Cosmodic Session

In case you might not have seen the Cosmodic at work, here is a picture taken by professional photographer, Max Poppers.

Cosmodic Musings

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.

1. It is quick to use, sessions usually are only 30 minutes in length.
2. It is easy to use. Basic ability can be learned in one training.
3. 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.
4. It appears to soothe the nervous system and improves mood during a session.
5. It is not as sedating as Scenar and leaves a “spacious” feeling on spine after session (as reported by clients).
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. It is not as quick acting on chronic conditions as Scenar can be.
9. 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.
10. 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.
11. 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).
12. 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.

SCENAR Research in Peer Reviewed Journal

Although there is a great deal of Russian research on the SCENAR, there have been few blinded, randomized, controlled studies in the West. One such study, published in 2007, was carried out by a research team at Macquarie University in Australia. The device studied is called the ENAR which is the same device as the SCENAR. The condition chosen to study was chronic neck pain.

Twenty-four people, who had not received therapy for three months prior, were divided into three groups. The first group was treated with Transcutaneous Nerve Stimulation (TENS) therapy, another group received ENAR therapy, and the control group unknowingly received a sham treatment. The sham treatment was set up by telling all participants that they may or may not feel any sensations during the treatment. In the sham group, the device was turned off. The study was therefore a single blinded study, as the researchers knew who was receiving the sham treatment.

Results showed that people who received the TENS therapy were no better off than if they received no therapy at all, whereas people who received the ENAR therapy found that not only had their pain levels improved, so had their functional capabilities and quality of life.

You can find the full study at Chiropractic and Osteopathy. It is also listed in PubMed.

Good, Good, Good, Good Vibrations

Spiritual sojourners and religious mystics have told us from antiquity that we are so much more than what we think we are: that we are connected to each other and everything that makes up the entire universe (God, if that is your concept) in a deep and profound way. Not understanding what constitutes that “connection” has hampered our ability to grasp its nature.

With the emergence of Quantum Theory we have been offered another view of the universe that boggles the mind in its applications.  Einstein is actually the one who paved the way for a scientific understanding of what shamans,  yogis, and medicine have been doing for 5000 years.  He provided the idea that energy and matter are dual expressions of the same universal substance. That universal substance is energy. Energy is vibration. The modern science of super string theory teaches that fundamentally the universe is pure vibration. At the particle level, Quantum physics shows that all matter is really energy.

Everything living vibrates at certain frequencies. We humans, like the universe in which we live, are beings of energy. We are actually a series of interacting, mutidimensional energy systems that are manifested on the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual levels of expression. Each aspect (from the cells to the systems) of our bodies is a part of this bioenergetic communications network and continuously generates a stream of vibratory information. The body is aware in that communication of the needs of the smallest part, and in its magnificent self-regulatory ability coordinates the response to bring balance back to the whole being. We call this health.

We are so much more than mere flesh and bones, cells and proteins. We are electrical and magnetic beings existing in dynamic interaction and equilibrium with a universe of energy that is similarly electrical and magnetic.

We know that the human body, when awake, vibrates at a frequency of 62-72 Hz.  Disease sets in when the frequency drops. The level of our vibration is nourished in many ways including what we think, feel, believe, see, hear, smell, touch, eat, drink, breathe and are exposed to. It is amazing to realize that our human body is able to balance these internal and external vibrations and find its own equilibrium or health.

Vibrational medicine is based on the intersecting aspects of the sciences of biology, physiology, chemistry, and physics and looks at the subtleties of human structure and patterns of energy in interaction. Now there is a global interest and research into the clinical application of the principles of bioenergetics. Systems like homeopathy, Ayurvedic medicine, and acupuncture are being investigated with new interest. New treatment modalities such as SCENAR have been developed. The discoveries resulting from this research have made it possible for today’s health care practitioners to work with subtler forms of energy and apply interventions that stimulate the body’s restorative systems without the side-effects associated with the use of pharmacological substances.

