HealthQuest BIA compared to VLA
Comparing the HealthQuest BIA and the Metagenics VLA systems
I am often asked the question … “Why there is such a large price difference between the HealthQuest BIA system and the Metagenics VLA system?”
The HealthQuest BIA system is priced at just $2,100 (+GST), while the Metagenics VLA system costs $8,000+. In other words the purchase price of the HealthQuest BIA system is approximately only ONE THIRD of the cost of the Metagenics VLA system.
The explanation for the price difference is very simple. Our price is designed to be much more realistic and affordable for practitioners.
Our BIA system is just as accurate and does more in providing both practitioners and clients with important diagnostic results and details. It also provides full color reports (with a cover page displaying your clinic details and Logo) that contain test results, progress results and easy-to-read and understand information for your clients.
Due to the nature of the reports created by the HealthQuest BIA system, your clients will find it much easier to understand the results which will in turn improve their compliance and success on your weight management program.
