"Scrambler Therapy: Thinking Beyond the Gate Control Theory" From ASRA Pain Medicine News, November 2024. See the original article at www.asra.com/november24news for figures and references. This material is copyrighted. Support the show

Dr. Rosenblum reviews the benefits of Scrambler Therapy for CRPS and Neuropathic Pain State.  What is Scrambler Therapy? Efficacy of Scrambler Therapy for Neuropathic Pain  Mechanism of action of Scrambler Therapy Regenerative Pain Management Course PainExam Board Prep NRAP Academy Private Tutorials for Ultrasound Guidance and Regenerative Medicine ST was introduced as a chronic pain relief method in 2003. That same year, Giuseppe Marineo published findings from a small clinical trial involving 11 terminal cancer patients suffering from drug-resistant chronic visceral pain, with all participants showing positive responses and significant reductions in pain scores. In a subsequent trial involving 226 patients with neuropathic pain, 80% reported a 50% reduction in pain. Since then, numerous case reports and studies have documented the use of ST for various pain types. Evidence from these reports suggests that ST is effective for managing both acute and chronic pain from different causes. For instance, a child with acute mixed pain, resistant to pharmacological treatment, experienced significant relief after four ST sessions, with pain levels dropping from 5/10 to 0/10. Additionally, a 52-year-old woman with burning pain from her foot to knee, stemming from a right medullary acute hemorrhage and suffering for 12 years, reported immediate relief after ST. Her pain score decreased from 9/10 to 3/10 on the first day, and to 0/10 by the second day, remaining below 1 on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) throughout the 10-day treatment period. In terms of chronic pain, literature includes a case where a patient with shoulder joint pain and limited range of motion saw significant pain reduction and increased mobility after 10 sessions of ST. ST has shown considerable promise in treating severe pain conditions that are typically difficult to manage, such as complex regional pain syndrome and pain related to HIV. Despite the encouraging results from these case studies, higher-quality evidence is necessary to establish the efficacy of ST, which could be obtained through extensive clinical trials, particularly focusing on chronic pain. Besides the aforementioned studies by Marineo and Sabato et al, additional trials have indicated that ST is an effective treatment for various chronic pain conditions, including low back pain, postherpetic pain, and neuropathic pain. For instance, a prospective study on chronic low back pain patients showed a significant decrease in VAS scores from 8.12 to 3.63 after six treatment days. Another trial involving 10 patients with postherpetic pain reported a drop in the average Numeric Rating Scale (NRS-11) score from 7.64 to 1.46 at baseline and 0.42 to 0.89 after one month, with benefits persisting at two and three months. ST has also demonstrated significant potential in treating neuropathic pain. In a prospective study of 45 patients with neuropathic pain lasting over three months, 28 experienced a decrease in Douleur Neuropathique en 4 questions (DN4) pain scores, with four patients stopping treatment early due to complete pain resolution. The mean baseline DN4 score dropped from 5.67 to 2.82 by the end of treatment. A pilot randomized trial involving 52 patients found that 21 out of 26 in the intervention group achieved complete pain relief. While the findings from these studies, along with others that have been systematically analyzed, suggest strong evidence for the efficacy of ST, a definitive conclusion regarding its effectiveness has not yet been reached. A systematic review by Majithia et al concluded that while studies generally indicate ST results in pain reduction with lasting benefits, there are still gaps in the evidence. This article aims to evaluate the research needs surrounding ST for cancer pain management. While Majithia et al focused on chronic pain across various conditions and noted specific evidence limitations, this study will concentrate on the effectiveness of ST for cancer-related pain. The objective is to identify gaps in the existing literature and provide recommendations for future research through a systematic review. We will specifically analyze the types and levels of evidence supporting the use of ST in managing cancer pain and determine what studies are necessary to enhance the evidence base.

