Your Journey to proactive wellness begins here

Thermography uses a high-grade infrared camera to measure temperature variations on the surface of the skin. These variations are displayed as a thermal image, where different colors represent different temperatures differentials. This allows us to observe heat patterns and identify irregularities that may indicate underlying health issues.

Yes, thermography is completely safe. It is non-invasive, safe, and does not require physical contact with your body. It’s suitable for people of all ages and can be used repeatedly without any risk.

Our Thermography equipment received FDA 510K clearance, signifying it meets established safety and effectiveness criteria for medical devices. Medical Thermography in general is specifically cleared for use as a supportive adjunctive tool to be used alongside other medical evaluations. It’s worth noting that the FDA uses the term “cleared” rather than “approved” when referring to devices like thermographic equipment. This distinction highlights that thermography has been evaluated and deemed appropriate for its intended purpose, but the terminology differs from that used for pharmaceuticals or medical procedures.

Thermal images are typically analyzed by trained professionals with expertise in thermographic imaging. We ensure that every report is reviewed by experts, like MDs, DOs, or Licensed Naturopathic Physicians trained to interpret the thermal patterns and variances or providing you with detailed insights.

Yes, there are a few simple guidelines to follow before your session to ensure the most accurate results: • Avoid using lotions, deodorants, or powders on the areas being imaged. • Refrain from sunbathing or using tanning beds 24 hours before your session. • Avoid vigorous exercise or hot baths immediately before the appointment. Your technician will provide you with a full list of preparation steps when you schedule your appointment.
