A new frontier in functional reading of the human body.
Biospectral Medicine is a discipline created by Felipe Reitz to interpret human emissive signals and transform invisible patterns of regulation, adaptation, pain, circulation and organic function into a scientific, structured and reproducible language.
Conventional medicine visualizes anatomical structures, laboratory changes and established processes with great precision. Yet many functional manifestations emerge before they are fully expressed in structural exams. Biospectral Medicine appears as a complementary approach to observe circulatory, neuroautonomic, metabolic, adaptive and regulatory responses in movement, expanding the reading of the body as a dynamic system.
Thermal, biospectral and autonomic patterns express regulation, adaptation, circulation and functional response.
Computerized Biospectral Imaging organizes emissive signals into functional and comparable visual maps.
The Reitz method correlates intensities, morphologies, trajectories, symmetries and emission zones.
The reading supports medical consultation, investigative hypotheses, research, education and personalized care.
The body is read as a functional field expressing regulation, overload, adaptation and response.
CBI expands visual reading of thermal and emissive patterns across body regions.
A proprietary structure to correlate signals, intensities, symmetry, morphology and context.
An organized language for describing functional patterns without reducing the reading to isolated diagnosis.
Regional mapping for systematic, comparable and technical observation.
Potential for complementary care, education, research, software and health innovation.
Original examples from Biospectral Medicine assessments demonstrating hyperemissive areas, functional patterns and relevant signals for clinical, educational and investigative correlation.
Biospectral Medicine is a functional and physiological assessment created by Felipe Reitz to observe human emissive signals, especially thermal and biospectral patterns, and transform them into an organized reading of circulation, regulation, adaptation, pain and functional dynamics. For the patient, its value lies in expanding body understanding through a visual, integrated and complementary approach.
The assessment combines anamnesis, clinical observation, appropriate skin preparation and image capture through CBI - Computerized Biospectral Imaging. The observed patterns are then interpreted through a proprietary methodology considering body regions, asymmetries, hyperemissive areas, trajectories, clinical context and the 9 observation aspects of the method.
The assessment is based on observation of images and external body signals, with no blood collection, no ionizing radiation and no invasive procedure. The patient remains in a controlled environment and follows preparation guidelines so the skin and microcirculation are as free as possible from external interferences.
The assessment may demonstrate patterns related to circulation, inflammatory response, thermal asymmetries, regional overload, autonomic regulation, functional adaptation, pain and superficial metabolic dynamics. These signals are interpreted as complementary functional information, always correlated with history, symptoms and individual context.
Biospectral Medicine adds a visual and functional layer to clinical reasoning, helping organize hypotheses, follow evolution, guide correlations with symptoms and enrich the conversation between patient and professional. It integrates as a complementary resource within medical consultation, diagnosis, individualized treatment and conventional examinations.
The time may vary according to the purpose of the assessment and the regions analyzed, but the process generally includes preparation, acclimatization, image capture and technical interpretation. The result may be presented as guidance, report or discussion of functional findings, always with careful language and within the professional limits of the assessment.
To improve image quality, avoid thermal and chemical interferences before the assessment: do not use creams, oils, perfumes, deodorants or body makeup on the day; avoid intense exercise and hot or cold showers for at least 4 hours; avoid coffee, tea, smoking, energy drinks and very hot or cold drinks for at least 2 hours; wear light and loose clothing; arrive at least 10 minutes early for acclimatization; and inform the team about medications, recent procedures, fever, sun exposure, trauma, massage or compression exams.

It may be better to reschedule when there has been recent fever, acute infection, significant inflammation, sunburn, intense skin irritation, invasive procedure, biopsy, trauma, cosmetic procedure or important physical stimulus in the region to be assessed. These situations may temporarily alter thermal response and reduce interpretive quality.
Patients who wish to better understand functional patterns of the body, follow regions of pain, circulation, adaptation, overload or asymmetry may benefit from the reading, especially when seeking a complementary, visual and integrative perspective to discuss with health professionals and organize care more clearly.
