SCENAR: FAQ

What is the basic idea of SCENAR technology?

SCENAR technology is based on the concept that the human body is the most complex bioenergetics' self-correcting system. This system has an innate and inexhaustible ability to maintain energetic balance between organs and systems of the body. When the body goes out of balance - for any number of reasons - we often experience a certain ailment. Sometimes just a minor pulse is needed to make the body employ its internal energy to correct the imbalance and restore harmony and balance. SCENAR technology generates such an impulse.

What is the principle of operation of SCENAR devices?

The SCENAR devices are non-invasive regulators of body functions. They create ideal conditions for the body to heal itself, using its own internal pharmacy of neuropeptides.

What is the method of treatment that characterizes SCENAR-technology as a "unique" one?

Each signal from the device helps regulate the body's functions and is controlled by the body through the biofeedback loop. No two consecutive signals from the device are ever the same. This allows treatment to be truly dynamic, adjusting for the state of the body from moment to moment and as the person's condition changes and improves.

What are the essential differences between the SCENAR devices?

SCENAR devices differ in design and components; These devices can be analog or digital; May or may not have an LCD display window to read out operational settings, and a jack to connect detachable (remote) probes. However, they all use the same principle of action, which is a biofeedback.

What benefit can one get from applying Add-on electrodes?

Detachable electrodes considerably enhance capabilities of the device, improve its therapeutic effect, and make the user's work easier in areas of difficult access.

How can devices display diagnostic information?

Different models perform diagnostics in different ways: some have only sound indication, others - only light indication, and some models have both. More advanced models feature digital or graphic LCD readout of operational, diagnostic and therapeutic modes as well as automatic dosage indication.

Are devices suitable for treatment of animals (veterinary medicine)?

The devices are well used in veterinary medicine. To treat the hairy skin areas, two forms of treatment may be used:

• Treat with the main probe. In which case hair should be removed.
• Treat with the attachable specific-for-hair probe.

What conditions can Scenar treat?

In the UK, the devices are licensed by the British Standards Institute for pain relief only. However, because of the nature of the device, viz., stimulating the nervous system, the Russian experience is that Scenar affects all the body systems.

The Russian experience suggests that it can be effective for a very broad range of diseases, including diseases of the digestive, cardio-vascular, respiratory, musculo-skeletal, urinary, reproductive and nervous systems.

It is also useful for managing ENT diseases, eye diseases, skin conditions and dental problems. It has also been found beneficial in burns, fractures, insect bites, allergic reactions, diseases of the blood and disorders involving immune mechanisms; endocrine, nutritional and metabolic disorders; stress and mental depression, etc.

It is known to give real relief from many types of pain.

How often will I need a treatment?

In order to create a continuous flow of circulating regulative peptides Scenar action must be given quite often. For any fresh injury or any acute inflammatory process treatment needs to be intensive, ideally once or even twice daily. For chronic conditions, treatments are ideally given three or four times a week initially. As things improve the frequency can be reduced.

A course of treatments will vary from individual to individual, and takes into account such factors as the stage of the pathological process, the person's age, state of health, and so on.

Is it safe?

As the Scenar impulse is similar to endogenous nerve impulses, it is non-damaging and safe. Only people with cardiac pacemakers are not allowed to have Scenar treatment.

Children and pregnant women can be treated, and even animals enjoy it!

What about my conventional treatment?

If you are receiving treatment from your doctor it makes sense to inform him about Scenar therapy. Treatment with Scenar may enable you to reduce or even stop taking some medication, and this can be done under the supervision of your doctor.

What else do I need to know?

During the treatment of chronic conditions, occasionally a healing crisis may occur (experienced as a complete lack of energy and malaise). This arises if the body is getting rid of toxic energy too rapidly. There are techniques that can be used with the Scenar to manage this.

For best results it is advisable not to bathe or shower for two hours before and after treatment. It may be necessary to shave an area of skin to ensure good communication between the device and the nervous system.

Patients generally experience an increase in energy, more refreshing sleep and an improved sense of wellbeing.

ow does it differ from other therapies?

There are several ways in which it differs from other electrical therapies.

Unlike TENS machines, each impulse is different from the previous one so the body is unable to adapt to the signal.

The Scenar impulse is high amplitude so it stimulates C-fibres, which make up about 85% of the nerves in the body. This explains the quick effectiveness of Scenar therapy on the whole body.
