Internationally patented DEEP OSCILLATION® which will be demonstrated at the event.  It is non-invasive and non traumatic and is applied through vinyl gloved hands or applicators.  It permeates a depth of 8cm, with minimal pressure, making it the perfect treatment in the acute injury stage where normal sports massage is contraindicated.  DEEP OSCILLATION® is clinically proven to reduce pain, swelling and bruising, with smoother resultant scar tissue.  Early treatment equals an earlier return to the game.

Michael Schleissling of Physiomed, will discuss the CON-TREX® system with visitors to the stand. CON-TREX® modules are used for biomechanical testing, training and therapy machines for rehabilitation, sport and research. They work in isokinetic, isometric and isotonic movement modes as well as with continuous passive motion (CPM), freely definable position profiles and bio-feedback.
