Let's take five minutes to learn more about this unique therapy which will help you decide if adding Deep Oscillation could help you double the impact of your work (non-invasively), attract more clients and achieve better outcomes. What do you have to lose?
Biologically effective, intermittent, electrostatic impulses are delivered via the therapist’s vinyl-gloved hands (the vinyl acts as the medium for the therapy to flow) or a vinyl applicator/applicators.
Because little to no pressure is required to apply the therapy, the therapist’s hands are protected from the usual demands placed upon them when providing deep tissue massage, yet the effect is still able to permeate an eight-centimetre depth.
Application
Trapped excess residual metabolic matter following injury or surgery is broken down and pumped to the lymphatic system for removal, enhancing the speed of natural physiological healing processes. Deep Oscillation® promotes more effective lymphatic drainage, quickly improving tissue quality.
Non-invasive and non-traumatic
The resonant vibrations emitted by DEEP OSCILLATION® are non-invasive and non-traumatic. Patients love the subtle tingling sensation, and it is also enjoyed by therapists, who benefit from their own hands receiving treatment whilst delivering it.
Because of its gentle application, it is a unique and ‘unrivalled’ treatment for acute injury, where deeper therapeutic massage would normally be contraindicated. This means that Deep Oscillation® can help boost the rehabilitation process, which accounts for its growing popularity in the world of elite sports. It can be very effective in early post-operative care in reducing any resultant scar tissue volume and rugged texture, swelling and bruising, and even, in most cases, lessening pain medication requirements.
With chronic conditions, including for example Secondary Lymphoedema of the head and neck, breast, or genital oedema, where other therapies have struggled to make an impact, Deep Oscillation® has been found to make a really positive difference. Many are managing at home with a device which they can also take abroad.
Where there is hardened scar tissue and/or fibrosis, the treatment works quickly to break down problem areas – softening of fibrotic breast tissue in as few as 20 minutes has been reported (see physiopod. co.uk references).
Deep Oscillation has been proven to be effective for “Prevention of fibrotic remodelling processes, reduction of fibrosis” (Schönfelder, G and Berg, D 1991; Jahr, S and Schoppe, B Reisshauer, A 2008; Gasbarro, V et al. 2006; Gao Y C et al. 2015).
Clinical Effects
Clinically proven benefits (see physiopod.co.uk references) include: significant pain reduction, anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic, detoxing, oedema and haematoma-reducing effects, and promoting of the wound healing process. Unlike other treatments, Deep Oscillation® can be safely applied over metal pins and plates, prosthetics and breast implants. It can be used safely over the eyes and is frequently employed in anti-aging and address dark circles under the eyes, swollen eyelids, as well as cellulite in the lower limbs (proven improvement in 80% of grade I and II cellulite cases [Korkina et al. 2007]).
It is becoming the therapy most asked for pre and post following Lipoedema (Lipalgia) liposuction, which is a chronic condition that causes an abnormal accumulation of fat in specific areas of the body.
THE SCIENCE behind Deep Oscillation®
Training
Training is completed via Zoom, one-to-one with Managing Director of PhysioPod UK Julie Soroczyn. Julie is the person responsible for bringing Deep Oscillation® to the UK and Ireland from Germany in 2006. Pre-programmed conditions in the medical device units, the Deep Oscillation Personal Pro and the Deep Oscillation Personal Basic allow for ease of use and an audible sound indicates the end of the treatment. In addition, the Pro version houses an individual option for therapists to create their own programmes. PhysioPod are always on hand for any questions and queries, no matter how small, via email or phone.
