SCENAR Therapy

AMAZING PAIN RELIEF with SCENAR Therapy

What is SCENAR?

SCENAR THERAPY is unique because it interactively locates, measures and prompts problem areas in the body through the skin to HELP RELIEVE PAIN AND RESTORE FUNCTION for maximum therapeutic effectiveness. SCENAR is a hand held, advanced bio energy, TGA approved medical device.

How does it work and how can it help you?

An amazing clinically proven breakthrough in pain relief.

SCENAR is highly effective for chronic and acute pain in bones, muscles, joints, ligaments, back pain, diabetic neuropathy, headaches and other painful conditions – see here

SCENAR therapy stimulates the body to use its own internal healing mechanisms to cure a state of ‘dis-ease’. When the SCENAR passes over a ‘painful’ area it sends out a signal to the brain telling it that there is an imbalance, experienced as ‘stickiness’ on the skin.

The brain constantly monitors the condition of the body so will already know that this imbalance has occurred. As a normal process it would send bio-active compounds to ease the pain and begin the healing process.

SCENAR technology was developed to “jump-start” the body’s own natural healing response, telling the brain that more of the bodies’ natural medicinal compounds are required to neutralise the pain and heal the injury.

Using electro-stimulation on the skin a very sophisticated electronic feedback loop is set up and the nervous system sends a measured dose of neuropeptides, some of the most powerful pain relief agents that the body produces, to the site of pain.

As the device is brushed over the painful area it continuously monitors the changes, sending messages back to the brain so that it is able to adjust the treatment accordingly.

Who can be treated?

SCENAR is totally safe, non-invasive, painless and comfortable, suitable for all ages, almost everyone’s body will respond. Babies, young children, elderly patients and even animals can benefit from SCENAR Therapy. 

In the 40+ years since it was first invented, there are no reports of negative side effects. The only major contra-indication is electrical implants such as cardiac pace makers.

SCENAR Treatment

At the start of the SCENAR therapy treatment, the device will be gently moved over your skin, and at times it will be held stationary to take readings, the device appears to drag over the point of pain feeling ‘sticky’. As healing begins the site may redden or change colour in relation to the surrounding skin and the device may emit a ‘buzzing’ sound as it passes over the point of pain. Once the area undergoes change, either by reduced stickiness, change of skin colour, or a fainter buzzing sound, the treatment is complete.

In minutes the body has delivered sufficient natural chemicals to give powerful pain relief and to speed up the healing process.

SCENAR therapy supports the body to heal itself, during the session we will search for unresolved problems to assist the body in completing its goal of self-regulation. Any shifts or changes are an indication that your body is already reacting to the therapy and the healing process have started. These changes may begin during the treatment session and can continue for a period of time afterwards.

What’s so special about SCENAR?

  • Remarkable levels of pain reduction and functional recovery.
  • Often able to break through where nothing else has.
  • Non-invasive, non-toxic, free of side effects.
  • Long-lasting or permanent results.

Many clients have told us that as a result of SCENAR Therapy, other chronic conditions have improved, for example; depression, anxiety, allergies, fatigue, hormonal disorders and digestive disorders.

Why is SCENAR so effective?

SCENAR is completely non-invasive – the device only makes contact with the skin – and works primarily by using electrical impulses to stimulate C-fibre nerves, which represent 85% of all nerves in the body and are responsible for signals that trigger the production of neuropeptides and other biochemicals that are the foundation of the healing process.

The device is placed directly on the skin, usually at the location where pain or discomfort is being experienced. The SCENAR then sends a gentle electrical pulse and collects the electromagnetic “response” from the patient’s body which it then uses to modify the next SCENAR impulse.

This biofeedback feature, unique to SCENAR – the constantly changing dialog between the patient’s body and the device – is also what distinguishes SCENAR from TENS machines and other electrical therapies.
The results of SCENAR treatments are usually rapid, and are often described by patients as AMAZING.

As C-fibre nerves are stimulated the brain produces and releases more neuropeptides, enabling accelerated healing and often relieving pain immediately. SCENAR therapy also has benefits that continue after treatment: as neuropeptides last a number of hours within our bloodstream and soft tissues, the healing process will continue long after the SCENAR treatment is over.

SCENAR History

Originally developed by an elite team of Soviet doctors and scientists to treat cosmonauts during space travel, SCENAR therapy is now available throughout the world, and has become the pain and stress reduction treatment-of-choice by an increasing number of medical professionals and athletes.

The medical origin of SCENAR was the ancient Chinese understanding of the paths of Chi energy flow through the human body, acupuncture and zonal massage. As with these long-proven holistic medical practices, the underlying concept is that healing mechanisms lie within the human nervous and immune systems. SCENAR is designed to stimulate them to accelerate healing.

Why SCENAR? Because it works!

SCENAR often rivals the strongest pain killers. This includes TENS machines which just block pain until the body adapts and the pain returns. The way that SCENAR works generally leads to remarkably lasting relief. With chronic conditions, if the original cause is still in place, there may be occasional flare-ups but these are usually brief and usually dealt with in just one or two treatments.

SCENAR is non-manipulative, non-invasive, non-toxic, non-addictive, and can be used with people of any age. SCENAR feels tingling or prickly, but (generally) soothing.

