Most of the patients undergoing Scrambler Therapy travel to New Jersey from outside metropolitan New York City and often outside the U.S.

To assist with your travel arrangements, we assembled patient-recommended lodging below, which we hope will help to simplify your travel planning:

Calmare Therapy NJ is conveniently located just eight miles from New York City with quick access to Newark Liberty International Airport (Newark, New Jersey), LaGuardia International Airport (New York City) and JFK International Airport (New York City).

Public Transporation from NYC Port Authority Bus Terminal

Bus 191, 192 and 195 all go to the Passaic Ave stop on Route 3 in Clifton, NJ. The bus stop number is #26854. The Calmare NJ USA building is off the Route 3 ramp in the building with the name,“Tri County Endodontics.” The bus ride is about 40 minutes.

Scrambler Therapy NJ USA offers CareCredit as a payment option.

CareCredit helps you pay for out-of-pocket healthcare expenses to help manage medical, health and wellness expenses not covered by insurance.

This program also offers special financing options that you may not be able to get with other cards.

You can apply for CareCredit via printed applications available at the Calmare NJ USA clinic or click here for the quick application.

You will set up your CareCredit account independently and privately by working with the service directly.

Preparing for Your Scrambler Therapy

Before the end of the year, we will be welcoming many new patients to Scrambler Therapy here in New Jersey who are traveling here from nearby New Jersey to as far away as South America, Sweden, South Africa and Australia.

Patients generally treat for a minimum of 10 sessions, one per business day, lasting about 35 minutes, on average. Our goal is to make you feel as comfortable as possible, from your first visit to your last.

Steps to Prepare

Fill out your New Patient Forms in advance. Forward them to us by fax (973-772-2701) or scan and email to info@calmaretherapynj.com
Digitally sent or bring copies of lab and x-rays (EEG, MRI, CT scans, EMG) for our pre-treatment study).
Medication Usage At least one month prior to beginning treatment, reconfirm that our doctors are fully aware of all the current medications you are using. (Some medications can interfere with the brain’s pain receptor messaging.)
Refrain from using skin lotions or oils 24 hours before each treatment.
Dress in loose, comfortable clothing and bring some entertainment to occupy you during each treatment.
Consider keeping a journal about your experience and discuss how you feel each day during therapy.
Make hotel reservations well in advance. We provide a list of lodging options that have received high patient ratings.
Focus on nutrition and hydration. By fueling your body with hydration, you are setting a course for an optimal treatment outcome.
Find ways to help relax your mind and body. Traveling is challenging even when you feel great–it can be exhausting and painful when you are battling pain. Gather items of comfort–slippers, pillows, scented items and keep them in a handy during travel.
Plan to rest after therapy, particularly the first two weeks after treatment, when your body will require extra rest to recover and renew itself.
Don’t be nervous! The treatments are non-invasive and have no side effects.

Learn more about Metro New York City-based Scrambler Therapy NJ USA on these pages and then discuss your case directly with Certified Scrambler Therapy expert and Clinical Director, Dr. Jason Cooney, DC.

“Incredible, life changing and “miraculous” would be few words to describe the scramble therapy and more importantly how wonderful, caring and supportive Dr Jason Cooney is. Our son had severe nerve damage for many years and was bedridden for almost 8 months. We lost hope until I found Dr. Cooney.”

“Dr. Jason Cooney is absolutely incredible. I’ve been suffering from PHN and was desperate for any relief. He took the time to listen to my story and fully explain scrambler therapy and the plan he had to help me recover. Throughout the process he was kind, patient, super knowledgable and answered my 1 million questions. I’ve been feeling sooo much better and am so thankful I found Dr. Cooney!!!”

“This was my third time coming to Calmare Therapy and I was not disappointed. Dr. Jason is very hands on in his care and does not leave you to be treated by a tech. He also allowed me to fully take part my care plan. I highly recommend Calmare Therapy with Dr. Jason Cooney.”

“Dr. Cooney is one of the most sympathetic and knowledgeable providers I have seen for CRPS — a combination you don’t see often in healthcare! He genuinely cares about his patients, their success with Scrambler, and their quality of life.”

“We traveled from Quebec, Canada, to benefit from Dr. Cooney’s incredible expertise in Scrambler Therapy. My 11-year-old daughter arrived with pain 8/10, unable to walk without crutches and a bluish discoloration of the foot. After 10 treatments, we left with her pain at 0/10, no more crutches and her foot is no longer blue.”

“We are so grateful for Calmare NJ and Dr. Jason Cooney! A fall in school completely changed our lives and we are so thankful to be putting the pieces back together after the care received.”
