This excerpt is a part of a white paper put out by the Institute of Functional Medicine. To see the paper in its entirety you can download it here. Wouldn’t this be nice!
“The doctor of the future will be an integrative healer whose practice differs in many ways from that of today’s typical physician. The doctor of the future will provide care that is patient-centered and comprehensive (body, mind, and spirit), care that is both high-tech (using genomic prediction tools, systems biology, and functional medicine, for example) and high-touch. Care will focus more extensively on preventing disease and injury.
The practice of the future will be provided by smoothly working teams that will include primary care physicians, complementary and alternative health practitioners, health coaches, and wellness mentors, as well as medical specialists, allied health and nursing practitioners.
Putting the patient in the driver’s seat allows representatives from any number of disciplines to serve as navigator through the healthcare system, helping people sort through conflicting data as well as the many difficult choices they must make during their lives in times of both wellness and illness. Tomorrow’s physicians will consistently assess new evidence, to ensure that their practices meet the highest standards of quality and patient outcomes.
To a great degree, the body has the capacity to heal itself; this concept, in some ways, opposes the mechanical model in which doctors act as fixers. One goal of future practitioners will be to guide and empower patients toward self-healing. Consonant with this approach will be use of prevention and health promotion, the full range of natural treatments, use of the safest and least expensive interventions first, and also the mobilizing of community and social support for healthy living.
This vision of the future doctor does not reflect a purely in-the-clinic model. Future clinicians, if they are to be integrative healers, need to be out where people are and to participate in social and environmental policy change.”
Here is the latest edition of a magazine that has, for me, a fascinating slant.
The Quantum Health magazine is one of the most relevant, to my particular questions, that I have found. Healing has been a fascination with me always coming from my background of having polio as a two year old. In looking at the idea/reality that health/healing reveals, I’ve researched and written about it on many different levels. It has been a journey, which has brought me up on Quantum Theory and its implications. Check out Quantumly Curious for more, if you are interested.
In case you might not have seen the Cosmodic at work, here is a picture taken by professional photographer, Max Poppers.
I’ve learned through my entrepreneurship experience of over seven years that a picture of oneself is an important marketing tool. It lets people see you and get a better sense of who you are. Thus, I have used that tool in my own marketing of my work as a SCENAR practitioner.
Although much has been written about Alexander Karasev from his followers, I realized I had never seen a picture of him. So, after about an hour of searching the web, I actually found one. So, for what its worth, here is the mystery man.
Alexander Karasev has brought forth a new model called “The Slider” which combines the action of both the SCENAR and the Cosmodic during the treatment. Rather than the machine choosing which modality to work in related to an issue (as the Modific does), it determines the optimum relationship of the two modes for the area and treats with both at the same time.
We had found through experience that using the two devices (the Modific and SCENAR) in a treatment session was more effective than using either one alone. Apparently, we were on to something.
The Slider is now being field tested. Of course, it is expensive – $6069, and who knows if Dr. Karasev will ever submit his devices for FDA approval. If you are interested in the “older” Cosmodic/Modific technology, it appears that the prices now have dropped significantly, making it affordable for those who are interested in possibly purchasing one. Be aware that the primary protocol for the Cosmodic is on the back, so you will need someone else to be able to provide that treatment. However, it can be used for spot treatment, and unless the issue is on the back, one can self-treat (this is the same drawback for self-treatment with the SCENAR as well).
It is always wise to seek out those professionals who have experience with the SCENAR devices to explore what treatment and purchase options might best address your needs. We have helped numerous people who have contacted us from across the country to find SCENAR practitioners in their areas, as well as assisted them in understanding the philosophy and capabilities of the devices. If you would like help in exploring the usefulness of this technology, feel free to contact us as 828-337-6854.

Interesting that the latest Quantum Health would have an article about biophysics. I always enjoy this magazine. Check it out.
Over the last few months, I have become more and more fascinated by the question of what is happening between the SCENAR and the body on the quantum level. I have read several books about Quantum Mechanics and the Zero Point Field, but have felt like I still yet lacked a clear enough picture to write about it. Today, when looking at the comments that have come in, I found that most of them were about the Quantumly Curious page. This seemed an odd synchronicity, being that I have been deeply submerged in this world in my own research. Although, perhaps not so odd, knowing what I have learned from my reading.
I have become convinced that there is a level of activity that happens between the SCENAR and the body that is beyond the chemical and nervous systems responding to the signals they receive from the device. I am also more convinced than ever that what the SCENAR does can be done with our own native energetics when brought to bear on the energetics of another. In my own practice with the SCENAR, I have realized how my own energetic entanglement with my client can facilitate and enhance healing. It has added a depth and richness to my path as a healer.
I am currently working on another post to the Quantumly Curious page that will outline some of what I have learned. Will post it soon, so stay tuned…