Instead of blocking or manipulating the body in a forceful, one-way process, SCENAR’S signals are being constantly modified by the body’s responses. Coached to repair itself using its own resources, the body will generally choose to do so quickly and deeply.

In principle the SCENAR device works as a catalyst on the body’s immune system. The SCENAR reads the resistance level of the skin and relays this information to the brain via the skin itself. This accelerates the body’s healing own mechanism through stimulation of the neuropeptides in each damaged cell. In addition, the SCENAR could be used to treat individuals whose bodies do not repair themselves properly as a result of chronic illness. A classic example of this is sufferers of fibromyalgia where SCENAR may act as a regeneration and pain management tool.

Is SCENAR Safe?

Yes, it is very safe; the only contradictions are pacemakers. SCENAR is very well researched and after large clinical trials and over 40 years of use in Russia, and over 15 years here in Australia and worldwide, there are no reports of negative side effects. SCENAR uses the most natural and gentle of healing processes; those in your own body.

Instead of blocking or manipulating the body in a forceful, one-way process, SCENAR’s signals are being constantly modified by the body’s responses. Repairing itself using its own resources, the body will generally choose to do so quickly and deeply.

The SCENAR device emits electrical impulses at the same frequency as your own body. This means that the signals are in harmony with your body and cannot cause harm, in fact it does the exact opposite in ‘waking up’ your own body to heal itself.

SCENAR FAQ's

Is SCENAR painful?

SCENAR is a non-invasive treatment, the practitioner will apply the hand held RITM SCENAR device on to your skin until you feel a slight tingling sensation. The tingling sensation will be set at a level that you are comfortable with and it is not painful.

Will SCENAR be suitable for my condition?

During your initial consultation I will discuss with you your medical history, symptoms and pain levels, to determine and advise if the treatment will be effective for you and your specific condition. 
SCENAR therapy has many benefits and conditions that are suitable to treat.

How many treatments will I need a treatment to get rid of my pain?

The number of treatments that you will need will depend on how old your injury is, how much damage needs to be repaired, your general health, quality of diet, your age and lifestyle and whether you give your body rest to allow it to heal.  Some people feel instant pain relief and a sense of well-being straight away, whilst others may need longer for their body to initiate its recovery.

From experience, using SCENAR Therapy, acute pain can be resolved in 3-5 treatments, and chronic pain conditions may take longer. A treatment plan will be discussed after your first treatment.

The nature of the issue, the level of pain and the degree of urgency will all have an effect on the frequency of SCENAR treatments. With very acute conditions and recent injuries it may be advisable to have treatment two or three times a week, sometimes even daily. In these situations, there is a window of opportunity for extremely rapid progress, and preventing the condition from becoming chronic. Your own need to restore mobility as quickly as possible may also be a consideration.

However, the normal pattern is once or twice a week at first, then weekly until the treatments have clearly broken through and the symptoms are starting to go away.

Leaving gaps of a week or two reduces momentum and can lead to some regression, interrupting and slowing down your overall progress. Some conditions, such as simple back pain or a mild injury, may resolve in one or two sessions. Others will take several weeks or months, and some ongoing chronic conditions may require long-term ongoing treatment.

Some clients also return for monthly or quarterly “top-ups”, even after the main treatment phase has finished. These reminders help the body to stay on track with the original issue but also act as a general tonic, promoting overall health and alignment.

Are there any side effects or contraindications?

There are no known side effects. However, although this is a very safe treatment, it is recommended that the following patients do not have this treatment;

  • Patients with cardiac pacemakers
  • Alcoholic intoxicated individuals
  • Patients with acute infection diseases

It is important to note that RITM SCENAR is not contraindicated and is safe for use for persons who have metallic implants such as pins, plates and screws nor is it contraindicated for person who have had joint replacements.

Is it OK to combine SCENAR with other therapies?

Most of the well-known complementary therapies like Acupuncture, Bowen, Chiropractic, Cranio-sacral, Myofascial, Osteopathy and Reflexology share the same basic goals as SCENAR. It’s tempting to throw more than one therapy at the problem but this often doesn’t speed up the results.

Each therapy and therapist approaches treatment in a different way, and combining very different approaches in the same treatment period may give the body scrambled instructions, and leave you uncertain of what is working (and not working).

To get the best results and value for money, it’s generally best to try one at a time. However, some therapies do complement each other and can be combined but it’s best to discuss this in your consultation.

What about my conventional medical treatment?

If you’re under their care already with a GP, it’s best to tell your doctor that you are also receiving SCENAR treatment. It is unlikely that they will have heard of it, but you can tell them that this is a new form of electro stimulation pain relief, a major step beyond how TENS machines work, and an excellent companion to mainstream medicine.

You should also tell them that as the SCENAR treatments progress, the body may become more responsive to medications, making them more potent. You especially need to mention this once you see a change in symptoms: as a medical professional, your doctor should be the one to decide whether this justifies adjusting the dosage of any medication you might be taking.

There are no guarantees as to how many treatments you will require. Everyone is different. Some people respond very well with one or two treatments some conditions/clients require more. Please discuss with your qualified therapist in your consultation
