Thermograms
Save money on initial thermogram! A $245 value for $150! Applies only with hormone consult with Sue Horton or Carolyn Walker. You will be able to compare your baseline breast thermogram to a follow up thermogram to monitor effects of healing breast tissue interventions. This will assess breast tissue improvement after hormone and nutrient balancing. If interested, your thermogram results can be included in a study on the effects of early preventive interventions in breast tissue health. Also, our technicians are now trained to do full-body thermograms.
Our technicians are now trained to do full-body thermograms. Also, we can image specific areas of the body such as the head/neck for thyroid activity or possible dental infections. As an example, the majority of the time, dental infections do not cause much pain yet can undermine our health. Thermography verified inflammation in the area where a recent patient’s had a concern about a tooth…her dentist’s standard x-ray did not. |
We recommend women follow guidelines for Breast Thermography issued by the American Cancer Society. You will then be able to compare your baseline breast thermogram to follow-up thermograms to monitor effects of healing breast tissue interventions. Monitoring can assess breast tissue improvement after hormone and nutrient balancing. If interested, your thermogram results can be included in a study on the effects of early preventive interventions in breast tissue health.
Breast Thermography Guidelines for Early Detection

Understanding Your Risk Rating
All infrared breast examinations are placed in a specific TH (thermobiological) risk category. Your risk of future breast cancer, or the chance that a cancerous tumor is present, increases with TH3 ratings and above.

Thermography of Iowa
Thermography of Iowa is dedicated to providing information and services relating to breast health, breast cancer information and individualized breast cancer risk assessment. Research suggests that prevention and early detection of breast tissue changes can help prevent breast cancer from developing and increases breast cancer survival rates. Current research has determined that If breast cancer is discovered in its earliest stages, 95% cure rates are possible.
Thermography of Iowa is committed to helping women (and men) learn more about prevention and early discovery of invasive tumor growth by using breast thermography. Breast Thermography can warn women up to 10 years before any other procedure that cancerous cells may be developing.
Contact Lisa Walknitz, CPhT, at (515) 252-7688, to set up an appointment at Thermography of Iowa at Central Iowa Compounding. Go to the following web page/scroll toward the bottom to read the policy/procedure form stating consult fees: Breast Health History Form.pdf
Contact Sue Horton, RPh, to set up a consult at Central Iowa Compounding at 515-252-7688. Sue works with health care practitioners to help evaluate/assess/make recommendations based on the outcome of the consult.
Did you know?
- Women with a family history are definitely at greater risk, but 75% of women who get breast cancer have no family history of the disease.
- Since the single greatest risk factor for the development of breast cancer is lifetime exposure to estrogen, normalizing the balance of the hormones in the breast may be the first and most significant step in prevention.
- Do you know that 23% of all breast cancers occur in women under 49? This is the most common cancer in women in this age group. Breast cancers in younger women are usually more aggressive and have poorer survival rates. Breast thermography offers younger women a sensitive non-invasive (no radiation and painless) addition to their regular breast health check-ups beginning with baseline screening at age 20.
