Scenar - What the Papers
Say
" For one of the most
injury prone players in the sport (Dan Luger) ... (the Scenar) provides some insurance against further damage...
'I've used (Scenar) for problems with my neck and groin and there's no doubt it speeds up recovery.'
" England rugby international Dan Luger in The Daily Mail, October
2003
"I am
no medical man, so I cannot say for sure how much I owe to the machine (Scenar). But put it this way, the
day before I started using it, I did a 20-minute run on the treadmill and really struggled on level
eight. After three days of treatment, I did the same run on level 15 and didn't feel it at
all." England rugby international Mike Catt in the
Mirror.
" Scenar therapy is a breakthrough treatment that
really works. "

" Scars remain when the body has not completed its
healing process. A device called Scenar... is undergoing trials in this country, but in Russia, where it has
been much used, it has been shown to encourage healing. The machine is held close to the part of the body that
needs healing and emits electronic impulses that stimulate the brain to complete the healing process.
" The Guardian, February

" It looks like a TV remote control, but a new device is offering people in Sussex the chance to
try out an alternative treatment for their health problems. The inventors of the Self-Controlled Neuro Adaptive
Regulation (Scenar) originally created it to treat Russian astronauts in space. Scientists were asked to devise a
way of treating health problems during space flights because, with urine being recycled as drinking water, taking
drugs was out of the question. The machine is believed to be able to heal health complaints through electrical
current stimulation which encourages the body to heal itself. It is pressed on to the skin where the pain is, and
emits a low electrical current. This triggers the body's natural and potent healing powers by creating a link
between the brain and the part of the body that needs healing. The brain is kick-started into releasing
self-healing chemicals such as serotonin that speed up and enhance the rate of recovery of the illness or
injury. The Argus newspaper
(Sussex), November 30, 2002
" It's only a
little black box, but it may turn out to be a medical miracle. It looks like something out of Star Trek, and
indeed, the latest weapon in the war to keep us healthy was developed by Russian scientists to ensure that
cosmonauts stayed fighting fit as they floated in the stratosphere. A little black box of tricks that looks
exactly like a TV remote control: run it over the body, and the device's electrical currents are said to
stimulate the body to repair itself. It sounds too good to be true. Yet in Russia the Scenar (Self-controlled
Energo Neuro Adaptive Regulation) won its inventors the prestigious Order of Lenin - the equivalent of the Nobel
Prize... James Colthurst, a surgeon and qualified homeopath who was also the late Princess Diana's confidant and
allegedly the go-between for her and the author Andrew Morton, was among the first to use the invention in this
country. Its approval by the medical authorities here, however, is as a pain agent - and this is the only
official medical claim that is being made for it. " The Scotsman, January 26,

" Sorrel Warwick, a
56-year old BHSAI and accredited eventing trainer, admits to being impressed by the speed at which Scenar
therapy helped one of her charges to recover from a potentially serious leg problem. Top National Hunt
racehorse Avanti Express had pulled a superficial flexor tendon and the thoroughbred's owner agreed to Sorrel's
suggestion that Roger (Meacock, a vet using Scenar) be called in. He arrived, along with another vet,
on the day the injury was detected. Over a period of about three months, Roger treated Avanti Express twice a
week for the first two weeks, followed by once a week, then once a fortnight and finally once a month,"
esplains Sorrel, who runs Wiltshire-based Cholderton Equestrian Centre. "I expected the injury to have left a
thicker tendon, but now you really have to look hard to see any evidence of it. The horse came back to win two
races. I had used Scenar therapy with other horses and found the device helpful in speeding up recovery. I
thought that it would trigger Avanti Express's body into instigating its own healing process, which is what
seems to have happened." Sorrel, who also found the treatment beneficial in easing an arthritic wrist, says
that she is a great supporter of alternative therapies like Scenar, although she firmly believes in combining a
particular horse and problem with the right treatment. "Scenar therapy has a serious place when it comes to
sports horses," she adds. "Especially due to the need for non-invasive treatments in order to comply with
Jockey Club rules. "
Horse magazine, December 2003
" If you suffer from chronic pain, or often find
yourself reaching for analgesics, ENAR (a model of Scenar) may offer a better solution... a hand-held
electronic device that communicates with your body's nervous system to help promote healing as well as reduce
pain. This non-invasive, non-toxic and energy-efficient form of therapy has been used to treat a range of
health problems, including tendonitis, back pain, ulcers, burns, allergies and even musculoskeletal injuries.
" Better Homes and Gardens magazine,
May 2007
" You may never have thought it would
take a team of Russian scientists to relieve your aches and pains, but that's exactly the kind of know-how the ENAR
(a type of Scenar) therapy system is built on. The hand-held device combines Western electrical biofeedback with
Eastern energy medicine to treat a diverse range of disorders. Also very effective against stress and muscle
tension, (Scenar) is often described as 'acupuncture without the needles' and communicates with the body's nervous
system through an electrical pulse that clears and regulates neuro-energy pathways. " Virgin (Airways) Blue

