đĄïž What is Thermography?
Thermography, also known as Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging (DITI), is a non-invasive, radiation-free imaging technique that measures heat patterns and blood flow in the body. It uses a special infrared camera to detect subtle temperature variations on the skinâs surface.
These temperature changes often reflect underlying physiological processes, such as:
These temperature changes often reflect underlying physiological processes, such as:
- Inflammation
- Circulatory issues
- Nerve dysfunction
- Muscle and joint injuries
- Early signs of disease, especially in breast tissue

đ Visual confirmation of what youâre feeling.
Sometimes we know somethingâs off in our body⊠even when other tests come back ânormal.â
Thermography offers a unique way to see pain and dysfunction, giving you real insight into patterns that other imaging tools might miss. It can reveal the true source of unexplained painâeven when it shows up in one area but originates from another.
đ„ A deeper look at inflammation and injury.
Thermal scans also help assess the extent and severity of injury by measuring temperature differences across the body. Areas radiating excess heat often reflect inflammation, and Thermography can visually confirm (or gently challenge) your own experience of pain.
While X-rays, MRIs, and ultrasounds show anatomical structure, Thermography shows functionâlike blood flow, nerve irritation, and metabolic activity. Itâs a powerful complement to other tests and often helps complete the diagnostic picture.

Stress Fracture â EXTENT OF INJURY:
A football player had persistent pain missed by X-ray. Thermography detected heat in the area. A follow-up bone scan confirmed the stress fracture.
Back, Neck & Headache Pain:
Thermal scans revealed clear pain patterns that supported a targeted care plan. Thermography also helped track progress, confirming which treatments were working.
Dental Issues & TMJ:
Inflammation in the jaw, gums, and lymph nodes showed up clearly, leading to a TMJ diagnosis and timely referral. New research links oral inflammation to systemic diseaseâThermography may detect these patterns years before symptoms appear.
Unexplained Pain â Vascular Clues:
This patientâs thermal scan uncovered vascular inflammation that had gone undiagnosed. Thermography often helps redirect care when the original diagnosis doesnât match the pain experience.
Arthritis â Pinpointing the Source:
Left knee pain was traced to arthritis using Thermography, guiding a more accurate treatment path.
Cardiovascular Health:
One scan revealed increased heat in the carotid arteries. Further testing showed a 60% blockageâThermography offered a safe, early signal to take action.
Thermography is safe, painless, and non-invasive, and it empowers you with real-time insight into your health.
Letâs make sure your care is aligned with what your body is truly experiencing.

đ What It Can Reveal
- Breast health & hormonal changes
- Lymphatic congestion & inflammation
- Digestive or immune dysfunction
- Early cardiovascular changes
- Nerve and muscle pain patterns
- Dental inflammation (including TMJ)
- Chronic illness risk & recovery tracking
Thermal imaging gives us visual confirmation of what you may be sensingâoften before traditional tests show anything. It also shows how your body is functioning, not just what it looks like anatomically.
đŹ Why It's Different from Other Imaging
Most traditional scans (MRI, CT, X-ray) look at structureâbones, tissues, organs.
Thermography shows functionâinflammation, circulation, nerve activity.
It can:
- Detect signs of arthritis, injuries, or vascular disease before you feel symptoms
- Pinpoint pain in one area that may be caused by dysfunction in another
- Guide treatment decisions and measure effectiveness over time
- You can even see your healing process as inflammation patterns begin to resolve.
đ Why Women Love It for Breast Health
Unlike mammograms, Thermography can pick up patterns of inflammationâlike in inflammatory breast cancer, which may not present as a lump and can go undetected by conventional scans.
To create a clear picture of your unique thermal patterns, we start with two scans within a 3-month window. This helps us set your personal baseline. From there, we recommend annual scans to monitor for change.
For women in their 30sâ50s with denser breast tissueâor anyone seeking a safer, gentler alternative for regular breast health screeningâThermography is a life-changing addition.

Before and After Acupuncture images
Acupuncture Mechanism Studied By Thermography
The left picture is the before acupuncture, the red color region means the pain or inflamed, the picture 9 doesnât show the red region, pain or inflammation significantly decreased after acupuncture treatment.
Recently, acupuncture has been shown to increase the nitric oxide levels in treated regions, resulting in increased local blood circulation. Effects on local inflammation and ischemia have also been reported.
Acupuncture appears to have effects on cortical activity, as demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography.

