thermography
Medical thermal imaging, or thermography, is a discovery tool that creates a digital road map of your body with temperature patterns, these patterns may show abnormalities that can be indicative of inflammation.
Inflammation is the first sign of degenerative diseases and other chronic health conditions. Early detection of this inflammation may help to prevent those health conditions from even developing in the first place.
Why Should You Look Into Thermography?
It’s not just for breast health, this discovery tool is used for full body health screening. Inflammation is the body’s way of signaling that the immune system is busy fighting. Detecting inflammation with thermography is crucial because 90% of all diseases start with inflammation. Detecting this early is a game changer for your health. Getting annual scans and monitoring your heat patterns is truly a road map to your health and longevity.
A thermography scan looks at every aspect of the body, as well as the different “flow systems”, lymphatic, digestive, hormonal, and nervous. It looks for blockages, stagnation, and imbalances. The basis for the screening is tracking inflammation, which is the origin point for many disease processes.
Most of the time you go see a doctor because a disease or illness has already started showing signs and you don’t feel well. This is where you are now playing defense trying to “fix” a problem that already exists. Thermography helps you get on the offense and prevent the disease before it takes root and then you are trying to figure out how to treat it.
Many like to compare thermography with mammograms, they are not the same, it’s comparing apples to oranges. Mammograms as well as MRI’s, PET Scans and CT Scans are all structural, where thermography is functional. Structural means something is already there. Functional means it looks at the flow of your body and picks up patterns that are starting to get off track, this can give you a heads up before it becomes a structural issue.
