Chronicle osteoarthrosis and SCENAR-therapy

1.Orthodox view on the problem of osteoarthrosis.

• Osteoarthrosis. (??) is a wide spread disease of
  the joints which affects more than 80 of our
  population.
• It occurs mainly in the knees, hip joints and
  hand joints.

3

• Osteoarthrosis affects first the cartilage of the
  joints. Joint consists of joint surfaces covered
  with cartilage tissue. The cartilage consists of
  connective tissue fibers incoherently located in
  a matrix. Both nutrition of the cartilage and
  reconstruction of the damaged fibers are carried
  out by means of the matrix.
• Osteoarthrosis is in progress when the balance
  between the formation of the new building
  material for the reconstruction of the cartilage
  tissue and the destruction is upset. The
  cartilage becomes drier, more brittle and due to
  the strain and weight its fibers easily split.

4

• The bone tissue under the cartilage follows its
  changes. Bone excrescences grow on the edge of
  the joint compensating the loss of the cartilage
  with increase of the bone surfaces. This is the
  reason for the deformation of the joints with
  arthrosis.

5
What is the manifestation of osteoarthrosis?

• Pain in the joint is the first syndrome.
• The reason for the severe pain as a rule is the
  reactive inflammation of the joint (so called
  synovitis) or the inflammation of surrounding
  tissues (muscles, tendons, follicles)
  periarthritis.
• With the inflammation of the surrounding tissues
  (tendons, follicles) pain is growing in execution
  of certain movements there are painful points in
  the joint zone, starting pains are definitive.

TREATMENT AND REHABILITATION

• Most popular methods are massage, physiotherapy,
  orthopedic adjusters (orthopedic shoes,
  supinators, knee pads, elastic roller etc.)
• The main remedy for osteoarthrosis used in the
  orthodox medicine is drug therapy
• anti-inflammatory agents
• external application of ointment
• intra-articular introduction of drugs kenalog,
  celeston etc. and use of food additives
  containing chondroitin sulfate.

2. Osteoarthritis from the viewpoint of
information medicine SCENAR therapy

• Homeostasis and adaptation the main postulates
  of holistic energo-information medicine.
• Homeostasis the uniformity of internal
  environment i.e. uniformity of vital indices
  and energy, this is an existence in harmony with
  oneself and everything that surrounds you.
  Organism always aims to maintain the homeostasis
  adapting to all external factors influencing the
  system (organism).

8
The process of adaptation could pass different
ways

• According to Selyes stress syndrome this is
  reaction to the stress, activation and training.
• According to Bellavitte these are means of
  self-correction, self-protection which depend on
  the level of energetics, reactivity, inherited
  and genetic reactive types.

9

• According to Davidovsi, Anohin, Kazancheev, Parin
  if some factors constantly and intensively affect
  the organism during the process of adaptation
  the system adapts to them in a particular way
  disease with a set of specific symptoms.

10

• Chronic osteoarthritis with the complex of
  syndromes and symptoms and what is more important
  and what we use in the . patients complaints
  and senses these are the external appearances
  of start and action of self-recovering
  homeostatic mechanisms directed to restoration of
  the balance. Disease (in our case
  osteoarthritis) is a disorder of the program
  control of the complex system organism.

11
Why with one patient the system adapts, recovers,
showing symptoms of osteoarthristis, with another
one we see the symptoms of bronchial asthma,
hypertension, diabetes etc?

• This depends on the genetic code, memory,
  inheritance etc.
• Each patient adapts in specific individual way
  typical for him and his parentage. This way our
  therapy should be concentrated not on the
  diagnosis zone, anatomic location of the disease,
  etiopathogenesis zones but on individual
  complaints and sensations of the patient.

12
3. Means of individualization of scenar therapy

• 3.1. Concentration on the complaint here and
  now
• 3.2. Continuous dialog during the whole procedure
  about the sensations of the patient and the work
  with him
• 3.3. Isolation of significant sensations those
  charged with energy which are accompanied with
  gestures, movements, sounds, emotions, power and
  are repeated during the procedure and the course
  of treatment.

13
3. Means of individualization of scenar therapy

• 3.4. Special intakes of SCENAR therapy procedures
  if such sensations are present.
• 3.5. Since organism is a hierarchic structure
  with levels of the physical body, homeostatic
  systems, emotions, mental and energetic levels
  the procedure should advance respectively these
  levels and what is more important there should
  be a relation between levels. Algorithms of zone
  selection, methods, principles of care.

14
3. Means of individualization of scenar therapy

• 3.6. Special techniques of selection of
  individual parameters of the influence
  frequency, damping, intensity, Z. Selection of
  influence pulse height during the course of
  SCENAR therapy.

4. Some results of treatment of patients with
osteoarthritis in the SCENAR center

• For the period 20002001 98 patients with
  different forms of osteoarthritis were treated in
  our center coxarthrosis 38 (39), gonarthritis
  - 25 (25), osteoarthritis of the shoulder joint
  - 8 (8), osteoarthritis of the small joints of
  hands and feet 5 (5). Patients with rheumatic
  arthritis were put in a separate group - 24 (23).

16

• The majority were women aged 4260, average
  duration of the disease 6 and more years, 50 of
  patients came to the center with long-term pain
  syndrome, with X-ray stage 2, with manifestation
  of synovitis and parasynovitis.

17

• All patients were divided into 2 groups of 20
  persons, without difference in sex, age, disease
  stage and functional lack of the joints. All
  patients received SCENAR therapy and ???, average
  duration of the course in the two groups was
  about 3 weeks (15 -18 manipulations).

18

• Patients came to the center with standard
  clinical and laboratory examinations. Following
  indices were used to assess the clinical
  characteristic of the joint syndrome pain at
  rest, starting pain, pain in the second half of
  the day and night, pain at palpation of joints,
  volume of joints, duration of joint stiffness.
  Joints function was assessed by the following
  parameters time for passing 30 m, time for going
  upstairs and downstairs, volume of movement in
  the joints.

19

• Patients of the I group received combined
  treatment (common zones in ???? 1 and during
  every manipulation they were additionally treated
  in ???? 0 local zones of announced complaints
  joints, local and symmetric, treated by means of
  wave, stripes etc.). Patients of the II group
  received only SCENAR therapy of common zones in
  ???? 1 without application of ???? 0 in the zone
  of announced complaint. Common zones were
  selected through analysis of symmetry on 3?6? and
  map ???????? ?? ?????.

20

• Effectiveness of the treatment was assessed just
  after the course, after 6 months and 1 year after
  the end of the treatment.
• During the course of treatment of the I group
  there were some increase of the pain syndrome and
  decrease of functional tests, patients of the II
  group did not show increase of the pain and
  decline of functional tests.

21

• Right after the course of treatment clinical
  indices of both groups were improved (decrease of
  the pain syndrome, improvement of functional
  tests). But in the I group clinical indices
  started to return in 4 6 months after the end
  of the course of treatment and slightly grew by
  the end of the year. In the second group there
  was also return of the pain syndrome but it
  occurred later and the percentage of such
  patients was lower than in the first group.

22

• Total effect (improvement of associated
  complaints and diseases, improvement of
  well-being and functional test) was credibly
  higher in the II group. In the I group more
  expressed effect was registered mainly in mild
  forms of synovitis and parasynovitis and in the
  II group good results were obtained in moderate
  forms of synovitis and its combination with
  parasynovitis.
