Breast Thermography: Spring 2020

Hi Everyone! 

During this time, we are here to support you. Your Breast Thermography visit is very important to us, and I hope it is to you as well. 

The team at The Drugless Doctors are following all health and government guidelines; however, here are a few more pre-appointment tips that can make your session with me both quick and easy: 

1. Any questions you may have will be answered at your consultation.

2. If you would prefer not to wear a robe – wear something that you can easily take off (or drop-down) – so your body will be easily uncovered to your waist.  

3. Bring your own hairpins, accessories, while remembering all hair has to be off the neck. We will have some for use, but I know you might feel more comfortable having your own apparel.

4. Think about putting your jewelry in an envelope before coming in so you may put back on once you are back in your car.  

These first three tips are essential to note and I desire to make your experience smooth and straightforward for you to have the best experience there is. 

Here are some additional recommendations before your session:   

-No matter if this is your first or 15th breast thermography session, you need to review the “What You Need to Know” sheet. There are always new tips added – and following these guidelines will bring clarity and the right thumbprint to your pictures. 

-Please arrive at least 5 minutes before your scheduled appointment. Often I am ready for you, I am very conscious of being on time for both you and the next person after you. I will do my best to have you in and out and on your way. 

-MOST IMPORTANT: come with your paperwork all filled out and ready.

If, for some reason, you do not have them that day with you, we will have documents for you to fill out at the front desk, but you must inform the front desk associate; this will add to your appointment time – so please be there 15 minutes ahead of the scheduled time. This gives you time to think about your answers and fill out with the most clarity. 

Short Cuts for Forms 

• First Breast Thermography, OR Yearly Scan: Fill out all paperwork, remembering to sign and date.  

• If it is your Second Scan (establishing your baseline – 3 month after first), or scan that was recommended by your report doctor, only fill out the paperwork if there are any changes. List only the changes since your previous scan. 

• If you have previously been diagnosed with breast cancer, please fill out the form that states that clearly. If you have never had breast cancer, ignore this form. 

I look forward to our time together – and if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email us at info@druglessdrs.com before the day of thermography.   

Our office number is 440-471-4200 if you have any questions!

What Is Breast Thermography?

We are so happy to offer breast thermography to our female practice members. In a recent blog, we shared our most recent episode on breast health and today we are going to look at strategies for healthy breasts, including thermography, and if it is something for you to consider having.

The Drugless Doctor’s Strategy for Healthy Breasts!

Why does this matter to you?

American Cancer Society 2017 stats- 1/8 women will develop breast cancer in their life time, 85% of them with no risk factors, a woman’s risk DOUBLES if they have a first degree relative (sister, mother, grandmother).

1/3 women treated will be treated unnecessarily with mammograms- false positives, unnecessary procedures.

Why? 3rd leading cause of death in America today is MEDICAL ERROR (John Hopkins study 2016).

How our body works together- Liver & Lymphatic System

Cancer is caused by changes in a cell's DNA – its genetic "blueprint." Some of these changes may be inherited from our parents, while others may be caused by outside exposures, which are often referred to as environmental factors. Environmental factors can include a wide range of exposures, such as:

1. Lifestyle factors (nutrition, tobacco use, physical activity, etc.)

2. Naturally occurring exposures (ultraviolet light, radon gas, infectious agents, etc.)

3. Medical treatments (chemotherapy, radiation, immune system-suppressing drugs, etc.)

4. Workplace exposures (chemicals, solvents, sprays, cleansers, vapors, air quality)

5. Household exposures (herbicides, pesticides, paint vapors, gasoline other chemicals)

6. Pollution (xenohormones or estrogens in water, herbicides, pesticides; also toxic air)                                          

Action Steps

Focus on green vegetables (decrease estrogen in your body).

Breast Thermography & Self-breast examination

Avoid soy, soda, liver stressing meds and canned food; eat organic foods.

Breast Thermography Part II

We recently began Breast Thermography as a service at our practice, the only wellness and health practitioner to offer this treatment in Northeast Ohio. Since we began, we have seen amazing results with the ladies who have sought out this drugless approach. Below is updated information regarding the procedure. Please share with your friends or family who would benefit and contact us to schedule a time that works for you. 

Thermography (DITI) is a clinical test of physiology. It is a valuable procedure for alerting your doctor to changes that can indicate early stage of breast disease. DITI uses Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging technology to record and assess your breast health with no dangerous side effects. The benefits of Thermography (DITI) are that it offers the opportunity of earlier detection of breast disease than through breast self-examination, doctor examination, or mammography alone. It detects the subtle physiologic changes that accompany breast pathology, whether it is cancer or fibrocystic disease. Your doctors can then plan accordingly and lay out a careful program to further diagnose and/or monitor you during after any treatment. A certified Clinical Thermographer will record your history and take thermal images during a 20 minute private and discreet appointment. You will need two sets of imaging done approximately three months apart to establish a baseline of your stable pattern. Your thermograms will be kept on record and compared with your annual return to detect any changes in your pattern that may indicate breast pathology. Your results are reported quickly by certified doctors and include all color images taking during your test. It takes years for a tumor to grow, thus the earliest possible indication of abnormality is important to allow for the earliest possible treatment and intervention. DITI’s role in monitory breast health is to help in early detection and monitoring of abnormal physiology.

Vitamin D & Women's Health

Did you know vitamin D can help prevent breast cancer? Dr. Casen suggests why adding a few drops to your nutrition routine everyday can restore optimal health. For additional information, please visit this page.

If you also have questions about our new breast thermography service and how it can help you, please contact us.

A few weeks ago we introduced breast thermography as our newest service to help you towards optimal health restoration. Today, Dr. Casen continues the conversation about why you should consider liquid iodine and applying it topically to certain organs. For more information, please visit this link.