Hi friends! I’m thrilled to welcome P. Bredon Lundberg to the show today to talk about something extremely prevalent and sometimes misunderstood: pain.  How big is the chronic pain problem? What’s the difference between acute and chronic pain? Doesn't pain mean something is wrong? And the brain’s incredible ability to change its perception of pain in the body. Here’s a little bit about Brendon: P. Brendon Lundberg, a previous chronic pain suffer, co-founded Radiant Pain Relief Centres, along with David Farley, MD, a Harvard-MIT trained physician, with a vision to build the safest, most consistently effective and appealing solution to the epidemic of chronic pain. Combining a mission to change the way chronic pain is understood treated with deep experience in healthcare management, marketing, business development and sales, Brendon and Dr. David Farley opened Radiant Pain Relief Centres in Portland, Oregon, USA, in February 2014. Following the success of the first center, they are laying out a plan for expansion to open new centers in new markets nationally and internationally. Their story and vision for the future of pain management can be understood by reading their book, Radiant Relief – A Case For A Better Solution To Chronic Pain. Previous to founding Radiant, Brendon played key operational and business development roles for two Portland-Area Portland Business Journal and Inc. Magazine Growth Award winning companies, and was the Director of Sales and Marketing for another Portland-based medical device start-up. Brendon holds a BS in business marketing and an MBA.   Some of the things we discuss in this episode: What is the latest scientific understanding of pain and why more doctors or therapies aren't utilizing this recent science Neuroplasticity and the brain’s potential to learn and change How Radiant's Scrambler Therapy works Does changing the brain's perception of pain create more risk? Brendon also gives some incredible insight on cultivating happiness, improving productivity, and his entrepreneurial journey    Resources from this episode: Radiant Relief The Radiant Relief book Connect with Brendon on Instagram Brendon Burchard high performance academy  If you’re working out at home this summer or traveling, click here to get 21 days FREE of Les Mills On Demand.  Thank you so much for listening and for all of your support with the podcast!

With a vision to build the safest, most consistently effective and non-invasive solution to the epidemic of chronic pain, Brendon Lundberg (a chronic pain survivor himself) co-founded Radiant Pain Relief Centres in Oregon. The centres use an FDA-approved and Mayo Clinic-tested treatment for chronic pain called Scrambler Therapy, which targets the brain’s response to pain in the body and aims to retrain its feedback loop by encouraging neuroplasticity. Brendon combines his mission to change the way chronic pain is treated with deep experience in healthcare management and business development; he and his co-founder, David B. Farley, M.D., released their book, Radiant Relief – A Case For A Better Solution To Chronic Pain in 2018. In this episode, Brendon sits down with Lauren to discuss the his work and the growth of Radiant Pain Relief Centres, as well as to share some beautiful stories of healing – and triumph over pain. Listen in as Brendon shares…  - about the therapy, education, and experience that Radiant Pain Relief Centres deliver  - how chronic pain affects patients, and the joy of helping them heal  - that all pain is neurogenic, though experienced in the tissue – its origin is in the brain  - that most doctors are trained in outdated pain research from the 1960s, and newer technologies and research are much more comprehensive and offer hope for relief  - that many chronic pain patients are disbelieved or brushed off by medical practitioners  - the definition of chronic pain, and how chronic pain is a protective function of the brain that’s become maladaptive  - that Radiant Pain Relief Centres use an FDA-approved and tested treatment for chronic pain called Scrambler Therapy, which encourages neuroplasticity: attaching electrodes to the skin in proximity to the site of pain, and sending signals to the brain to rewire its understanding of pain at the site  - how neuroplasticity works: it dynamically re-trains the brain; and the brain learns through repetition  - that patients average an 84% reduction of pain using the technology at Radiant Pain Relief Centres, over the course of a few weeks of treatment  - how life-changing chronic pain relief can be  - his take on the opioid crisis  - why Radiant Pain Relief Centres shares a heart-centered mission for Brendon: because he is a survivor of chronic pain, which he has successfully treated using Scrambler Therapy  - the neuroscience of pain: how the brain triggers the nervous system and tissues in the body to experience pain  - the most prominent side effect of Scrambler Therapy: fatigue, because the brain is working overtime to balance and adapt  - that, because of pain’s origin in the brain, pain relief treatment can be accelerated when a psychological element is at play  - the few restrictions on treatment at Radiant Pain Relief Centres: expectant mothers and MS survivors  - Brendon’s take on the current US healthcare model  - that the relief of chronic pain begets patient empowerment and freedom 

Founder of the Radiant Relief Pain Centers in Oregon shares their experiences with a new, powerful technology that can completely resolve chronic pain for most people. How the brain becomes locked in a pain response & how Scrambler Therapy rewires it to resolve the pain.

