About the scans
About the Nervous System Scans
HEART RATE VARIABILITY (hrv)
This scan measures the subtle variation between heartbeats, offering insight into how balanced and adaptable your nervous system is. This scan helps identify patterns of chronic stress and shows how your body is shifting between rest and fight-or-flight, including changes related to sleep, energy, mood, and emotional regulation. Because HRV reflects real-time nervous system adaptability, improvements often mirror meaningful changes in how people feel and function in daily life.
Thermal scan
This scan rolls up the spine, and measures the temperature on both sides. The autonomic nervous system controls our body's temperature, so when a difference in temperature is detected by the scan, it indicates stress on your autonomic nerves (subluxation). The test helps us determine the severity of that stress and which areas of the body may be affected because of it.
surface EMG
Surface Electromyography (EMG) measures the miniscule amounts of electrical energy in the muscles surrounding your spine. When your experiencing nervous system stress (subluxation), it can result in too much or too little electrical activity in those muscles. As we work to combat that stress, this highly-accurate scan allows us to document your progress.
