I have practiced physicial therapy for 33 years. During these years, I have been referred many patients with what we call ITB syndrome–a severe tendonitis of the massive tendon sheath of the lateral thigh called the illiotibial band. It is a wicked inflammatory condition that doctors and therapists hate to see because its treamtent many times is difficult and doesn’t achieve lasting relief. Patients frequently get into the medical shuffle of being referred to orthopedics, pain specialists, and physical therapists over and over.
The pain specialists usually inject multiple trigger areas with one anti-inflammatory medication or another and may attain 50% success. That leaves many who never achieve relief after seeing a maze of specialists. The pain is usually worse in the evening hours and often is so severe that people cannot tolerate lying on either side to sleep. Sleep is usually greatly disrupted.
Little did I know that I myself would have this problem. Several years ago, I believe I overly stretched in a yoga class. Great pain set in on the outer sides of each thigh. After a year, I was still dealing with the problem. I received only temporary relief with my own modalities of ultrasound, electrical stimulation, and massage. I refused to proceed with injections into trigger areas of what I consider to be invasive drugs.
It was then that I heard about SCENAR from a friend and decided it wouldn’t hurt to give it a try. After 3 sessions I began having relief. After 10 sessions my pain was 80% reduced and I decided to invest in a home SCENAR unit. I am now 95 to 100% free of pain in my thighs. Whenever I have the least symptoms, I simply treat myself with the home unit and circumvent any substantial pain recurrence.
I am so very glad I know about Penny Bond and Kathy Austin and their Healing Innovations work. I am very grateful for the relief and benefit I have received from SCENAR.

I am a diabetic. I came to Healing Innovations because my doctor was talking about amputation of my left leg. A vein had been taken out of my left leg for my triple bypass, and I had only 22% vascular circulation in that leg. I slept on the couch every night to keep the circulation in my foot. The pain was extreme, and I hated to go to sleep at night.
After my first treatment from Healing Innovations, I started to feeling warmth in my leg. After a few treatments I could sleep in my bed, and my leg and foot began looking better. Because we were leaving to spend the winter in Florida, my husband and I decided to get a home SCENAR device.
I used the SCENAR all winter in Florida. Then I went back to my vascular surgeon when we came back home to North Carolina. The ultrasound showed that the circulation in my left leg was 74%. My doctor was ecstatic! He said, “I could kiss those toes they look so great!” No more talk of amputation!
I was so close to losing my leg, and now the improvement is incredible. I sleep all night in my bed without pain. Isn’t that a miracle?

After my first bike ride this season, I was in agony. My right leg from my knee to my ankle hurt so badly I could hardly walk. That night I used my SCENAR on my leg repeatedly. Upon waking up the next morning I expected to not be able to walk, but to my surprise and delight, I was totally pain free.
I had neck surgery to repair a bad disc. After about 9 months the numbness and tingling returned to my right hand. I thought I would need another operation. Since using the SCENAR on my neck, I have no plans for surgery as my problem has gotten 95% better.

We have been so jammed up I have not had time to write to tell you how pleased we are with the SCENAR device.
When Bert got bitten by a dog in Italy and had a huge gash in his knee (where you could actually see the cartilage!) the SCENAR healed it in near-miraculous time. When he got a migraine, he put it on each temple and it disappeared in 3 minutes instead of three days.
We were in Panama and met the victim of medical malpractice who, 10 years after going into a coma, is now able to talk and walk because of his mother’s refusal to “just let him live like a vegetable”. A friend asked us to see him. We used the SCENAR on his left foot which was in a spastic condition because of the prolonged seizure and coma he experienced. The same was true of both hands and his other foot. He said that what bothered him the most was the foot spasticity . As we worked on his foot, it unfurled as well as both of his hands! It was pretty close to a technologically mediated miracle.

Through the advice of a friend, I came to see Penny Bond over at Healing Innovations of Ashevile and began 8 sessions with a machine called a SCENAR.
This non-invasive machine has, for the first time in 12 years, improved the level of pain in my legs.
Over a period of two weeks, I went from being crippled and dilapidated to a healthy and active overall feeling of well-being. The simple act of walking up a flight of steps has become less daunting and comparatively easy! Sitting for extended periods of time-at work or in the car-has become tolerable, and I no longer break into tears on a daily basis from the pain. Sitting on hard surfaces, where before was impossibly painful, has become doable.
I am beginning to move my body in ways that before were too painful. My muscles, legs, and body feel stronger than I can remember them ever feeling over the course of the past 12 years.
I feel so very fortunate to have found a machine that is such a “miracle worker.”

Penny worked with me over the period of several months on several issues. First was treatment for a very sore shoulder which she healed in about 3 treatments with the Scenar device. She also helped with general joint discomfort and neck stiffness.
I found Penny to be an absolute professional and her knowledge of the Scenar technology and her medical background made her a key resource for me for these past ailments and will continue to be a key resource for me in the future.
I recommend her highly.

I got to know Penny through the Board of Directors of our media non-profit Little Pearls. Curious about her work with SCENAR, I went for an initial free session and have had multiple follow-up sessions since then, for various reasons. The most recent treatments have been for supporting healing after complex hand surgeries.
Penny is highly skilled and truly present as she works with you, intuiting what is needed and offering great insights and information to take home and use. She is a natural healer AND teacher. With SCENAR in her gifted hands, I can actually feel my body’s healing energies respond – it’s like a call-and-response on a cellular level. I highly recommend Penny – she’s a Pearl!

I decided to be treated by Penny and Kathy for multiple pain issues caused by being hit by a truck while walking across a street in October 2006. We’ve mainly been focusing on my feet upper back, neck and head for structural damage caused by the accident, as well as other longer term issues.
Let me tell you what I’ve noticed: When I was 12, I had a nerve cut in my left ankle during surgery. I had been a chronic ankle sprainer of both my right and left ankles during my childhood and early adult experience. With the nerve cut on my left ankle, I could no longer move my toes well, or feel the ground underneath the pad or in the toes of that foot. I now have total feeling. My left arch had problems stemming from repeat trauma and would invariably fall causing a great deal of pain. My arch has improved dramatically. My body is now communicating with my feet. I have had visceral shifting in my pelvis after a treatment focused only on my feet and lower legs!
We’ve also been addressing the upper back, neck and head. I kissed the hood of the truck, which resulted in me breaking my face. My jaw had suffered long-term TMJ prior to the accident, but became exponentially worse after kissing the truck’s hood. My jaw is functioning much more smoothly now.
We’ve still got a lot more ground to cover (I was pretty badly beaten — 2 tons of steel generally wins over flesh and bone!), but I am excited and encouraged by the results I have had with just 4 treatments.
Thank you SO much Ladies for introducing me to this wonderful technology, and for taking such great care of me during the treatment process.

Penny, your very precise SCENAR treatment on my right jaw on May 10 has made a HUGE difference! I had been dosing with my simple home SCENAR, but your knowledge and skill, plus your SCENAR’s ability to get accurate readings on where my body was not communicating and how the dosing was going, have made all the difference. I could hardly chew before, and though I’m still being careful during the healing process, your one treatment has made a HUGE difference. THANKS, PENNY!

I was introduced to scenar earlier this year- what a difference it has made in my life- I have had chronic right shoulder problems for several years-Thanks to scenar it is pain free and I can sleep on my right side again– Then, I had a recurrence of tinnitis-As anyone who has had this condition knows it is one stressful condition- again, thanks to scenar it is gone- I am so thrilled with scenar that I have shared these experiences with many people. Thank you, Penny:)
