SCENAR THERAPY

SCENAR is an acronym for Self Controlled Energo Neuro Adaptive Regulator. It is a reflex biofeedback device involving no drugs and no surgery, only light touch to the body with an electrical energy corresponding to the body's own signals. The SCENAR is a hand held bio-controlled electro-impulse therapy ideal for pain control in various functional and pathologic processes and helps to correct them by stimulating the body's own healing reserves. It is entirely non-invasive. Tests in Russia have since shown the device to be effective in managing pain in 80% of cases.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE SCENAR

A team of Russian doctors and scientists led by Alexander Karasev and Professor Revenko at Sochi University developed the device in the 1970's. Lying midway between East and West, it is a product of the space race. Both Eastern and Western physicists were encouraged to develop energy medicine at a time when massive funding was poured into research for the American and Russian space programmes.

It was dubbed "the Star Trek Device" by the European Press, after the all-curing energetic medical device used on that popular science fiction series.

In 1986 the SCENAR was permitted by the USSR Medical Council for release to the general public and hospitals. In Russia, there are over 50,000 case reports of the device’s use and some 600 practitioners currently use the device as their principal treatment instrument. A vast wealth of information is available from research papers, clinical reports and training manuals. The Russian Committee for New Medical Technology and the department for "Non-drug Methods of Treatment" have released seven publications on SCENAR Therapy. Eight international conferences as well as 20 inter-regional seminars that have been held to date.

SCENAR is approved in England for pain relief, and in May 2002 it received approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use as a biofeedback device in the United States.

WHO BENEFITS FROM THE SCENAR?

The SCENAR has been used to assist in pain management and relief in all types of disorders- circulatory, respiratory, neurological, genitourinary, endocrine, musculoskeletal, immune, gastrointestinal and even psychological discomfort. The SCENAR device is particularly effective for various types of organic and referred pain, musculoskeletal pain, and, as evidenced by its use for the Russian Olympians, for acute conditions such as fractures and sprains.

EFFECTIVENESS OF SCENAR THERAPY

It is important to note that the SCENAR does not treat a particular disease or condition. However, results reported for the SCENAR have been remarkable. There seems to be very few ailment categories that it cannot assist. Improvements in particular conditions are simply the result of applying procedures developed over two decades of the device's use to effect a change in skin/body response to the SCENAR signal/impulse.

Dr Keith Scott-Mumby, writing in "Virtual Medicine" (London: Thorsons 1999), reports the cumulative effectiveness for a variety of disease categories, as follows:

Circulatory 82%

Respiratory 84%

Gastrointestinal 93%

Genito-urinary 89%

Gynecological & Obstetrical 78%

Musculoskeletal 79%

Ear and Mastoid 82%

Eye and Andexae 93%

Mouth/jaw/salivary glands 91%

Russian experience suggests that it is effective in neurological disorders - 81%; skin disorders - 61%; neuroendocrine disorders - 81%; mental and behavioural disorders - 81%.

The device also assists in normalising metabolic processes thus increasing the adaptive ability of the body and greatly reducing recovery times from injury, infection or trauma. These effects can be traced and confirmed by additional methods of investigation: ECG, EEG, X-ray, CT, Ultrasound, irido-diagnostic, biochemical investigations, electro-information investigation, computer acupuncture diagnostics- Nakatani, Voll etc.

It has been suggested that SCENAR-therapy smoothes away the differences between physiotherapy (particularly electrotherapy) and acupuncture, where general mechanisms and actions are similar to each other.

EFFECTS OF SCENAR ON THE BODY

Based on the experience of Russian SCENAR therapists some reflex zones were identified as specific zones on the skin, corresponding to certain organs and systems in the body. Applying the SCENAR device to the particular zones appears to enhance the body's own natural healing mechanisms. This can be easily correlated to the Western concepts of 'dermatomes' and 'spinal nerves'.

The term adaptive reaction is used in SCENAR technology to represent the normal and healthy process where the organism responds to a change. We respond in a healthy state to stress by undertaking 're-creational activities'. The body may respond to an infection by increasing the internal temperature: a programmed adaptive response to a stressor or threat to its wellbeing.

By contrast, in conventional medicine, the adaptive reaction of the organism to a change in its external environment is called a "disease" and the approach is to "fight" with them in order to expel them from the organism. However, an adaptive reaction is not a disease. There seems to be little real sense in fighting these adaptive reactions: it appears to be more constructive to support the natural response of the organism. This is exactly what the SCENAR aims to do - its impulses aim to strengthen the integrity and natural balance of the organism as a whole by stimulating the nervous system to produce neuropeptides. Neuropeptides are chemicals produced by the nerves, that keep the body balanced and reestablishes the body's natural physiological state in which healing is achieved. Without these regulatory neuropeptides, the body adapts and becomes "stuck" in "disease states" and portions of the body are blocked from communicating with the energetic system that keeps it in balance. The SCENAR begins a dialogue with these blocked areas by providing a new stream of information. Once the lines of communication have been reestablished, the information-starved areas keep on "talking".

Furthermore, since these regulatory peptides last up to several hours, the healing process continues long after the treatment session. The net effect is to excite motor and sensory fibres, increase the speed of blood flow, activate local humoral mechanisms and promote the removal of waste products from cells.

Therefore, many other mechanisms of the body are acted upon by the impulse generated by the SCENAR device and these include:- neuro and other regulatory peptides (via cascade release); membranous resonance of the cell (each cell in the body vibrates in it's own way and there is overall resonance in the body); molecular polarisation (molecules reposition themselves within an electrical field); and microphoresis ( It should also be noted, there is a 'mini pharmacy' on the surface of the skin and the action of SCENAR stimulates selective reabsorption of trace elements and minerals - for this reason it is recommended not to bathe or shower for two hours before and after treatment).

Since the SCENAR assists in normalising metabolic processes and thus enhancing the adaptive ability of the body, other reported benefits include improving sleep disturbances, appetite, behavioural problems, learning ability, memory, sexual function and overall physical health. In Russian journals, the SCENAR is also credited with dramatically reducing recovery times. Russian athletes have been known not only to compete after serious injuries, but to then go on to break world-records. In accident and emergency wards, its ability to aid recovery is utilised in Russia to help victims of cardiac arrest, massive trauma and coma. Trials in Russia have proven the SCENAR's application for pain relief. Both cancer and fracture patients have been reported to have found more pain relief from the release of natural opioids after SCENAR treatment than from administered opiates. (In trials in this clinic, most people report clarity of thought, general well-being and ease after a SCENAR session).

Contraindications are cardiac pacemakers and other such electrical implants, individual intolerances, alcohol intoxication and obscure infectious diseases.
