Thermography is a non-invasive screening tool which can be used to monitor health with the goal of identifying problems at an early stage before issues are able to advance. Thermography demonstrates bloodflow and heat patterns, and has been used from everything from spotting acute inflammation, nerve health problems, Neuropathy, to even more serious health issues.

Thermography is a preventive screening tool which uses a high-resolution digital thermal imaging camera and looks at heat patterns and differentials in order to indicate health risks.  This can help diagnose Neuropathy, among other things.

The imaging process by which thermography works is called DITI: Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging. With DITI a digital scanner takes infrared heat coming from the skin, and converts it to colored images. In this manner you are able to obtain a visual “map” of the body’s temperature. The variance in color indicates an increase or decrease in the body’s temperature in the different parts or regions, which could be an early warning sign that there is a problem forming. 

Depending on the category assigned and other findings from the Thermography reading, we can educate and help our patients in the Twin Cities make informed decisions about their health and how to live the life they want.

Dr. Cody Rodewald DC, BCN, and Dr. Lucas Emmerich DC have worked for years in the Twin Cities area helping patients eliminate their pain and physical dysfunction naturally.  

One of the areas they have focused on addressing is Neuropathy.  They have developed a unique approach that allows them to help get patients out of pain quickly without "traditional" care...instead they take an innovative approach that addresses nerve pain, blood flow, and nerve health which has helped many in the Twin Cities get their lives back.

The key comes from their philosophy of care.  Drs. Rodewald and Emmerich do not seek to just treat symptoms, but rather to address the ROOT CAUSE of the nerve pain and dysfunction.  And by dealing with the underlying causes of dysfunction and helping the body to heal with non-invasive therapies that get long-lasting results for their patients.
