Scrambler Therapy was invented by Giuseppe Marineo, a biophysicist at the University of Rome Tor Vergata in Italy. Marieno posited that interrupting the path of nociceptive signals, which are sent to the spinal cord and brain, could provide relief from the sensation of pain caused by chronic neuropathic issues.
This led to the development of the MC-5A FDA 510 (K) device, also known as Calmare, an amazing piece of technology that demonstrates Giuseppe Marineo’s theory was correct. Scrambler Therapy has been approved by the FDA and, according to the New England Journal of Medicine, has a proven success rate of approximately 90%.*
South Florida Scrambler Therapy is the first location in South Florida, the only one in Broward and Dade County, and one of the few in the United States to offer this machine and its benefits to patients of all ages suffering from neuropathy and other painful conditions. Our team of doctors is trained to understand how the technology works and is certified to offer treatment safely and effectively.
After your consultation at South Florida Scrambler Therapy, you’ll begin an initial round of treatment. During your treatment, a certified practitioner will apply electrodes to the appropriate areas. The electrode mapping is totally individual to each patient and may be changed or altered each visit. Scrambler Therapy does not cause any pain—you may experience sensations such as pinching, prickles, vibration, or pulsing.
Scrambler Therapy tends to take 10 initial visits over the 2 weeks. Some patients may receive additional treatments based on their severity and the number of areas being treated. Your appointments will last around an hour, and sessions take between 45 - 60 minutes. Your doctor will monitor your progress as you progress and adjust treatment as necessary to ensure optimal results. At the end of your treatment plan, we may recommend additional sessions depending on your progress.
Once Scrambler Therapy has caused your pain to subside, you can potentially experience months, or even years, of relief from chronic pain. Periodic booster treatments may be recommended (3-5 sessions) to extend the effectiveness of the therapy and improve the delivery of non-pain signals.
While Scrambler Therapy is non-invasive and safe for most, it nmay not be appropriate for patients with:
Because Scrambler Therapy works by retraining the nervous system, certain nerve-blocking medications can slow down or interfere with the treatment's effectiveness.
Important: Never stop or change your medication without your doctor’s approval. We will coordinate with your prescribing physician to ensure the best treatment window.
Note: Being on these medications does not automatically disqualify you as a Scrambler Therapy candidate; it's best to schedule your initial consultation for a clinical review.

I am a medical professional who Came to Dr Markson for scrambler therapy for 6 years of nerve pain in my right posterior rib cage from an accident. He was very transparent on the procedure and as honest as they come. I have some improvement for the first time in 6 years that even John’s Hopkins couldn’t improve. Dr Markson were as nice and accommodating as you would hope for.. Now we are at the end of initial therapy I amm feeling optimistic for the first time in a long time.
Dr. Markson and his team are so kind and helpful! After a week of Scrambler Therapy, I’m seeing major improvements to the nerve pain I was left with after a double spinal fusion. After trying so many different things, it’s such a relief to have found a non-invasive treatment that works! I’m excited to see continued success as I do more sessions. I’m so grateful to the South Florida Scrambler Therapy team.
