Natural Health Practitioner John Garvey recently presented certificates on behalf of the Life – energies international to his newly qualified "Scenar" assistants. The certificates were presented to Irena Bean, Ester Burke, Anna Garvey, and Mary Rawlinson. After completing an intensive training course they have started working with John at his natural healthcare practice at Killinga, Leap. Scenar is a twenty-first century healing method based on oriental medicine. The device was made by Russian experts whose job it was to safeguard the health of the cosmonauts on the Mir space station.

The healing method was so successful, it was classified as a military secret for sixteen years. However, it was recently introduced to the western world where it was rapidly named the "Star Trek" device because it resembled the hand held implement used by Dr McCoy on the popular TV programme. The device uses a small 9v battery to stimulate the body with harmless electrical impulses of energy via skin nerves. It works in a similar way as shiatsu and other oriental health practices.

A natural and dynamic dialogue occurs between the brain, the affected areas of the body and the scenar. The device is used to promote pain relief and rapid healing. For further information about the Scenar Intensive Treatment Programme, contact 028 34055.