" Eastern Medicine Meets
Western Technology. 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. Cures have been claimed from it for all types of
disorders - circulatory, respiratory, neurological, genito-urinary, musculoskeletal, gastrointestinal, endocrine,
immune, psychological...
Ironically,
the Scenar was never used in space, but its technology is helping to solve the health-care crisis in Russia, and
it could also help solve the health-care crisis in the West. The device works on diseases and dysfunctions of
every kind by acting systemically on the energy field of the body... Results reported.. have been remarkable.
There seem to be very few ailments that it cannot alleviate or cure. To date, over 50,000 cases have been
reported involving the device... A large body of information available from research papers, clinical reports
and training manuals indicates that, overall, the Scenar is effective in about 80% of cases (where
"effectiveness" is defined as a cure in two-thirds of cases and significant improvement in the
remainder)...
The scenar heals by using
neuropeptides, the internal pharmacy of chemicals by which the body is kept in physiological balance. Without
regulatory peptides being produced by the nerves, the body can adapt to disease states, which may be caused by
injury, injection or toxicity. The Scenar stimulates the nervous system to produce its regulatory peptides, thereby
prompting the body to heal itself... Because these peptides last for up to several hours, the healing process
continues long after the treatment is over.
The healing
process is ongoing for another reason. Disease occurs where portions of the body have been blocked from
communication with the energetic system that keeps it in balance. The Scenar begins a dialogue with these
blocked areas. Once the lines of communication have been re-established, the information-starved areas keep on
talking. They want to stretch and move and come back to life. Healing is reported not only in the nervous
system, but in conjunction with other chemical imbalances, correcting sleeplessness, appetite, behavioural
problems, learning ability, memory, sexual function, and overall physical health.
Arguably, these results
could be ascribed to the placebo effect, but British veterinarian, Roger Meacock has achieved results in animals.
He has successfully treated horses, pigs, cattle, sheep, dogs and cats with the Scenar, and has found it to be the
best available treatment, particularly for musculoskeletal injuries in horses as it gives rapid, profound healing
to tendon and ligament injuries. As for the principles behind Scenar treatment, Dr. Meacock explains that the body
has a finite amount of energy that must be divided among multiple functions. Its essential survival functions are
energy replacement (feeding), reproduction and the fight-or-flight response. Injuries need to be repaired, but only
sufficiently for the organism to maintain its survival functions. When repair reaches that level, the stressed
organism with insufficient energy for its needs abandons the healing process and returns to eating, reproducing and
fleeing enemies. The Scenar works on an information level to remind the body that it still has repair work to
do...
No unwanted side effects have been demonstrated from (the
Scenar) in over 20 years of use in Russia and Europe. The impulses sent by the device are similar to the
body's own nerve impulses and are quite safe, even for children and pregnant women... Russian research
indicates that for long-lasting effectiveness, chronic problems may need treatment three or four times a week
for up to six weeks. Acute problems, however, often resolve after only one or two treatments. Fresh injuries
or acute inflammatory processes may require intensive treatment once or twice daily for several weeks. They
should reduce gradually as the condition improves. " Natural Health and Vegetarian Life magazine, Winter
