The problem of determining the radiation reaction force experienced by a scalar charge moving in flat spacetime is investigated. A consistent renormalization procedure is used, which exploits the Poincar\'e invariance of the theory. Radiative parts of Noether quantities carried by massive scalar field are extracted. Energy-momentum and angular momentum balance equations yield Harish-Chandra equation of motion of radiating charge under the influence of an external force. This equation includes effect of particle's own field. The self force produces a time-changing inertial mass.
