SCENAR History Stories
Having hung out in the “SCENAR world” for the last five years, I’ve learned some interesting history of the device, both from those who know, as well as rumor. I have pieced together this perspective.
When we took the Masters Level Training with Dr. Revenko and his wife, Dr. Galina Subbotina (who taught the Cosmotology class), we spent 11 hours a day with them for three days. We had some time, before and after class and on breaks, to hang out with them. Dr. Revenko speaks little English, but his wife is very fluent.
On a break, I asked Dr. Subbotina how Dr. Revenko and Dr. Karasev (the engineer in the SCENAR space program) got together over the development of the SCENAR.
This is the story she told me:
Dr. Karasev originally developed the technology. When he felt like he had the device to where he could present it for funding for further development, he went to several government agencies as was turned down because of lack of research. So, he went to Dr. Revenko, the head of the neurology department at the university where Karasev was a student. Dr. Revenko also turned him down. That evening Dr. Revenko was the last to leave the office and when he stepped into the waiting area, there was Karasev.
Karasev asked him to just look at the device, give it a chance, before he decided he wasn’t interested. So, they talked and Revenko took the device home with him. He was intrigued with it. The next day when Karasev arrived, Revenko had a list of questions about what Karasev might be able to add to the way the machine worked. Karasev had the updated device to him the next day. Impressed, Revenko asked for another amendment which Karasev delivered. This happened a few times. Then they teamed up to do the preliminary research and to later present the device to the government for funding. They were funded and together set up the top secret SCENAR Russian Space Program. They ran it until Peristroika shut the program down.

So, this is what I’ve been able to piece together from my immersion in this field. What I write below is not verifiable but it makes an interesting story. It has come from reading and talking to other SCENAR practitioners.
After the SCENAR space program shut down, Karasev offered for Revenko to take the prototype and develop it, because he wanted to develop his own line of SCENAR devices. Revenko took the prototype and developed the RITM SCENAR. Karasev set up his own company and has created his own line of SCENARs.
The two men have very different ideas about how the machine should be used most effectively. Karasev believes that the machine should be capable of doing the treatment itself with little input from the operator. Revenko believes that a well trained and experienced pratitioner is central to the effectiveness that can be achieved. Karasev wants every home to have one in their first aid kit. Revenko sees the the machine being most effectively used in a therapeutic office environment with a skilled practitioner.
In reality, the RITM and Let Medical machines are being used by practitioners as well as by people at home. We use one of Karasev’s SCENARs as well as the RITM SCENAR in our treatments. Each machine has its strengths. We like both of them for different reasons and the combination seems to work well in our sessions.
I have read that what motivated Karasev to develop the SCENAR was the loss of two of his relatives to a disease that devastated his home town. He wanted to create something that would protect and promote health. Revenko is a doctor and an educator, both fields endeavoring to improve the well being of others. The SCENAR has had an organic evolution. It was not developed as a “get rich quick” quackery device. Our FDA accepted it into this country as a Class II Medical Device in 2003.
Healing Innovations was created out of our desire to share this amazing technology and help people to achieve pain relief and renew their sense of well being.
