A Russian team of doctors and scientists, based at Sochi University and lead by Dr. Alexander Karasev and Dr. Alexander Revenko, in the late 70's developed a method of treatment that was energy efficient, multi-applicable, portable and also non-invasive. They were the first people to achieve repeatable therapeutic treatment using electrical signals to stimulate the immune system. Head scientist Professor Revenko claimed that there were very few illnesses Scenar could not treat and often cure. Tests conducted in Russia have since shown the Scenar has proven itself to be effective in 80% of cases. The Scenar was immediately dubbed - the Star Trek device - by the Press because of its origins and its similarity to the all-curing medical scanner used in Star Trek .

How it works

The Scenar uses bio-feedback by stimulating the nervous system, it is able to teach the body to heal itself. The device sends out a series of signals through the skin and measures the response. Each signal is only sent out when a change, in response to the previous signal, is recorded in the electrical properties of the skin. Visible responses include reddening of the skin, numbness, stickiness (the device will have the feeling of being magnetically dragged), a change in the numerical readout and an increase in the electronic clattering of the device.

The C-fibres, which comprise 85% of all nerves in the body, react most readily to the electro-stimulation and are responsible for the production of neuropeptides and other regulatory peptides. The body can get accustomed to a stable pathological state, which may have been caused by injury, disease or toxicity. The Scenar catalyses the process to produce regulatory peptides by stimulation of C-fibres for the body to use where necessary. It is these neuropeptides that in turn re-establish the body’s natural physiological state and are responsible for the healing process. As these peptides last up to several hours, the healing process will continue long after the treatment is over. The large quantity of neuropeptides and C-fibres in the Central Nervous System can also result in the treatment on one area aiding another’s chemical imbalances, correcting sleeplessness, appetite and behavioral problems.

In Russia there are well over 500,000 cases of the device’s use and some 11,000 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 device is used on most types of disease or injury: circulatory, sensory, respiratory, neurological, genital-urinary, musculoskeletal, gastro-intestinal, endocrine, immune and psychological disorders.

The Scenar is also credited with vastly reducing recovery times. Russian athletes have been known not only to compete after serious injuries, but even to break world records. In accident and emergency wards, its ability to aid recovery is used to help victims of cardiac arrest, massive trauma and coma. It has recently been discovered to also aid in improving learning ability, memory, sexual function and improved physical health. 

Scenar value in pain relief

Both cancer and fracture patients have found more pain relief from the release of natural opoids after Scenar treatment than from
administered opiates. 

Treatment 

The Scenar weighs approx. 300 grams, is 200 mm in length and runs from a 9 volt battery. This hand held instrument is run over the spine and abdomen or the infected area, recording the resistance response to its signals and using its sophisticated software to return a fresh signal. A gentle tingling / stroking sensation will be felt. The doctor / practitioner will be looking for anomalies on the skin surface, which may be highlighted by redness, numbness, stickiness, or a change in numerical display or sound. Although these areas may not seem to directly relate to the obvious symptom, by treating these asymmetries (as the Russians call them), the healing process will begin!

Patients having Scenar treatment need to take responsibility for their health and are advised to participate actively in their treatment and recovery process. The chemical compounds released by this form of stimulation of the nerves, affect not only problem areas, but also circulate in the blood treating other areas of the body. This goes some way to explaining how old and often forgotten problems are brought to the surface for treatment. The Russians state that a chronic problem may take up to 6 weeks treatment, with long lasting effectiveness. Acute problems may take as few as one or two treatments. They say that the Scenario has proved effective in 80% of all cases, of which full recovery occurs in two-thirds and significant healing in the others.

What conditions can Scenar treat

In the UK the devices are licensed by the British Standards Institution CE mark for pain relief and pain management . However, by the nature of the device, viz stimulating the nervous system, the Russian experience and that of many more doctors worldwide is that the Scenar affects the whole body system with safety. The Russian experience suggests that it can be effective for a broad range of diseases and conditions, which include treating ENT, eyes, skin, dental issues, burns, fractures, bites, allergies, blood, diseases of the immune system, endocrine, nutritional and metabolic disorders, stress and depression, etc.

How often will I need treatment

In order to create a continuous flow of circulating, regulative peptides, Scenar action must be given quite often. For any fresh injury or acute inflammatory process, treatment needs to be intensive, ideally once or twice a day. For chronic conditions, treatments need to be given three / four times a week initially. As things improve, frequency can be reduced. A course of treatment will vary from individual to individual, taking into account such factors as the stage of the pathological process, the person’s age, state of health, and so on.

Scenar impulses are similar to endogenous nerve impulses, therefore non-damaging and safe. People with cardiac pacemakers should not risk treatment.  Scenar should not be used during pregnancy. 

What about my conventional treatment

It makes sense always to inform your doctor about Scenar treatment.  Scenar treatment may enable you to reduce or even stop taking some medication but only 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 (complete lack of energy and feeling of malaise). This arises when the body is getting rid of toxic energy too rapidly. There are Scenar techniques to manage this situation.  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 the body to ensure good contact between the skin / head and the nervous system. Patients generally experience an increase in energy, good sleep and better well-being.

How does Scenar therapy differ from other therapies

There are several ways in which it differs from other electrical therapies. Unlike TENS machines (for example) each impulse is different from the previous one, so the body is unable to adapt to the signal (often habituation leads to health problems). The Scenar signal is high amplitude so it stimulates C-fibres, which make up about 85% of the body’s nervous system. This explains the quick effectiveness of Scenar therapy on the whole body. Scenar therapists are now to be found worldwide and the Internet is enabling them to share their knowledge base regardless of race or culture.
