Small Asymmetry - An Essay (July 2004)

The skill of a S.C.E.N.A.R. therapist and the very essence of any S.C.E.N.A.R. procedure is in finding the smallest possible small asymmetry. The smaller the better. The most intensive, the most profound the better. It doesn’t matter if you are working in Subjective or Objective mode (Diag 0 or Diag 1 with 97.4, manual or SCAN mode on the AcuScen); you are still looking for the smallest small asymmetry

‘The small asymmetry’ is a cornerstone of S.C.E.N.A.R. therapy. The term is well known in the S.C.E.N.A.R. world, yet many S.C.E.N.A.R. users have difficulties in understanding and even pronouncing it. The nature of the phenomenon is also somewhat mystical.

The small asymmetry is defined as ‘the small area of the skin different from the rest of the skin by certain characteristics’. In Subjective mode the small asymmetry will reveal itself as a ‘stickiness’ on the skin, or a color change, or the difference in sensation or sound of the device, or concentration of pain in a small area. In Objective mode it will be the highest Initial Reaction, the highest ongoing reaction value (Dose*), or the highest final reaction value (‘0’). The highest ‘0’ will represent the smallest small asymmetry. This asymmetry would correspond to the ‘stickiest’, the most painful or numb, the reddest or the palest, the loudest or the quietest spot on the skin, if working in Subjective mode. In other words, the same small asymmetry can be found using different methods.

When you have found the smallest small asymmetry, your job is almost done. All you have to do to complete the treatment is to change the asymmetry. It can be done in Subjective mode, ‘brushing’ through the small asymmetry (in the direction that intensifies the small asymmetry the most) until it disappears or changes to the opposite. It can be done by applying the widest range of dynamic functions of the S.C.E.N.A.R. (variable Frequency + variable Depth or Damping) to the selected small asymmetry, which is often utilized in the Objective mode techniques (usually for 2 min). It can also be done by rotating the S.C.E.N.A.R. clockwise or counterclockwise on the small asymmetry, or by other means. Whatever you do, your objective is to bring dynamic change into the relative stability of the small asymmetry.

Small asymmetry is a representation of the dis-ease on the skin surface, an informational ‘gateway’ into the pathologic system. The dis-ease, as a slow adaptive reaction, is always the past with regards to the current body condition. Disturbing its stability, breaking its rigidity will help this part of the body catch up with the rest of the organism, bringing about healing. The change in the small asymmetry signifies the desired progressive change in the healing process.

‘The smallest small asymmetry’ reflects the pathology which at this particular moment is the body’s priority. That’s where the body’s attention is, that’s what it is trying to fix right now. Supplementing the body’s efforts versus redirecting them is, apparently, the key to the S.C.E.N.A.R. efficiency. And the small asymmetry is our guide in this process.

No other medical technology known to-date can reflect the dynamic nature of the well orchestrated symphony of the human system universe so precisely as the S.C.E.N.A.R.. Many effective medical practices and technologies are designed to influence areas on the human body, where the dysfunctional organ is typically represented. Yet only the S.C.E.N.A.R. can show and address the uniqueness of the particular health situation, as it is ‘here and now’. Synergistically blending its music with the body’s orchestra, the S.C.E.N.A.R. harmonizes function of the entire system. The small asymmetry ensures synchronization between the S.C.E.N.A.R. and the human system.

The mystery of the small asymmetry is yet to be understood. A tiny flower on an asphalt field, a little piece of a stinky cheese finalizing a rich dessert, that Mona Lisa smile, that little mole on the Marilyn Monroe’s cheek… Life is asymmetric, and maybe that what makes it so beautiful.
