Your Patients Will Love Scrambler Therapy Too!

"For over 22 years, right hip pain plagued me due to Osteoarthritis. Medications like Norco® and a Fentanyl Patch left me sluggish and drugged. When the pain spread to my back and hands, meds weren't an option anymore. My doctor mentioned Scrambler Therapy®. After 6 months of waiting, I tried it. To my disbelief, the first treatment relieved my pain. My fingers went from claw like to functional, and life became manageable again. I restore antiques using my hands daily, and Scrambler Therapy® changed everything. Boosters make me feel even better. It's like a miracle—I've regained "ME." I cycle, ski, and live fully."

Gloria B. / Sandy, OR

"After my second session of Scrambler Therapy, I was at home and got up from a chair and got halfway across a room before I realized what I was doing. I Didn’t have any pain. I Didn’t struggle. I Didn’t grab my cane. I Didn’t think that was ever going to be possible again in my life.”

Tom / Portland, OR

"My chronic pain was so intense I lost my will to live. Over 30 doctors tried to alleviate the pain, but they could only provide slight, temporary relief. Over a two year timespan I went to over 350 medical visits, and had so many tests, injections, and nerve blocks I lost count. Then I learned of Scrambler Therapy. It sounded too good to be true given all the disappointments - I didn't believe there could be anything that could help. After 3 treatments I could walk normally again. By the end of the 10th treatment my pain was gone. Scrambler Therapy treatments, quite literally, saved my life."

Connor C. / McKinney, TX

“Had no hope of getting relief from the diabetic neuropathy in my feet. Now the pain,

burning and sensitivity is gone. Amazing.”

Bill / Portland, OR

"I felt so hopeless and helpless with my daughters chronic pain that was leaving her debilitated. Every option seemed worse than the next…surgery…possible addiction…drugs that would reduce her ability to live her life normally. We refused them all and we’re determined to grind it out with PT in hopes the pain would subside. We heard about scrambler therapy around 8 months into her ordeal. I was all for it…she was not. She was understandably afraid of it making her worse and also of me having paid the cost of it and it not working. Finally she agreed to at least give it a try. At first it really didn’t seem to be her answer. She experienced some relief, but it was minimal and short lived. We were encouraged by the stories of others success however so we decided to stick it out a while longer. On day nine while on the machine my daughter looked up and said that her pain was a “zero”. We got in the car to go home…both emotional. She looked me in the eye and said “it’s gone”. Chills ran down my spine. “What do you mean” I asked. “I mean it’s gone Mom. It’s not coming back.” She was right; it was gone and it has not come back. Scrambler therapy was nothing short of a miracle treatment for my daughter. There isn’t a day that goes by that I am not grateful for her having her life back pain free."

Why Top Clinics Are Turning to Scrambler Therapy for Chronic Pain Relief

April 26, 20245 min read

For healthcare professionals seeking to revolutionize treatment for their patients, Scrambler Therapy stands as a testament to innovation and effectiveness in pain management. This breakthrough treatment addresses the root cause of chronic pain. It opens up a new chapter in patient recovery, all without the complications of traditional pain management strategies.

The Future of Pain Management: What Is Scrambler Therapy?

Scrambler Therapy, developed in Italy by Professor Giuseppe Marineo, marks a pivotal shift in how we can better manage patients' pain. This noninvasive technology, embodied in the Model ST-5A, has been carving out a new path in the treatment of neuropathic and oncologic pain conditions.

Unlike traditional pain relief methods, Scrambler Therapy utilizes a biophysical rather than biochemical approach, focusing on the body's natural ability to reorganize neural pathways.

The therapy works by transmitting a series of 'non-pain' signals through the skin to the nervous system. These signals are designed to mimic normal nerve messages, essentially communicating with the brain to reset its understanding of pain in areas affected by chronic conditions. Through this process, known as neuromodulation, patients experience a significant reduction in pain intensity with immediate effects. The principle underlying this innovative treatment is neuroplasticity— the brain's capacity to adapt and rewire itself, offering a promising horizon for those whose lives are overshadowed by chronic pain.

