What is the procedure?

Thermography is a method of measuring skin temperature distribution on the body over a given time. The various biochemical processes in the human body generate heat, which must be dissipated. Skin is the major route for heat dissipation, using blood as the heat exchange mechanism. Skin temperature is an indicator of aberrations in metabolism, vascular and nervous systems, as well as musculoskeletal issues.

By way of an infrared thermal imaging camera and the appropriate software, we are able to see hot or cold areas in the body, showing themselves as asymmetries, thereby indicating potential health problems.

STEP ONE:

COOLING TIME

You sit in a temperature-controlled room to allow your body to cool from any external influences. During this time, we go over the questionnaire with you that you would have already filled out.

STEP TWO:

IMAGES TAKEN

You are positioned in front of a Thermal Imaging Camera, and the technician takes non-invasive thermal images. You will be able to see yourself on the computer screen throughout the process.

STEP Three:

IMAGES Analyzed

Your images are sent out to our certified physician for analysis. This process usually takes between 5-10 working days, depending on current capacity.
