The scenar uses biofeedback- 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 reestablish the bodys 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 with other chemical imbalances, correcting sleeplessness,
appetite and behavioral problems.