đŹ How It Works
You enter a temperature-controlled room and acclimate for about 10â15 minutes.
A trained technician takes infrared images using a high-resolution thermal camera.
The thermal images are analyzed by a thermologist (usually a doctor with special training) who looks for asymmetries or unusual heat patterns.
The idea is that healthy tissue emits a balanced, symmetrical heat signature, while areas of dysfunction may appear hotter (inflammation, overactivity) or cooler (poor circulation, nerve damage).

đż Frequently Asked Questions about Thermography
âš What can Thermography do for me?
Thermography is an incredible wellness tool that can detect subtle heat patterns and physiological changes in the bodyâoften long before symptoms show up. Itâs useful for identifying and tracking over 150 conditions, including:
Inflammation and circulatory issues
Early signs of breast disease
Nerve and joint pain
TMJ and dental imbalances
Hormonal shifts and immune dysfunction
Headaches, arthritis, fibromyalgia
Early indicators of diabetes or cardiovascular concerns
And so much more
Itâs also wonderful for tracking how your body responds to treatments, showing youâin living colorâwhether therapies are bringing you back into balance.
đ« What areas of the body can be scanned?
We can image your entire body or focus on specific areas of concern. Some examples include:
Breast scans for preventative insight
Head, neck, and jaw (great for TMJ or migraine evaluation)
Low back, pelvis, and legs for lumbar assessments
Torso and arms for circulatory or inflammatory issues
Your scan can be as comprehensive or focused as your needs and goals require.
đ„ Can Thermography detect inflammation?
Yes! And this is one of the most powerful aspects of it.
Inflammation is often the earliest signal that something is off in the body. Thermography creates a visual âthermal fingerprintâ that reflects blood flow and heat emissionsâtwo markers of underlying inflammation. By detecting these signs early, we can support your body proactively, helping prevent deeper issues before they form.
đž How is Thermography different from other imaging tools?
Most medical imagingâlike mammograms, ultrasounds, and MRIsâfocuses on anatomy and structure (looking for lumps, masses, or physical damage).
Thermography is differentâit looks at function.
It shows changes in physiology, like abnormal blood vessel activity or metabolic changes that may occur before something becomes visible structurally.
This means thermography can detect early warning signs of developing disease, including cancers that arenât yet detectable through other tests. It's also not affected by dense breast tissue, hormone therapy, or implantsâmaking it a beautiful complement to your other screenings.
đ Why is breast thermography such a helpful tool?
Most cancers grow silently for years before they become big enough to be seen on a mammogram or felt by hand. Thermal imaging can pick up heat signatures and blood supply formation as early as the pinhead-sized stageâlong before it becomes the size of a pea.
Itâs also one of the only tools that can detect inflammatory breast cancer, which typically doesnât form a lump and may be missed by other screening methods.
đ Why do I need a second breast scan in 3 months?
The key to thermography is comparison over time. Your first scan gives us an initial imageâbut your second scan (done around 90 days later) shows us if anything is changing.
This two-scan process helps establish your unique thermal baseline, which we use for all future comparisons. If your pattern stays consistent, thatâs great! Youâll move into annual imaging. If we see changes, weâll explore next steps together with your full health team.
đ Is this safe for younger women?
Absolutelyâand itâs highly recommended. About 1 in 4 breast cancers occur in women under 49, and these cancers tend to be more aggressive. But younger women often arenât offered routine mammograms.
Thermography is a perfect early-prevention tool for women in their 20s, 30s, and 40sâespecially those with dense breast tissue or a family history of breast cancer.
đŒ Breast Thermography Schedule (General Guidelines):
Age 23: Baseline Thermogram
Ages 23â29: Thermogram every 3 years
Age 30 and up: Thermogram annually
High risk clients: More frequent imaging, as needed
đ” What does it cost?
Prices range from $255 to $555, depending on the region(s) scanned.
All scans are interpreted by Board Certified MDs who specialize in medical thermography, and youâll receive a full report and your imagesâusually within 48 business hours.
đ How should I prepare for my appointment?
To get the most accurate scan possible, please follow these simple guidelines:
No vigorous exercise, hot baths, or showers within 2 hours before
Avoid lotion, oils, deodorant, makeup, or shaving on the area to be scanned
No massage or sun exposure/sunburn on the day of your scan
No smoking within 2 hours of your appointment
Your body needs to be in a calm, neutral state to give us the clearest image.
đł Does insurance cover Thermography?
Thermography is considered a screening tool, not a diagnostic procedure, so most insurance plans do not cover it.
