When should you contact your healthcare provider before scheduling thermography?

Thermography can provide additional information about skin-surface temperature patterns, but sometimes it simply isn’t the first step.

If you notice a new lump, unusual ni**le discharge, skin changes, persistent pain, fever, or another new or concerning symptom, start by contacting your healthcare provider for appropriate medical evaluation.

That distinction matters to me.

Part of offering thermography responsibly is helping women understand not only what it can offer, but also when another type of care should come first.

Thermography is additional information not a substitute for medical evaluation.

What should I wear to my thermography appointment?

This is one of those little questions that can make a first appointment feel much easier when you already know the answer.

Keep it simple: comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that’s easy to remove for the areas we’ll be imaging.

And what you don’t put on can be just as important. Lotions, makeup and other products on the skin are part of the preparation instructions we’ll go over before your appointment.

You don’t have to memorize it all. When you book, you’ll receive prep instructions so you know exactly what to do before you arrive.

Comfortable. Prepared. And no wondering what you’re supposed to wear.

Hi, I’m April—the person behind the camera. 👋

I’m a Sumner County native, a mom of two boys, a longtime homeschool mom, community volunteer, and a Certified Clinical Thermographer.

But my path into wellness started long before Body in Focus.

When my first son was diagnosed with a rare disorder, I found myself doing what so many women who eventually walk into my thermography room have done:

Searching. Asking questions. Trying to understand what was happening when we didn’t seem to have all the answers.

That experience ultimately led me into massage therapy and nearly 20 years of working hands-on with the body.

And then I discovered thermography.

What fascinated me was being able to look at the body in an entirely different way.

I often describe a thermogram as a weather map of the body. It maps skin-surface temperature patterns across the areas we image and gives us another piece of physiological information to consider.

After years of hands-on bodywork, there was something incredibly compelling about having a visual way to think about patterns in the body.

I knew this was the direction I wanted to take my work.

Today, the women who come to Body in Focus remind me a lot of what originally brought me into wellness.

Some want to be proactive.

Some want another perspective as part of their breast-health picture.

And some simply tell me, “Something feels off, and I still have questions.”

I understand that desire to know more.

Thermography isn’t about promising all the answers. For me, it’s about providing another piece of information that may help you ask better questions.

And I feel incredibly fortunate that I get to provide that here in the Middle Tennessee community I’ve always called home.

If you’ve been following because something about thermography has you curious, send me a DM with the word “CURIOUS.” Tell me what’s bringing you here, and I’ll help you figure out whether thermography may be a useful addition to your health picture.

Your images don’t stop with me. 🌡️

I capture your thermography images, but I’m not the person who evaluates your study.

After your appointment, your images are submitted to physicians experienced in reviewing adjunctive infrared imaging. They evaluate and describe the thermal patterns captured during your study and provide you with a written report of their findings.

Why does that matter?

Because thermography is about patterns—and patterns need context.

I often describe a thermogram as a weather map of the body. It isn’t an internal photograph. It maps skin-surface temperature patterns across the areas we image, giving us a different kind of information about what is happening at the body’s surface.

And women come to me for very different reasons.

✨ Some are proactive about their health and want a baseline they can compare over time.

✨ Some want another perspective on their breast health, especially when they have concerns or anxiety about mammography.

✨ And some simply feel like something is off and still have questions.

Thermography isn’t going to diagnose the reason why. But those thermal patterns can provide another piece of information that may help you ask better questions and have a more informed conversation with your healthcare provider.

That’s why the technology, imaging process, patterns—and who reviews your images—all matter.

Thermography is adjunctive and does not replace medically recommended imaging.

Wondering if thermography makes sense for you?

DM me “THERMOGRAPHY” and tell me what you’re hoping to learn. I’ll help you decide which study may be the right fit.

The camera matters. But so does everything that happens around it. 📷

When I started Body in Focus Thermography, I didn’t want to simply own a thermal camera. I wanted a system and a process designed specifically for clinical thermography.

That’s why I invested in a Med-Hot FLIR A700 infrared camera system paired with Med-Hot software.

But good thermography is about more than the equipment.

I follow standardized imaging positions and protocols, carefully control the imaging environment, and give each client time to acclimate before imaging.

Why does all of that matter?

Because thermography is about patterns.

Think of a thermogram a little like a weather map of your body. 🌡️ Instead of showing internal anatomy, the camera maps skin-surface temperature patterns across the areas we image.

Those patterns and how they compare across the body and over time are the information we’re interested in.

For someone who wants to be proactive about her health, wants another perspective as part of her breast-health picture, or simply feels like something is off and still has questions, thermography can provide another piece of information that may help you ask better questions.

And the process doesn’t end when I put the camera down.

Your images are submitted for review by an independent physician trained in medical thermography, who provides your written report.

Technology matters.
Technique matters.
Consistency matters.
And who’s reviewing your images matters.

The Med-Hot Thermal Imaging System has FDA 510(k) clearance as a telethermographic system for adjunctive use. Thermography does not replace mammography or other imaging recommended by your healthcare provider.

Curious what thermography could add to YOUR health picture?

DM me “THERMOGRAPHY” and tell me what you’re hoping to learn. I’ll help you decide whether thermography and which study may be a good fit.

Why might your thermography report recommend a follow-up? 🤔

Because your first thermogram is just the beginning of the story.

Your first study gives us a snapshot of your skin-surface temperature patterns at that point in time. When a follow-up is recommended, returning within that timeframe gives the interpreting physician another set of images to compare with your previous study.

That comparison can help show whether those thermal patterns appear stable or have changed over time.

This is also how we begin establishing your individual thermal baseline, because the value isn’t just in one set of colorful images. It’s in having consistent imaging that can be compared over time.

And that’s exactly why I encourage clients not to forget that recommended follow-up.

A follow-up isn’t an “all clear,” and thermography doesn’t replace mammography or other screening recommended by your healthcare provider. It’s another piece of information to bring into the bigger picture of your health.

Does the equipment behind your thermogram matter? 📷

Yes but the camera is only one part of getting quality, consistent images.

At Body in Focus Thermography, we’ve invested in the FLIR A700, paired with the Med-Hot system, because image quality matters. This high-resolution thermal camera allows us to capture clear, detailed images of skin-surface temperature patterns that can be reviewed and compared over time.

But even a great camera is only as good as the process behind it.

Room temperature, proper acclimation, following your prep instructions, consistent positioning, and careful image capture all matter. That’s why there’s much more happening during your appointment than simply pointing a thermal camera and taking a picture.

Once your imaging is complete, your images are submitted for physician review, and you receive a report describing the thermal observations.

I want you to feel confident not only in the equipment we use, but in the entire process behind your thermogram.

Your health. Your story. Our focus.

Do you have dense breast tissue? Here’s something worth knowing. 🤍

Dense breast tissue can make mammograms more difficult to interpret. That’s one reason I believe in looking at breast health as a bigger picture…not relying on any one piece of information alone.

Thermography offers a different kind of information. It records patterns in skin surface temperature and can be used as an adjunctive tool alongside your recommended breast health care.

It doesn’t replace mammography or other recommended breast imaging, and it doesn’t diagnose breast cancer. What it can do is add another piece of information to the conversation especially for women who want to be more engaged and informed about their breast health over time.

Because sometimes it isn’t about choosing one tool over another.

It’s about understanding the whole picture.

Your story. Your health. Our focus. 🤍
