Thermography, also known as digital infrared thermal imaging (DITI), is a completely non-invasive imaging technique that detects and records heat patterns on the surface of the body. It uses a special infrared camera to measure temperature variations, which can indicate inflammation, poor circulation, or abnormal tissue activity.
Thermography is a powerful tool for sports chiropractors when combined with other non-invasive methods.
Depending on your needs, Dr. Sheps may recommend one or more treatments.
