Why Thermography?
Early Detection Matters!

November – December 2024 • Vol 4, No 13
Thermography scans generate a thermal map of the body showing areas that are too hot, too cold, or present with abnormal patterns.
These thermal changes or patterns identify: inflammation, congestion (poor detoxification), and/or injury in the body. It can also identify the underlying causes of symptoms, which could be due to dental problems, musculoskeletal imbalances, toxins, pathogens, or emotional stress.
Assessing these thermal patterns provides an in-depth look at potential health problems and changes in organ system function.
This early detection can be life-saving for women at risk for breast cancer. Thermography can also be used to detect thyroid dysfunction, musculoskeletal injuries, and dental inflammation. It is also a useful tool for monitoring healing progress and evaluating the effectiveness of treatments.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?
Thermography helps in developing a targeted treatment plan specific to individual needs. The visual evidence helps to educate and motivate the patient.
- Thermography is noninvasive.
- Thermography doesn’t emit any radiation.
- Thermography serves as an additional diagnostic tool for many conditions.
- Breast cancer thermography is a helpful addition to breast-cancer screening tests.
WHAT IS INFLAMMATION?
Inflammation is the body’s natural response to injury, illness or stress, and it is a normal part of a healthy immune response and the healing process. However, inflammation can become chronic if the underlying cause is not addressed. Chronic inflammation keeps the immune system on overdrive, and the resulting long-term, unresolved stress on the body drains the capacity of the immune system to deal with other stressors. Thermography will give the patient the information they need to address these issues.
There is now broad consensus that long-term inflammation contributes to the onset of many chronic conditions. It is critical to resolve the underlying cause of the inflammation to give your immune system a fighting chance to heal.
WHAT WE DO / HOW WE MONITOR:
We provide a health assessment in the form of a written report. This report tells you what the thermal patterns in your study mean, what the key areas of focus are, and what the treatment plan should be. Follow-up scans show changes in the thermal map and provide a visual assessment of the effectiveness of your treatment protocol.
