Insight Scanning Technology in Scottsdale

Advanced Technology to Access the Impact of Stress

What is the Insight Technology?

insight scan A computerized, non-invasive & painless test consisting of thermal, surface electromyology (SEMG), and heart rate variability (HRV).

Why should I get a scan of my nervous system?

The benefits of these scans are to detect and pinpoint abnormal function which cannot be seen on X-ray and are generally not felt in the form of pain until the damage is severe; Much like a heart attack. The scans will show if there is any Subluxation (stress) on your nervous system and how it is affecting your organs, glands, muscles & energy level (FUNCTION of your body/nervous system).

How will this test benefit me?

These computerized scans will let you know if chiropractic care can help you.

Does the Insight Technology test hurt?

Absolutely not. These tests do not utilize any needles, electric shock, or heat whatsoever. The practice member just feels someone touching their spine. Even infants and pregnant Moms-To-Be can be scanned. The scanning technology DOES NOT emit any radiation or dangerous signals.

Thermal Scan:

The scanner will measure the temperature on each side of your spine. Your skin temperature is controlled by the autonomic nervous system which is that part of the nervous system that you don’t have to think about. Such as heart rate, breathing, all organ function, and much more. Studies at Johns Hopkins University show that the body temperature on the left and right sides of your spine should be the same. A difference of body temperature on the right or left sides of your spine indicates stress on your autonomic nerves (Subluxation). The test enables us to determine what organs may be affected and the severity of the stress.

Heart Rate Variability (HRV):

Lifestyle stress and subluxations affect the balance of the Autonomic Nervous System and impact a practice member’s ability to adapt. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) testing is today’s gold standard to analyze the overall effects of stress and anxiety in practice members of any age. Research has concluded that lower and unbalanced HRV readings can be improved dramatically with chiropractic care.

Surface Electromyograph (SEMG):

SEMG will measure how your motor nerves are working. This is the part of the nervous system controlling muscles & movement. The more your muscles contract…the more electrical activity. We are able to measure the amount of muscle spasms or weakness which may indicate stress to your nervous system caused by Subluxation.

Muscle Balance (Symmetry):

Disturbances in nervous system function will cause an abnormal amount of flow to the muscles on either side of the spine. As a result of this disturbance, the muscles can become weaker, tighter, or fatigued. This is measured through the SEMG.

Chiropractic Care is Now Rocket Science!

Our doctors have joined a growing number of high tech chiropractic doctors that have upgraded their level of care to better assess the health and well being of their community. People can now be examined by the InsightTM Technology, a non-invasive technology which is a neuro-spinal screening and evaluation system originally designed to measure changes in the spinal muscles of astronauts caused by space flight. It is painless, economical, and only takes minutes.

Our doctors use the InsightTM technology to help measure subluxations, which is a nerve interference along the spine. This nerve interference disturbs the muscles regular nerve function, causing an abnormal amount of electrical flow to the muscles and create other health problems. The InsightTM technology measures the electrical flow and charts it, using graphics that show the spine. This helps specify precisely when chiropractors should adjust their practice members, allowing for increased accuracy in diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Should I Expect During an INSiGHT Scan?”]
When you arrive, you’ll change into a gown so we can access your back. A rolling scanner glides along your spine to assess nerve function. Surface EMG uses two pads beside your spine to detect muscle tension. Heart rate variability is measured by resting your hand in a reader for three minutes. The process is simple and comfortable.[/toggle]How Long Does the Scan Take?

The complete INSiGHT scan takes about 15 minutes from start to finish. We focus on keeping your visit efficient so you get answers without a long wait. For families, we do our best to schedule everyone together for convenience.

Do I Need to Prepare or Avoid Anything Before My Scan?

For accurate results, avoid caffeine and strenuous exercise for three hours before your appointment, as they can affect your nervous system. Continue taking prescribed medications unless we advise otherwise. No special clothing is necessary—just wear something comfortable.

How Often Should I Get Rescanned to Track Progress?

If you’re in a restorative care plan, rescans are typically performed every 30 days. For proactive or wellness care, we recommend rescans every three to six months. This timing lets us clearly monitor changes in your nervous system and adjust your care plan as needed.

What Happens After My Scan Results Are Reviewed?

After Dr. Tuzzolino reviews your scans, you’ll come in for a Report of Findings visit where Dr. Tuzzolino will let you know if he can help, he will show you where your problem is and further discuss what can be done to help with your current issue.
