Founder and Preventive Health Educator

Tirza L. Derflinger, MBA, CTT, Founder, Educator

Tirza has previously served as a Medical Laboratory Technician in the Army, obtained a B.S. in Industrial Engineering, and an M.B.A. in the Management of Technology. After working professionally for over 15 years, she had become dissatisfied… corporate work had become too impersonal and was no longer soulfully gratifying. At age 38, she left a six-figure income to return to her true calling of helping people in a health field and founded The Thermogram Center, Inc. in Colorado in 2002.

In 2005, she responded to the overwhelming question from clients, “what can I do about the inflammation observed in my thermal imaging?” by founding the Breast Health Education Group, made up of the original seven authors of “Better Breast Health – for Life!™”. Currently in its third edition, the prevention book continues to empower men and women to address the many risk factors that contribute to the development of any cancer and is available for free in its downloadable PDF version at Better Breast Health – for Life!

Tirza continues to serve as President for The Thermogram Center, Inc, lead author of the book, “Better Breast Health – for Life!”™ and passionate supporter of affiliates across the country engaging in Preventive Thermography. Knowledge is power! Claim yours today for a healthier tomorrow.
