Tammy Leiner

Tammy received her certification in Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging (DITI) and completed advanced clinical training at Duke University Hospital under the tutelage of Dr. Peter Leando, President of the ACCT in 2004.

She became interested in the technology as a non-invasive approach to earlier detection and prevention of diseases and provides a window of opportunity for early intervention. DITI is a powerful diagnostic component of the acupuncturists' assessment process. All patients can benefit by getting a thermal scan prior to treatment to detect the areas that need to be addressed for diagnosis and treatment. Inflammatory patterns, degeneration and obstructions are made visible and objectively quantified. Progress can demonstrated along a course of treatments through comparative scanning. Pre and post treatment thermal scans demonstrate objective results for both the patient and provider to review. Tammy is a passionate advocate of breast thermography- specifically, for women who want earlier detection and prevention, less invasiveness from compression and/or harmful radiation. Women of all ages can benefit from annual breast thermal scans.
