Deep Oscillation is a clinically proven gentle yet powerful, electrostatic lymphatic drainage massage that permeates an 8 cm tissue depth. The impulses are delivered by the gloved hands of the therapist, significantly reducing pain, swelling, and inflammation, promoting mobility and wellbeing. Applicable in the early post-operative stage due to its gentle nature.

In contrast to externally applied, mechanical forms of therapy, (e.g., vibration), the therapy effect of DEEP OSCILLATION® takes place in the tissue itself. It works through the entire depth of the tissue layers (skin, connective tissue, subcutaneous fat, muscles, blood and lymph vessels) to a depth of 8 cm.

DEEP OSCILLATION® can be applied from the first day post-operatively, which means patients can rehabilitate in a far quicker timeframe than has previously been possible. Bruising, swelling, and pain reduce as the daily treatment works on shuffling and transporting the excess inflammatory matter (in evidence after surgery) to the lymph system for removal. Once the area is drained, it can regenerate

What happens in treatment?

For treatment, the client holds a titanium bar, the therapist wears thin vinyl gloves, and an electrode is attached to their arm. Both the electrode and the bar are connected to the machine. Alternatively, a special applicator can be used, which also enables post-operation self-treatment. Deep Oscillation can be applied in any external location: face (including over eyelids), breasts, arms, legs, buttocks, abdomen, etc.

About Sara Ball

MLD Therapies is a small private clinic, based in Tarring, that specialises in the advanced management of lymphoedema. As a practitioner, Sara originally qualified in 2005 as a sports therapist but also has a background in oncology massage and reflexology. She has more recently focused her skills on lymphatic drainage with the pioneering leaders at the Lymphoedema Training Academy. Through these links, she has found a field of healthcare where the local need for up-to-date specialist care outstrips provision. Our current patient base is made up of individuals with a variety of lymphoedema backgrounds, however, patients with a compromised lymphatic system, for example, post node removal, is a real area of interest and passion.

Sara's broad range of experiences within the therapy industry and having worked for more than 10 years at Park View Acupuncture and Chiropractic Clinic in Worthing have helped shape Sara's development. This has given her the desire, skills and experience to specialise in high-quality therapy approaches for clients across West Sussex and is the driving force behind the growth of MLD Therapies.