The SCENAR, developed in the Russian space program, engages in a vibrational conversation with the body through the skin. Reading the skin for electromagnetic imbalances or “asymmetries”, it can identify where they are and communicate with the body in a back and forth energetic conversation through electrical signals about the imbalance. The body responds through its capacity to regulate itself. This involves many systems, one of which is the neurological system which releases neuropeptides (among them being endorphins) that facilitates the restoration of functional balance; and the symptoms, including pain, are ameliorated. The device works effectively as an anti-aging treatment by stimulating circuits throughout the nervous system. When used on the face it is restorative and rejuvenative. There is a whole aspect of SCENAR application in Cosmetology.

We are entering a new and exciting era related to how we understand our bodies, ourselves, and the nature of healing. As we come to understand ourselves as vibrational beings, perhaps we will realize that everyone is a potential energetic healer to everyone else, and that we are all healers to ourselves. To this end, the SCENAR is a powerful bridge to give us an experience of a way of healing we may not have considered.

Avocado – A Health Food

We have found over the six years of providing SCENAR therapy, that an individual’s nutrition can enhance the effectiveness of the therapy. The body is being asked to produce the resources to heal itself. If the nutrition is optimum, the body has all of the resources it needs to answer the request for a healing response. For this reason, talking with our clients about health promoting nutrition is important to facilitating our efforts in helping them recover.

One of the most interesting, nutritious, and delicious foods that nourishes the body in healthy ways is the avocado. This tasty green food is believed to originate in Peru, as archaeologists have found avocado seeds buried with mummies dating back to 750B.C. The avocado is technically classified as a fruit because it has seeds.

In Guatemala the fruit, dried leaves, bark, and seeds have been used medicinally by the indigenous natives. The soft green tissue of this fruit holds nearly 20 vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients and is a source of healthy fat. Many parents serve mashed avocado to their babies as it is a nutrient-dense food that helps with brain development. Avocados are also considered to be the second least pesticide contaminated food available (but, to be safe, always buy organic). Read more »

Spring Opportunities

This is a glorious spring! So wonderful after the hibernation of winter. Seems like there is “eye candy” everywhere!

In keeping with the parasympathetic plethora of enthusiastic blossoming, we at Healing Innovations are offering a new opportunity to experience the SCENAR in a way that is more affordable and efficient. Heretofore, we have offered hour long sessions only, but have found because of our work in other practitioner settings, that half hour sessions are as effective and considerably more affordable for our clients.

So, beginning April 15th we will be offering our clients half hour sessions for $45 per session. If you are a new client, the first evaluation session would need to be an hour at our usual charge of $65. Thereafter, the treatment sessions would be half an hour. If you pay in advance for four sessions you receive a 10% discount which would make the total cost for the four only $162. Usually, within 5 sessions (the total including the initial visit) our clients are experiencing noticeable pain relief.

Mention that you read about this offer on the blog and get the initial evaluation at half price!

Watch your well being blossom this spring and experience how SCENAR can help you stay pain free and active all summer long!

Call 828-337-6854 today to schedule an appointment!

More Musing About Healers

It has been nearly a year since I first posted musings about healers and healing.  I continually muse about this, trying to get a fuller picture of the amazing process I engage on a daily basis, both within myself and also with others. I encountered a description given by Abraham that gave me a fuller insight into what healers are about, which made so much sense to me that I wanted to share it:

“Every person who lives any experience that takes them in the slightest degree away from well-being, begins to summon well-being. And to that, Source responds, so no one on the planet needs to be a healer in the sense that they need to get energy and focus it towards someone who needs to be healed.

The power of a healer is someone who understands that the basis is one of well-being, and then influences the vibration of the one who needs to be healed in a way that they stop the resistance and allow the natural healing process. That’s what true healers do. They know so powerfully that wellness is the order of the day, that they allow themselves not for a moment to see anything other than that.

So, the power of the healer is in the power to influence the one who needs to be healed into a vibration that allows the healing that they are summoning, that they could get without the healer, but that they can get faster with the healer’s influence.”

It is getting clearer…
