Mainstream media, whether TV or radio or online news or Facebook or wherever is NOT where you get the full picture about how you can protect your health during this pandemic.  On the other hand, have you noticed they DO do a good job of keeping everyone in fear?

I see this time as an opportunity for health education instead of spreading fear of illness. 

You may be wondering: Is there a way to check on the status of my immune system?

Just because you have not gotten sick lately, does that mean your immune system is healthy? Maybe. Maybe not. I am not saying this to scare you, but to put things in perspective.

My first point of education has to do with prevention. A strong, healthy immune system is the best defense against any illness.

I realized that most people think of natural immune prevention as taking Vitamin C or Echinacea. Yes, supplements like these may play a role, but there are so many reasons that thinking like this is short-sighted and may lead you astray.

Instead, I prefer to start prevention with a reality check. There IS a way to assess your immune system, which however, it does not diagnose any illness. Instead, it can help you assess where your immune system stands now so you can take immediate steps if you need to strengthen it. 

Let me introduce you to Medical Thermography

Thermography is great at detecting heat signatures in the body. You can tell by the name: “thermo-” means “heat” and “graphy” means a technique of producing images. Therefore, thermography produces a heat image of your body that you can look at and study. It is not intended for recreational use; thermography is an important medical tool.

Medical Thermal Imaging is a scientifically established and accepted means to measure the quantity and patterns of heat emitted from the human body. A patented, FDA registered device is used. It is widely used in countries that have public health systems because of the valuable, cost-effective, life-saving information it gives.

The great thing is that it is non-invasive. You simply undress and stand in front of the thermal camera, and the camera picks up the heat coming off your body. There is no radiation, nor anything to drink, nor anything else going into your body. The camera collects the heat coming FROM your body and shows the pattern in a color image.

Medical Thermal Imaging can actually look deep into our bodies to see the status of internal organs and systems. It can tell where there is congestion as well show areas that are colder than they should be.

Where there is excess heat – that is not from an insulated part of the body such as hair or skin folds – there is inflammation. It’s that simple.

By seeing WHERE that inflammation is found, its pattern, as well as cold areas, that thermal image can be interpreted for preventative assessment. It can reveal changes which could lead to health problems long before they threaten health. It can confirm something you suspect but which there is no other ways to confirm or rule out. 

Overall, correlated with symptoms, it is a great way to find out how well your body is functioning. 

Medical use of thermography

As a medical imaging device, thermography is being used throughout the world right now to detect fevers in people. It is being used to help screen travelers as well as anyone who may have been infected with the flu or any virus.

Dr. Carol Chandler, DOM, on Infrared info dot org writes:

When properly implemented, thermography is the most efficient non-contact, cost effective and reasonably accurate solution for mass screening of individuals for elevated body temperature (EBT). It was first introduced in 2002 with the highly infectious disease called SARS (Severe, Acute Respiratory Syndrome) epidemic, which eventually spread to 29 countries. Screening to detect a potentially infected person played an important role in preventing the spread of SARS.

Much more . . .

However, its usefulness goes way beyond that. It is capable of locating areas of the lymphatic system that may be compromised or blocked. Lymphatic congestion correlates with chronic stress and/or chronic illness. It just may be the wake-up call you need about your immune system.

The function of the immune system hinges on a gland called the thymus. Medical thermal imaging will show if a thymus gland is under-active by showing a cold pattern relative to the surrounding tissues. 

This is the view of a chest with an arrow pointing to a cold pattern in the area of the thymus.

As mentioned, the thymus is an important gland which is part of the immune system.

This cold pattern is an indication of a struggling immune system.

This is a view of he back of the neck and upper back with an arrow pointing out a cold pattern.

The cold is a thermal indication of a lowered immune response

It could be from autoimmune disease or from a  challenged immune system.

Welcome to Northern Arizona Thermal Imaging

I have brought to your attention Carol Conti and NAZ Thermal Imaging before. I featured Medical Thermal Imaging in a Breast Health Awareness blog.

Carol Conti offers the Half Body Health Thermal Imaging Screen as the best way to assess your immune system’s function. In her office, it includes imagining of the head, neck, cardiovascular system, breast, and abdomen including all internal organs as well as the spine along with an interpretation and a report.

For April through May 2020, she is offering $45 off the price of this important test, bringing the price from $395 down to $350.

Do not miss this opportunity to have an immune system check-up plus so much more!

During this exceptional time, Northern Arizona Thermal Imaging office is open by appointment only. They follow the strictest CDC guidelines for disinfection and allow ample time between clients to ensure that there is no one in the waiting room. They employ a commercial grade hepa Alpine Air Purifier during office hours.

Put your mind at ease to see where your immune system stands. Carol at Northern Arizona Thermal Imaging is here to help! She even takes appointments online.

Remember, Medical Thermography is an investment in your health, and your health IS your greatest wealth.
