposing the skin to red light, skin cells can be stimulated to produce more collagen, which can in turn increase the firmness of the skin and reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles. In addition to promoting collagen production, red light therapy can also help improve skin texture and tone. It can help reduce the visibility of irregularities such as scars, sun damage, and pigmentation spots by promoting cell renewal and increasing blood circulation in the skin.
How does it work?
You are lying on a red light bed and being exposed to both red light and near-infrared light. The wavelengths are 660 nm red light and 850 nm near-infrared light, which is effective and completely harmless, but very health-promoting.
A major benefit of red light therapy is its ability to relieve pain. By reducing inflammation, it can provide effective pain relief for conditions such as back and neck pain.
Red light therapy is a safe and non-invasive treatment method that can be used on all skin types and skin colors. It requires no recovery time and can be easily performed using specialized devices.
Red light therapy is a natural and gentle treatment that can improve skin health and appearance. By promoting collagen production, enhancing skin texture and tone, and reducing pain and inflammation, red light therapy has become a promising tool in the world of wellness.