Intended for patients grappling with conditions such as Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), diabetic neuropathy, and failed back surgery syndrome, Scrambler Therapy represents a significant leap forward. It offers hope where traditional treatments have fallen short. It provides a new avenue for enhancing patient care without the adverse effects associated with drugs or surgery.

By integrating Scrambler Therapy into clinical practice, healthcare professionals can offer their patients a pioneering treatment option backed by clinical trials and endorsements from authoritative institutions.

As you explore options for your patients, consider the lasting benefits and transformative potential of incorporating Scrambler Therapy into your practice.

Clinical Outcomes and Effectiveness

The effectiveness of Scrambler Therapy in managing chronic pain is supported by robust clinical outcomes, with success rates ranging between 80% to 90%. These impressive figures represent tangible improvements in the quality of life for patients suffering from chronic neuropathic and oncologic pain. 

Prestigious health institutions, including the Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins, and MD Anderson Cancer Center, have been at the forefront of conducting clinical trials since 2009. Their research highlights the therapy's potential to greatly reduce pain where traditional methods have fallen short.

The New England Journal of Medicine, among other reputable medical journals, has published findings from these trials, offering an in-depth look at the therapy's impact and the science backing its effectiveness. This highlights the incredible reception of Scrambler Therapy in the medical community as a promising alternative to conventional pain management strategies.

Encouraging patients to explore these studies can also strengthen their confidence in opting for the treatment. It can provide them with the assurance that their choice is grounded in proven, research-backed results. As medical practitioners, guiding patients toward informed decisions is paramount, and the wealth of positive clinical data supporting Scrambler Therapy serves as a solid foundation.

The Practicalities of Offering Scrambler Therapy

Integrating Scrambler Therapy into your practice entails a straightforward setup and training process designed to complement your medical operations. The investment for the Scrambler Therapy device (Model ST-5A) includes a 3-day training session. This training is essential, preparing your team to deliver this noninvasive treatment effectively and ensuring that patients receive the care they need with the professionalism they expect.

The device itself is compact, requiring minimal space within your clinic, and can be easily accommodated without significant alterations to your existing setup. Consideration for patient comfort and privacy during treatment will enhance their experience; a factor easily managed within most clinical environments.

Logistics, including patient scheduling and flow, are important to address, given the therapy requires about ten sessions for optimal results. Clear communication with patients about the process and benefits of Scrambler Therapy is important to managing expectations and enhancing treatment outcomes.

Embracing Scrambler Therapy into your patient care is more than adding a service. It’s about enriching your practice with an effective and accessible solution for pain sufferers to reclaim their lives.

With minimal infrastructure adjustments and a focused training program, any size medical practice is easily able to offer this advanced treatment, underlining your commitment to forefront patient care solutions.

Expanding Access to Scrambler Therapy

Expanding access to Scrambler Therapy is a massive step toward broadening the horizons of pain management across patient demographics. The goal is clear: to ensure that this transformative treatment reaches those in dire need, transcending geographical and financial barriers. 

Key strategies include strengthening partnerships with insurance companies to advocate for coverage, thereby reducing the financial burden on patients. Engaging in community outreach and education can elevate awareness, making Scrambler Therapy a known option for those suffering from chronic pain.

By promoting relationships with medical professionals nationwide and providing comprehensive training, the network of certified Scrambler Therapy providers can grow, enhancing patient access. Your role in this expansion is critical. By adopting or sharing it with your higher-ups and colleagues, you contribute to a larger movement. You help set new standards in care and offer a lifeline to many who have yet to find relief.

Together, we can bridge the gap, making pain relief more attainable and changing lives for the better.

Scrambler Therapy presents a partnership in patient care that aligns with the highest aspirations of medical practice. By choosing to support your patients with Scrambler Therapy, you're reaffirming your commitment to patient-centered care, where safety, efficacy, and the pursuit of a pain-free life are paramount.
