We’re proud to use only medical-grade technology trusted by top researchers and clinicians worldwide. Our Horizon Hologic wi DEXA provides the gold standard in body composition and bone health analysis, while the Korr CardioCoach Pro delivers precise VO₂ Max and Resting Metabolic Rate testing to help you optimize training, recovery, and nutrition.

Every test, every session is designed with one goal in mind: to give you the most accurate insights into your health so you can make smarter decisions, stay stronger longer, and live life at your peak.

Our Tech

HOLOGIC HORIZON WI DEXA

The Hologic Horizon Wi is a state-of-the-art dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scanner that delivers highly accurate and detailed body composition and bone density assessments. It does more than just read bone mineral density — it gives you a full picture of:

  • Fat mass vs. lean mass

  • Regional muscle balance

  • Visceral (deep) fat

  • Bone health and structural integrity

  • Fracture risk indicators and vascular calcification

What sets it apart:

  • Ultra-fast, high-resolution detectors — Ceramic, multi-element digital detectors capture crisp images with minimal noise, improving clarity and measurement precision. Hologic+1

  • OnePass™ scanning — The system sweeps in a single, continuous pass, reducing image distortion and overlap errors common with older techniques. Hologic

  • Dynamic Calibration™ — Real-time pixel-by-pixel calibration ensures long-term consistency and accuracy in repeated measurements. Hologic+1

  • Advanced body composition analytics — The Horizon Wi includes Hologic’s Advanced Body Composition tools (with InnerCore™ visceral fat assessment) for a deeper, more clinically useful breakdown beyond what many other scanners provide. Hologic+2Hologic+2

  • Fast scans with clinical utility — Whole-body measurements can be completed in minutes, making it feasible for use in performance, medical, and wellness settings. Hologic DXA+1

In short: the Horizon Hologic Wi gives you reliable, high-fidelity insights into your body’s composition and bone health — turning raw data into actionable health and performance intelligence.

KORR CARDIO COACH PRO

The Korr CardioCoach Pro is a high-precision metabolic and performance assessment system built to deliver deep insight into your cardiovascular fitness and metabolic rate. It captures real-time respiratory gas exchange data to empower data-driven training, recovery, and nutrition strategies.

Key Capabilities & Features

  • VO₂ Max & Sub-Max Testing
    The Pro system measures maximal oxygen consumption (VO₂ Max) and also supports sub-maximal protocols, with algorithms that extrapolate full VO₂ Max when a true max effort isn’t reached. korr.com+1

  • Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) Measurement
    At rest, the device quantifies the oxygen uptake to determine the number of calories your body uses just to sustain basic functions — the metabolic baseline. korr.com+1

  • Respiratory Exchange Ratio (RER / RQ)
    Tracks the ratio of CO₂ produced to O₂ consumed during exercise and at rest. This reveals the relative contribution of fats versus carbohydrates as energy sources. korr.com+1

  • Threshold Detection & Training Zones
    The system pinpoints your Aerobic (AeT) and Anaerobic Threshold (AT), enabling precise heart rate and workload zones tailored to your physiology. korr.com+1

  • Detailed Data & Quality Metrics
    Continuous measurements of VO₂, VCO₂, workload, heart rate, and ventilation are plotted over time. A quality score is generated to ensure the tests meet validity standards. korr.com+1

  • Smart Integration & Workflow
    • Wireless heart rate pick-up (Bluetooth) for streamlined testing. korr.com+1
    • O₂ sensor self-calibration and replaceability. korr.com+1
    • Compatible with ergometers, treadmills, and smart training hardware. korr.com+2korr.com+2
    • Results export, email delivery, and integration with Korr’s CardioCoach app for ongoing client engagement.

NOVA Body Lab’s Founders

In March 2025, our founders Christine and Lauren, both Falls Church natives, sat down to talk about the potential of bringing advanced longevity services to the community. From that conversation, NOVA Body Lab was born.

Both shared a common vision: to live long, healthy lives with their families and to help others do the same. With that shared purpose, they set out full speed ahead — creating NOVA Body Lab as a place where science, technology, and personal growth come together for the good of the community.