Over the last several months we have worked with the Modific device developed by Alexander Karasev, the inventor of the SCENAR. This device has both the Cosmodic and Scenar modalities in it, and is nearly completely automatic. For instance, it decides whether to use the Cosmodic or Scenar modalities on a particular spot. It is claimed that the focus of this new technology is regeneration of the tissues. In using it over the last few months, we have noticed some things about it.
- It is quick to use, sessions usually are only 30 minutes in length.
- It is easy to use. Basic ability can be learned in one training.
- It appears to noticeably improve general health with ongoing sessions, and in some situations relieved symptoms of issues that were not the complaint we were working with. Enlarged prostate symptoms seem to be dramatically relieved.
- It appears to soothe the nervous system and improves mood during a session.
- It is not as sedating as Scenar and leaves a “spacious” feeling on spine after session (as reported by clients).
- The sensation level is automatic (although it can be overridden and operated manually). It can vary wildly while holding it on spot, but the signal is so gentle, that even at increasing sensation levels, it doesn’t bite or become too intense. The signal doesn’t appear to have the “edge” that the Scenar signal can.
- For us, working with Scenar for the last nearly 7 years, the Modific provides another perspective with which to evaluate what is happening in the body.
- It is not as quick acting on chronic conditions as Scenar can be.
- You cannot “stroke” the skin with it. It is a spot by spot kind of device. One of the strengths of the Scenar is in being able to search the skin for possibly related asymmetries. Thus, finding asymmetries doesn’t seem to be as easy and exact as with the Scenar. Additionally, being stroked with the Scenar is soothing and relaxing to the client.
- Support for the Cosmodic is very limited. It doesn’t have the organization behind it that Revenko has with RITM. That lack is very much like our experience in 2005 with the Scenar. From what I was told in a Modific introductory session last spring, Karasev is the “mad scientist” in his lab pursuing the goal of regeneration through vibration, and not really interested in such things as business and marketing, FDA approval, etc. I have no idea about the truth of that, but judging from the lack of structural business support and affordable/available training, it would seem that is the case.
- It is a delicate device, never to be dropped, and ergonomically it is extremely difficult to hold. The Scenar, which is not ergonomically the best either, is more of a workhorse: reliable, less expensive batteries, and easy to care for (I have to admit dropping my Scenar several times in the time I’ve been working with it, but it has never failed to work).
- There is a limited network of practitioners here in this country. Scenar has a large network of practitioners, with training and support available. Revenko provides training here twice a year.
We have used the Modific and SCENAR together, which seems to provide the best outcome. They appear to compliment each other and enhance the overall healing effect. Time will tell where the development of the technology of both devices goes.

This spring has been on steroids. With all the graduations, weddings, putting out a vegetable garden, etc., I’ve been short on time to think about writing, much less had the opportunity to sit down to write. It has felt like being on the receiving end of a fire hose in the face! I have a notebook page full of possible posts that have revealed themselves to me in the melee, without the moments to develop them. Except for a new grandbaby to arrive the end of July, things are now looking like they will mellow just a bit, and I will be able to resume this effort that I have such passion about.
I had a personal experience with the SCENAR that impressed me. After discovering a sizable ants nest in the garden, I boiled a large pot of water to encourage them to take their endeavors elsewhere. In carrying it out to the nest, I accidentally sloshed a wave of the boiling hot water on to the underside of my right forearm and wrist. It was excruciatingly painful. I put the pot down, ran back into the house, and immediately poured cold tap water on it. Even after that, it was so painful that I could barely stand it. Knew I had to get the SCENAR on it, but the idea of anything touching it was appalling.
I decided to turn the sensation level down to low and see if I could stand it. I turned the frequency up as high as it would go (the recommendation for acute injury) and held my breath as I placed it on the worst area (around my wrist where my superheated glove rim had kept the hot water against my skin). Within a couple of seconds, the pain began to ease. Encouraged, I did the same thing over the whole area, picking the SCENAR up and gently putting it down in a grid over the wounded area. After about 20 minutes, the pain and tenderness had been relieved completely, and I went back out to continue with the job. I didn’t think much more about it for the rest of the afternoon. That night, there was still no pain or even tenderness, and some of the redness had gone away. I treated it again, more thoroughly this time. By the next day the deep redness had paled, and much of it was gone. I treated it the second night, and haven’t treated it since. Surprisingly, it never blistered. Now, two weeks later, the skin on my wrist has a pale brown “bracelet” where the wound was the worst . When I think what the experience of healing that kind of burn would have been without SCENAR I’m more convinced than ever that everyone should have one in their home first aid kit.
