SCENAR therapy is a form of electrical pulse therapy, where the SCENAR device (a small handheld device similar to a TV remote control) continuously adjusts the electrical impulses based on the organism's response. This is done through measuring the skin resistance. Unlike other forms of electrical therapy, the therapy impulses are not fixed (pre-determined), but are generated by the device according to the patient's current condition.
The main application area for SCENAR therapy is acute and chronic pain in the musculoskeletal system, especially in the muscles. Examples include shoulder-neck pain, lower back pain, or joint pain. Often, the treatment is used in conjunction with other forms of pain therapy.
