Scrambler Therapy is an electroanalgesia device designed to disrupt pain signals by sending complex “no pain” messages to the brain. It works by placing electrodes on the patient’s body, similar to a TENS unit. The treatment is gentle, aiming to avoid discomfort, and patients typically experience a mild tingling sensation.
Patients with mechanical pain (e.g., sharp, stabbing pain linked to movement) may not get full relief. However, Scrambler Therapy can sometimes identify hidden neuropathic pain, making it an effective diagnostic tool. Some patients choose to combine Scrambler Therapy with other treatments like Major Autohemotherapy (ozone IVs) and Plaquex IVs to reduce inflammation and repair nerve function.
Patients on nerve-blocking medications might not experience immediate relief, as these can interfere with the “no pain” signal. Some patients choose to taper off medications under a doctor’s supervision before starting Scrambler Therapy, while others start treatment and gradually reduce medication during the process. Patients who stay on medications may require additional sessions.
