DEEP OSCILLATION® highly praised by the physiotherapist of the Russian women's national handball team

Evgeny Melnikov, doctor of the Russian women’s Handball National Team and of the women’s Handball Club “Zvezda” (Russian Super league), says: “We regularly and purposeful use medical devices from the PHYSIOMED product range. Compactness, simplicity in operation, reliability, longevity and service quality are the main criteria for our choice. The received results are impressive! The main area of use is upper and lower limb injuries, as a result of physical overloads or mechanical trauma. We are convinced that the therapy with HIVAMAT® 200 and DEEP OSCILLATION® PERSONAL is excellent as prevention measure too, due to the fact that injuries of the locomotor system do not appear “out of nothing”. Many years of experience in sportive medicine have made me a huge fan of these devices. I can’t imagine my daily work without the usage of those.”
Handball player Irina Poltoratskaya – 2 times World Champion and winner of 2006 World Cup says: “It’s no secret, that professional athletes are people with a whole range of chronic health problems. The application of medical instruments made by PHYSIOMED, especially the DEEP OSCILLATION® method, both during the training and competition phases, allows a speedy and effective liquidation of acute conditions in various illnesses. It promotes a quick physical restoration. This is extremely important nowadays, when the list of prohibited substances grows constantly, but the amount of injuries and illnesses, unfortunately, stays the same!”

...On the basis of these remarks we conducted a clinical and instrumental study in order to check its efficacy in treating lymphedema of the limbs. From May to December 2005, 20 patients affected by lymphedema of the limbs underwent HIVAMAT® 200 treatment wearing II class compression garments.
Results: The results obtained in 20 patients confirmed that this method can play an important role in the treatment of such a complex disease. We achieved a remarkably significant reduction in the circumference of the limbs and in the subcutis thickness.
Conclusion: The advantage of HIVAMAT 200 lies in the combination of electricity and several manual massage techniques which improve the treatment quality and efficacy. Moreover, due to its potential for self-treatment, patients can undergo treatment at home.

“The Hivamat is somewhat more effective in improving blood flow than some of the other traditional modalities. It is especially helpful for relieving oedema or swelling. It also aids in stimulating stagnant chronic healing processes. Used for breast cancer surgery aftercare it works wonderfully because it also increases lymph drainage, another huge benefit of this modality. It is also useful after massage therapy using a low frequency of 20Hz, it further drains the area of toxins and all of the waste that you kind of stir up with massage, so it’s a compliment to massage therapy”