In episode 142 I got the chance to talk with Brendon Lundberg from Radiant Pain Relief about their upcoming Reg A+ Crowdfunding campaign. Radiant Pain Relief Centres offer a unique and progressive treatment for chronic pain, which helps retrain the brain and restore it back to a more normal, healthy perception of pain. We have treated hundreds of patients with nearly every type of chronic pain imaginable. On average, our patients experience an 84% reduction in pain, and more than 90% of our patients conclude therapy with a pain score of zero or near zero. By combining a highly refined care model with a novel FDA-cleared device known as Scrambler Therapy® we’re changing the way chronic pain is treated. Our patient-centered model uses this state of the art medical technology, which is non-invasive, non-drug based, safe and highly effective at significantly reducing, or completely eliminating, pain with lasting relief. This technology, along with a unique care and cost model, make our approach the most effective and appealing way to treat chronic pain.

Chronic pain—the most common of which is back pain and digestive pain—affects as many as one in four people. Pain plays a crucial role in the body as a clear sign that something is injured, diseased, or in need of extra care. However, when pain becomes chronic, many times the pain signals sent to the brain no longer correspond with any kind of dysfunction. The pain is literally all in the brain, and faulty neural wiring can ruin your life. When people are in constant pain, they will try anything: yoga, meditation, acupuncture, cannabis, and, of course, opioids. Sometimes these solutions work, sometimes they don't, but statistics show that chronic pain is a problem that's getting worse, not better. So what can we do? On this week's Yoga Talk Show, we will explore a new type of noninvasive, nondrug treatment for pain that involves electrical stimulation to rewire problematic neural connections, otherwise known as Scrambler Therapy®. ------------ Listen & Learn: Why 100 million Americans have chronic pain Why pain can be present with or without any underlying condition Why the threat-neural matrix complicates your pain Why all pain is in the brain, and the solution to all chronic pain is rewiring this mind-body neural fail ABOUT OUR GUEST Brendon is the co-founder and CEO of Radiant Pain Relief Centres in Oregon, where he uses an exclusive, FDA-cleared technology called Scrambler Therapy® as a safe and simple way to change the mind-body perception of pain.

Scrambler therapy is an exciting new advance in treating neuropathic pain. By scrambling the information injured nerves send to the brain, this new form of therapy reduces the amount of pain sensation patients experience, particularly those suffering from chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy. In this episode, Salahadin Abdi, Ph.D., M.D., explains the science behind this technique.

Currently, there are very few non-pharmaceutical pain management options for workers suffering from neuropathic injuries. What advancements have been made in treatment techniques for patients who are looking to move away from opioid-based treatment? In this episode of Workers Comp Matters, host Alan Pierce talks with Dr. Roberto Feliz about pain management and Scrambler Therapy. Roberto opens the interview by defining chronic pain and shares that the body maintaining localized inflammation within the tissue is how acute pain transforms into chronic pain. He states that the continued bombardment of pain signals to your spinal cord and central nervous system forces the neurons in your brain to change and form new neural connections. Roberto explains that Scrambler Therapy, a pain management technique that blocks pain signal transmission and provides non-pain information to the affected nerve fibers, aims to deceive the brain into reading the pain signals in a different way. He analyzes what types of pain respond well to this therapy style and what pain types, like degenerative arthritis, do not. Roberto closes the interview with a comparison of how accepting private insurance and workers’ comp services are of this new therapy and discusses the cost and frequency of treatment.
