     How it Works      


​1. BLOOD PERFUSION: Thermal imaging detects energy in the form of minute changes in
temperature to tenths of a degree Celsius. The blood is a supply line, transporting
everything that the body needs to function efficiently. It is in constant metabolic
movement: warming, oxygenating, carrying nutrients to every organ, removing waste,
protecting, and healing. When the body needs healing, it summons blood to the site, thus
creating heat. Sometimes, if a specific organ is in distress, even mild distress, blood will
automatically be redirected from the surface to supply extra nutrients to the organ. This
can create a cool area on the skin. Because there is a map of the area of the skin that is
directly related to each specific organ, it is possible, due to a cooler area on the skin, to
identify a potential problem. Thermography is not diagnostic for any specific disease, but
it can alert the thermal observer to investigate further. So patterns, whether they
represent expected, warmer, or cooler temperatures, give valuable information to
anyone who is knowledgeable about thermal physiology.

2. METABOLIC CHANGES: The skin not only protects us from the outside world, but it is a
functioning endocrine organ on its own! It produces all hormones and communicates with
all organs and biological processes in the body. How perfect that we are observing the
skin and its response to hormonal and other endocrine processes. It is the body’s ultimate
communication with the outside world, all there for us to observe with our infrared
camera! Because these automatic responses function optimally in a relatively healthy
person, thermal imaging is most beneficial when observing these changes in a relatively
healthy person. This makes thermography the perfect tool to observe changes that
eventually, over many years, can become irreversible disease. By then disease
management is the only option. This is currently the primary function of our world-wide
health system today. If used appropriately, infrared imaging — which is safe, accurate and
affordable — can be the discovery tool of choice, especially for the doctor who practices
preventive strategies and for the patients who value finding the root cause. So the
thermographer uses that FDA approved device that they call a camera… which actually
isn’t a camera in the way you are used to.  It’s actually a sensor. It senses energy emission
coming off the body. The thermographer captures images of what this sensor picks up
and then sends them to be interpreted by Physicians who have special training to read
and understand these images. Then they send back a report of what they find for you to
keep or take to your doctor. It is completely safe for all ages, painless and has no contact
with the body. It is a valuable tool used by a healthcare practitioner to evaluate the health
of the body. 



3. WHAT ARE THE INTERPRETING PHYSICIANS LOOKING FOR? A healthy body is expected to
be thermally symmetrical. The Interpreting Physicians are looking for signs of significant
asymmetry which can show valuable indications such as; natural healing signs of
inflammation, blood profusion, lymphatic congestion, injury, hormonal imbalance and
much more. After evaluating these areas they will assess their level of concern (low,
moderate or high) as it relates to the thermal patterns. They will also recommend a
follow-up appointment for further evaluation, if necessary, or to establish a stable
baseline. A baseline is the first scan and the follow up scans give more information.

4. Thermography isn’t just for breast scans. Thermal scans may detect possible thermal
related changes which can indicate Inflammation in other areas of the body as well. It’s
the only scan that shows inflammation. And as the World Health Organization has said,
Inflammation is the most common seed of the most challenging chronic diseases in the
body. And the World Health Organization ranks disease as the greatest threat to human
health. Worldwide 3 of 5 people will die due to a chronic inflammatory disease. So
inflammation is the SEED of DISEASE in the body.



5. Wouldn’t you like to catch it when it’s just starting, before it progresses to chronic
disease?
That’s the main idea behind Thermography. It is a tool you can use for your own Health
Discovery to be aware of your bodies health. It can be used as a preventative to catch
disease even before you are having symptoms.
I need to note that Thermography is Sensitive…not specific. It may suggest other
conditions like:
o Accumulation of toxins.
o Adrenal Fatigue.
o Allergies and sensitivities.
o Arthritis
o Dental issues and TMJ
o Digestive disorders
o Fibrocystic changes.
o Fibromyalgia
o Hormonal Imbalance.
o Lymphatic congestion.
o Recent Alcohol Use.
o Skin cancer
o Stress.
o Thyroid issues.
o Unexplained pain.
o ….and so many other things.
It correlates with history or findings from other testing.
