The special structure of DEEP OSCILLATION® allows the creation of biologically effective oscillations in the treated tissue using electrostatic attraction and friction. In contrast to other therapies, these pleasant oscillations have a gentle and deep-acting effect on all tissue components to an 8 cm depth (through skin, connective tissue, subcutaneous fat, muscles, blood and lymph vessels).

Personal Profile

 

Alex Brooks Bsc. MRCOT

"I started my therapy journey when I qualified as an Occupational Therapist, in London. I spent several years working across diverse areas of both physical and mental health, within all sectors of health care (incl. NHS and private). I developed a passion for fostering relationships with people and guiding them through their recovery journey. I enjoy finding creative, unique and person-centred ways to help someone make improvements to their quality of life and achieve their individual goals.

My specialist area of interest is the treatment and management of oedema (incl. Lymphoedema, Lipo-Lymphoedema and Lipoedema). My practice does however also extend to incl. optimising skin care, wound and scar healing as well as looking to promote people's overall health and well-being. I work with a holistic approach, incorporating all aspects of people’s lives into their therapy. My aim is to tailor each treatment session to a person's specific needs, supporting them to achieve their individual goals both in the short and longer term."

How did you hear about DEEP OSCILLATION®? What prompted you to buy?

I had seen Deep Oscillation at the MLDUK Conference and attended many of the PhysioPod talks.

Also more recently, I was connecting with a fellow massage therapist (and good friend) Robyn Alston, who encouraged me that Deep Oscillation would be an ideal complement to my therapy services.

 

How do you find dealing with PhysioPod® UK Limited?

Excellent advice and support. Above and beyond help from Julie & Mary via text, email, and phone. Would happily recommend to others without hesitation.
