A Milestone Event for the Lipoedema Community

Lipoedema affects up to 1 in 10 women, yet most wait years for an accurate diagnosis, often facing misdiagnosis and misunderstanding. This conference is a vital step forward. It is designed for everyone affected by the condition: healthcare professionals seeking to better identify and treat lipoedema, women and families living with it who deserve answers and support, and allied health professionals championing better care.

Clinically led by Prof. (PD) Dr. med. Mojtaba Ghods, a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon, the agenda is packed with expert insights. Attendees can expect:

  • A presentation of the landmark LipLeg Study by Prof. Ghods and his team.
  • Surgeon Case Studies and Q&A sessions with renowned European surgeons.
  • Expert talks on metabolic health, GLP-1-based nutrition, and hormonal health by Nutritional Therapist Virginia Ziulu.
  • Discussions on the psychological impact of body image and chronic conditions by Psychological Therapist Louise George.
  • Contributions from Susie Birney (Executive Director of the Irish Coalition for People Living with Obesity), international patient advocacy groups, MLD therapists, and Lipoedema UK Board Members.

 

Transforming Lipoedema Care with DEEP OSCILLATION®

As the exclusive UK and Ireland distributors of DEEP OSCILLATION® therapy, PhysioPod will be there to connect with attendees and share how our technology can dramatically improve daily quality of life.

Lipoedema is a chronic, progressive connective and adipose tissue disorder characterised by a symmetrical build-up of abnormal fat that is highly resistant to traditional diet and exercise. Sufferers often deal with heavy limbs, a "cuffing" effect at the ankles or wrists, nodular "pebbly" skin, easy bruising, and chronic pain or tenderness.

DEEP OSCILLATION® offers a biologically effective, non-invasive solution. Unlike other therapies, it creates gentle electrostatic oscillations that penetrate up to 8 cm deep through the skin, connective tissue, subcutaneous fat, muscles, and lymph vessels. This clinically proven therapy provides daily conservative relief by:

  • Significantly reducing pain, heaviness, and swelling (orthostatic oedema).
  • Breaking down fibrosis and improving tissue quality.
  • Promoting lymphatic drainage and reducing local inflammation.

 

Unmatched Support for Pre- and Post-Liposuction

For those opting for surgical intervention, DEEP OSCILLATION® is an invaluable tool. Leading specialists, including Consultant Plastic Surgeon Mr. Vasu Karri, strongly recommend it for pre-lipoedema liposuction (especially in Stage 3 and selected Stage 2 patients) because it softens the fibrotic tissue, resulting in less bleeding, fewer complications, and a quicker recovery. Post-operatively, it can be safely applied from day one to accelerate wound healing, improve scar quality, and minimise bruising and swelling.

 

Take Control at Home: The Personal Basic Unit

We invite you to our stand to discover the DEEP OSCILLATION® Personal Basic. This clinical-strength, battery-operated, portable device empowers you to manage your symptoms independently at home. Whether you choose to buy or hire a unit, PhysioPod provides exceptional bespoke aftercare, including customized lipoedema therapy cards and a one-to-one Zoom setup session with Julie to ensure complete confidence in your self-treatment.

Empowering MLD Therapists: The DEEP OSCILLATION® Personal Pro
 
With MLD therapists taking the stage to discuss symptom management and post-surgical care, we warmly invite attending professionals to visit our stand and discover the DEEP OSCILLATION® Personal Pro.
This device allows therapists to deliver pleasant, deep-acting oscillations directly through hygienic, vinyl-gloved hands while utilising normal manual massage movements. A key new feature of the Pro version is that it allows practitioners to individually set the frequency, duty cycle, and duration of the therapy, ensuring the deep oscillation is adjusted exactly to the desired treatment. Its handy size and powerful lithium-ion battery guarantee flexible use, whether you are treating patients in the clinic or on the road

 

We cannot wait to meet you in Cork for a day of networking, learning, and support as we work together to change the landscape of lipoedema care.
