Lymphoedema of the breast-pauline
Pauline was introduced to DEEP OSCILLATION by her MLD Therapist and was impressed with the results being acheived. She made the decision to buy once she knew how easy the DEEP OSCILLATION® Personal SPORTS was to use...
"I have had the Deep Oscillation® personal sports unit for 3 months now and I can say with complete confidence I am delighted with it.
Since having the deep oscillation® unit my Lymphoedema has
improved greatly. I am able to treat myself (which is very empowering)
in the comfort of my own home at a time that suits me.
Before I had the unit I was having weekly manual treatments up at
the Lymphoedema clinic at my local hospital. Then I heard about a
private practitioner who used the Hivamat® 200, I went for several
treatments and was impressed by the benefits and saw a real improvement
of my Lymphoedema. The therapist informed me that there was a smaller
version of the machine she uses.
After purchasing the deep oscillation® personal sports unit and
using it for several months initially for an hour a day, sometimes in
two sessions, I noticed that it was helping to heal the scars that were
left by the breast preservation surgery, one of which is almost
unnoticeable now. My swelling has been kept at bay, and the pain I
suffer is reduced. I have also found my range of movement to be better;
hence I only have to use it every other day now.
As well as being able to treat myself I also have the option of my
partner joining in with my treatment which is very therapeutic and has
helped him feel involved.
The unit has a good clear display and has background illumination,
which is very helpful. It is very easy to use and has clear explanations
of each program with diagrams built into the unit, making it accessible
at all times.
I love the fact that this machine is portable and so I am able to
take it away with me when I go anywhere. It comes in a smart practical
case and is supplied with two sets of rechargeable batteries, a car
charger and a fast charger unit; I do however choose to use my own
charger as it will further prolong the life of the batteries"

Secondary Breast Lymphoedema: Marked Improvement By Third Day of Self-Treatment with Deep Oscillation
"I was diagnosed with Lymphodema of the right breast after breast cancer surgery and lymph node clearance from my right armpit 15 months ago. Consequently I had 6 sessions of deep oscillation therapy booked with my local hospital but was only able to have 2 of them due to COVID restrictions. As a result the swelling and hardness of the tissues in my breast became very painful despite using manual massage to try and get the lymph fluid moving..
