At West Side Chiropractic, we believe in “testing, not guessing.” While X-rays show us the structure of your spine, an Electrical Thermography Scan shows us the function of your nervous system. This state-of-the-art, computerized diagnostic tool allows us to see how your nerves are communicating with your body, helping us pinpoint the exact source of pain, even when it’s hidden deep within the soft tissues.
Your nervous system controls your body’s internal temperature by regulating blood flow. When a spinal nerve is irritated or “pinched” (a condition called subluxation), it causes an abnormal heat signature on the skin’s surface.
Our thermography technology uses highly sensitive infrared sensors to measure these tiny temperature variations along your spine.
We use this technology for every new patient because it provides an objective baseline of your health. The benefits include:
The scan is fast, painless, and non-invasive.
