October - Breast Awareness Month

Breast Health Awareness:
October is breast cancer awareness month. 

Women need to focus  every month as breast awareness month.  Self exams are important.  You have to be aware of what your body feels like today to know if there is a change tomorrow.

There is another option for evaluating breast health, thermogram.  A thermogram uses an infrared image of the body to see its physiology.  Thermography is a 100% Safe Imaging Test, Painless, No Radiation and Non-Invasive

Thermography was approved by the FDA for breast screening in 1982.  It can detect changes in the breast tissue, such as inflammation and an increase blood supply, years before a mammogram could. 
​
To improve breast health several self care treatments could be suggest by the doctor.  One self care treatment is massage.  Manual Lymph Drainage, (MLD) to the breast tissue and with light cupping has benefitted the breast in helping to break up lymph congestion, showing an improvement in breast tissue.
