About Us

Scrambler Therapy NJ USA is a specialized pain treatment center exclusively focused on FDA-cleared Scrambler Therapy—a non-invasive, drug-free approach designed to reduce or eliminate treatment-resistant chronic nerve pain.

For many, traditional medication and pain management do not provide sustained pain relief.

It is essential to offer another option to these neuropathy warriors.

This FDA-cleared pain therapy has no side effects, is medication-free and safe for children, adults and seniors.

Scrambler Pain Management Technology

When someone is injured, the brain sets up a process to heal the injury. For example, cells carry away dead tissue or it increases blood flow to the damaged area. Eventually, the brain realizes the injury has healed and it cuts off the pain message.

But for some, the brain never sends that pivotal message saying, “There’s no more injury here, so you can stop the pain signal.” 

Patient-2-Patient Program

Now you can get firsthand information about what scrambler therapy is really like directly from other patients just like you.

If you are considering undergoing our treatment, we will put you in touch with one of our patient volunteers who was previously treated at Calmare Therapy NJ for the same or a similar medical condition.

From patients seeking RSD treatments, lessening chronic pain after chemotherapy, Shingles (PHN) treatment or therapy for pain after surgery, scrambler therapy provides a drug-free pain solution without any debilitating side effects.

Communicating by phone, email or other social media resource, you can talk about your concerns, ask questions, get informed.  

It’s that simple. More than 80 percent of the patients we have treated are pain-free or have reduced the depth of pain significantly and improved their daily quality of life. Now these patients want to “pay-it-forward.”

Please note that our P2P volunteers are not medical professionals and cannot offer any medical advice, recommendations or opinions.

Scrambler Booster Treatments

For patients with medical conditions appropriate to undergo this pain mitigation protocol, the standard treatment protocol is one treatment daily for two weeks, with a weekend off after treatment  number five to rest.

Most of the time, each treatment lasts about 35 minutes, but every patient is unique.

Depending on the severity of the original condition and the length of time the patient has been experiencing chronic pain, periodic booster treatments may be required to combat any return of pain.

Keep in mind, many patients never need further therapy, but in more advanced stages of prolonged or severe neuropathy, a single or series of boosters can be extremely useful against an elevation in pain.
