What is Bioelectrical Impedance Measurement (BIM)?
BioElectrical Impedance Measurement (BIM) measures the electrical conductivity between specific points on the body by creating a “circuit”, and then measuring the flow of electricity between those points. BIM devices have been consistently used in medicine to non-invasively obtain important health information. Some of the more recognizable devices include EKG’s used to measure heart and brain function. There is substantial scientific information supporting BIM testing. Your health professional has been trained to use BIM to secure valuable detailed information about your body that will assist in more accurately determining the best course of action for your individual needs.
