Scenar - What is it?
SCENAR (Self-Controlled Energo Neuro Adaptive Regulator) is a pioneering device invented by Russian scientists for use in the Space Programme by cosmonauts.
Scenar therapy is a holistic form of treatment which stimulates the nervous system and teaches it to heal itself. Electrical impulses, the parameters of which are similar to endogenous nerve impulses, are transmitted through the skin to the nervous system. Fast-reacting, informational biofeedback means that each impulse is different from the previous one.
Scenar action influences adaptive processes of the organism and helps to harmonize them. In response to Scenar impulses the nervous system releases neuropeptides. They are delivered into the blood stream and broken down into many compounds which are themselves, bioactive. As a result, homeostasis is gradually and gently restored.

INTERX Treatment
Non-invasive treatment for pain that actually works
What is InterX Therapy?
InterX therapy is the targeted application of interactive Neurostimulation to manage and relieve the symptoms of pain and injury.
InterX therapy is applied using a hand held device which delivers gentle dynamic electrical impulses and stimulates the skin at the area of pain or inflammation.
What are the benefits?
Non-drug pain relief
Non-invasive application
Comfortable treatment
Effective results
How does InterX work?
1. Interactive stimulation via fixed electrodes is applied to areas of pain or injury.
2. The feedback from the skin in treated areas alters the stimulation that is delivered by the InterX. Primary treatment areas are identified by changes of skin colour, texture or sensation.
3. Treatment will then be targeted to those specific areas which have been identified as optimal treatment points.
4. Because the InterX therapy provides the ability to target treatment on optimal points, the benefit of treatment may be more effective than other modalities.
Who can be treated?
InterX therapy - is effective across a wide range of acute and chronic conditions.
Most people can be treated using InterX therapy. It is particularly effective in the reduction and management of pain and the resulting range of motion.
Caution should be taken when using any electrical impulse devices as they may interfere with other electrical medical products.
Your practitioner may advise against treatment if:
You have a pacemaker, insulin pump or other implanted functioning devices
You are pregnant or breast feeding
You have active cancerous tissues or are undergoing chemotherapy
You have a history of epilepsy or other seizures
InterX is safe and effective treatment for adults & children.
InterX technology is 5100(k) cleared by the US FDA for pain relief and pain management and carries the European CE mark.
What should I expect from treatment?
InterX therapy is a comfortable treatment. The procedure will involve applying the hand held device directly to the skin on or outside the injured or painful area.
The sensation of the electrical impulse will resemble a tingling or vibrating sensation. Your practitioner will adjust the sensation as needed throughout the treatment.
Typical treatment sessions will last from 15 to 30 minutes depending on the complexity of the condition. The number of treatment sessions required will be determined by your practitioner.
Generally a course of treatments is recommended over several weeks for optimal results. It is essential to complete the entire treatment course to experience the full benefits of InterX.
InterX treatment activates the nerve endings which may cause a temporary aggravation of symptoms, lightheadedness or tiredness. It is not unusual to experience improved sleeping patterns following treatment.
The full effect of a single treatment is generally experienced within a couple of hours and is often sustained for up to two days or longer. The cumulative effects of more than one treatment may enhance these results.
InterX Therapy may be used effectively on its own, or in conjunction with physical, occupational or other therapy.
