1. Medical Thermography is non-invasive and safe.

During a Medical Thermography* scan, your body experiences no contact or harm of any kind. Unlike, some traditional health screenings, for instance, a mammogram, you may experience unpleasant compression, poking, and prodding. In addition, you risk rupturing a malignant tumor encased during the unpleasant process. A tumor can rupture with just 22 pounds of pressure, allowing malignant cells to spread. No wonder women are in such discomfort during mammography; the machine exerts up to 42 pounds of pressure on the breasts, roughly equivalent to placing one cinder block on each breast.

Inflammation: Regarding your health, inflammation is the "silent killer." Of course, your body needs and even benefits from some inflammation, however, persistent and excessive inflammation can become a significant concern and even a sign of many serious diseases.

Acute inflammation is the body's fast-acting response to injuries and infections that seeks to eliminate harmful intruders and restore balance. In most cases, acute inflammation goes away within a few hours to days. 

Chronic inflammation begins in the same way as acute inflammation, with the body attempting to rid itself of what the immune system perceives as foreign invaders. However, it is a more gradual and subtle process. Even if the perceived threat isn't hazardous to one's health, this might become permanent. In some autoimmune diseases, the body incorrectly reacts to its tissues as if they were foreign, causing damaging inflammation. As a result, this chronic low-grade inflammation may continually simmer under the surface. Thermography can assist in locating these concerning areas that you may not know are happening in your body.

3. It can benefit the whole body.

Thermography is well known as an adjunctive screening for breast health, however, it offers so much more than that. Because Thermography can pick up skin surface temperatures on the human body it can be used for analysis by a trained thermologist. Any disease process that emits heat or decreases circulation can possibly be detected through infrared thermal imaging.

The FDA has cleared the following as adjunctive screening methods with thermography:

4. Thermography is affordable.

Some become fixated on the fact that traditional insurance does not provide coverage for thermography. However, many people are unaware of how relatively affordable it is.

Depending on the thermography lab you visit, the prices vary. At our lab, Head/Neck scans are only $229. Breast scans are $229. Upper or Lower body scans are $369. And our Full body scans are $429! Annually breast thermography scan, this cost as low as $20/month or about 63 cents a day. And as high as $35/month or about $1.18 a day for Full body scan.

In the end, there is much value in each of these scan possibilities, and the data uncovered may even change your life. That is now priceless! In the long run, proactive and preventative health care will always be less expensive. When you keep track of your body over time, you may frequently spot problems at a point where simple lifestyle modifications could dramatically improve your health. For example, if you don't have time to eat healthily today, consider how much time you will lose when you are unwell. If you lack the funds for effective early detection techniques, consider how much it would cost you if you discovered your breast cancer at stages 3 or 4.
