The Calmare MC-5A Pain Therapy System is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive medical device designed to treat chronic, neuropathic, and treatment-resistant pain without the use of drugs or surgery. Also known as Scrambler Therapy, this revolutionary technology offers a safe, opioid-free alternative for patients suffering from conditions like chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), failed back surgery syndrome, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), post-herpetic neuralgia, and other chronic pain syndromes.
Using advanced biophysical principles, the Calmare MC-5A works by transmitting low-voltage electrical signals through surface electrodes placed on the skin near the pain site. These signals mimic normal nerve impulses and are interpreted by the brain as "non-pain" information, effectively scrambling pain messages being sent by damaged or dysfunctional nerves. Over a typical 10-12 session treatment protocol, the brain begins to reprocess the incoming information, often resulting in significant and long-lasting pain relief.
Non-Invasive & Drug-Free: No needles, medications, or surgical interventions involved—ideal for patients seeking natural or integrative pain management options.
FDA-Cleared for pain therapy, including specific approval for treating neuropathic pain conditions.
Patient-Centered Therapy: Sessions are generally well tolerated, with most patients reporting a soothing or tingling sensation during treatment.
Rapid Onset of Relief: Many patients begin to experience pain reduction within the first few sessions.
Long-Term Results: For many, pain relief continues for weeks or months after completing a course of therapy.
Versatile Applications: Suitable for a wide range of chronic pain conditions, particularly those that have not responded to conventional therapies.

The Calmare MC-5A employs a patented technology that delivers surface electrical stimulation through five channels, creating 16 different waveform sequences. These waveforms "scramble" the pain signals and retrain the brain and nervous system to interpret pain sensations as non-painful. Unlike traditional TENS units, which mask pain, Calmare targets the root cause by modulating the nerve pathways involved in chronic pain signaling.
