Thermal Infra FAQ
Welcome to our Thermal Infra FAQ page! We understand that you may have questions about this innovative technology and how it enhances our bodywork sessions. Below are answers to some of the most commonly asked questions. If you have more questions, feel free to contact us, and we’ll be happy to assist!
1. What is Thermal Infra?
Thermal Infra is an advanced technology that uses infrared thermometers to measure heat variations in the body. This device detects temperature imbalances, helping our trained T.I.M. certified manual therapists identify areas of inflammation, distress, and structural imbalances in real time. It allows for a more targeted, efficient, and data-driven approach to bodywork therapy.
2. How does Thermal Infra work?
The Thermal Infra device scans specific regions of the body using an infrared thermometer. It detects heat fluctuations in areas like the ligaments, tendons, muscles, and fascia. These temperature spikes indicate potential inflammation or areas of distress. This information is then used by our certified therapists to tailor a treatment plan focused on those specific problem areas, ensuring a faster, smarter, and more effective session.
3. What are the benefits of Thermal Infra?
Thermal Infra offers numerous benefits, including:
Improved Recovery: By targeting areas of inflammation, Thermal Infra accelerates the healing process.
Pain Relief: It helps identify and address the root causes of chronic or acute pain.
Enhanced Performance: Helps optimize movement, flexibility, and muscle function, aiding in performance and overall wellness.
Non-Invasive Treatment: Unlike some traditional methods, Thermal Infra is completely non-invasive and comfortable.
Precision: It allows for more accurate and informed bodywork, providing consistent, measurable results.
4. Is Thermal Infra technology safe?
Yes, Thermal Infra is a safe, non-invasive diagnostic tool. The infrared thermometers used in the technology only measure temperature and do not emit harmful radiation. Our certified therapists are fully trained to use the technology safely and effectively, ensuring that each session is both beneficial and comfortable.
5. Will Thermal Infra replace my therapist?
No, Thermal Infra does not replace your therapist. It is an advanced tool that enhances the capabilities of our manual therapists by providing objective, data-driven insights. While it allows for more precise and efficient treatment, our therapists remain an essential part of your healing journey. They will use the data from Thermal Infra to create a personalized, hands-on treatment plan based on your unique needs.
6. How is Thermal Infra different from traditional bodywork?
Traditional bodywork typically relies on subjective assessments—what the therapist feels or observes through touch. Thermal Infra adds an objective layer to this process by providing real-time data on the body’s temperature fluctuations. This helps our therapists identify distress zones more accurately and tailor treatments accordingly, offering faster and more effective results.
7. Is there any discomfort during a Thermal Infra session?
No, Thermal Infra is a completely non-invasive procedure, and the scanning process is painless. During the session, the infrared thermometer is gently moved along the body to measure temperature levels. You may feel some light pressure during the manual therapy portion, but there is no discomfort associated with the use of Thermal Infra itself.
8. How long does a Thermal Infra session take?
A Thermal Infra session typically lasts between 45 to 60 minutes, depending on your specific needs and the areas being treated. The time is split between thermal scanning, assessment, and bodywork therapy, ensuring a comprehensive approach to your treatment.
9. Who can benefit from Thermal Infra?
Thermal Infra is ideal for anyone seeking:
Injury Recovery: Whether recovering from an injury or surgery, Thermal Infra accelerates healing and restores mobility.
Chronic Pain Management: By pinpointing the source of pain and inflammation, Thermal Infra helps manage and reduce discomfort.
Sports Performance: Athletes can improve their flexibility, strength, and overall performance through targeted treatments.
Overall Wellness: Even without specific issues, Thermal Infra can help enhance your general health, mobility, and well-being.
10. Do I need to prepare for a Thermal Infra session?
No special preparation is needed for a Thermal Infra session. However, it’s helpful if you arrive dressed in comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the areas that will be treated. If you're undergoing treatment for a specific injury or area of concern, please inform your therapist beforehand so they can tailor the session accordingly.
11. How often should I have a Thermal Infra session?
The frequency of Thermal Infra sessions depends on your individual goals and condition. For those recovering from an injury or managing pain, we may recommend more frequent sessions initially. For general wellness or performance optimization, a less frequent schedule may suffice. Your therapist will work with you to develop a treatment plan that fits your needs.
12. Is Thermal Infra covered by insurance?
Currently, coverage for Thermal Infra sessions depends on your insurance provider and policy. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to inquire about coverage for advanced bodywork treatments or infrared therapy. Our team is happy to provide any necessary documentation to assist in the process.
