Posted on 2017-08-07 by associate14 in Healthcare // 0 Comments

Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, 2017-Aug-07 — /EPR Network/ — PhysioPod® UK Ltd are delighted to join the Lipoedema UK Conference on Saturday, demonstrating the benefits of DEEP OSCILLATION® applied in the management of Lipoedema as self-treatment or via therapist (briefly mentioned in The Best Practice Document for Lipoedema, published by Wounds UK and in Practice Nurse), The Primary Care Nursing Review – PCNR, The Journal of Lymphoedema and MLDuk, The Journal.

Pre Liposuction
Since DEEP OSCILLATION possesses anti-oedema, lymph drainage, anti-fibrosis and detoxifying properties, it prepares the tissue for liposuction, makes liposuction more effective and durable and protects against adverse effects of the body sculptouring procedure.

Post Liposuction and Plastic Surgery

Post Liposuction swelling, bruising and pain can be relieved considerably faster. It can be used at a very early stage, the healing process is accelerated, scar quality is improved, local inflammation is inhibited .. Claire Tickle said the treatment was ‘Crucial in her recovery”

Self Treatment

A 20 minute treatment of DEEP OSCILLATION is gentle and non invasive and is very ‘soothing’ to Lipoedema legs, making them feel lighter and more mobile.

DEEP OSCILLATION as summarised in the words of a Lipoedema sufferer…

“We were given a demonstration of a Deep Oscillation unit and were so impressed that Mum decided to take the chance and invest in a personal unit for us to both use. We can’t begin to say how much of a difference it has made – to come home, use the unit for 20 minutes, and for it to take the heavy, fluidy, feeling out of our legs and arms and more importantly to relieve any pain. Thanks to the personal unit, we have been able to halve the number of MLD massages we go for. Although it seems so gentle when using it, the massage helps to move a lot of fluid out of limbs. We would have no hesitation in recommending the therapy to anyone, especially other sufferers of Lipoedema” Louise, United Kingdom.

About PhysioPod® UK Limited:
Winners in the 2016 Global Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Awards for Innovation with DEEP OSCILLATION and nominated in the Private Healthcare Awards 2017, PhysioPod® UK Ltd are in their 11th year of trading. Directed by Sisters, Julie Soroczyn and Mary Fickling, they exclusively supply the UK and Ireland the full range of products from PHYSIOMED ELEKTROMEDIZIN AG, a world-wide leading producer of high-quality equipment for traditional and innovative physical therapy in the fields of rehabilitation, sport and aesthetic medicine. Approved suppliers to the NHS and recommended suppliers of The Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists (AACP) they are also placed and respected, as suppliers within the UK’s elite sporting world. Aside from traditional treatment forms like electrotherapy, ultrasound, vacuum application, laser, shortwave, microwave, traction, cryotherapy, magnet and shockwave therapy, they also offer several innovative and clinically-tested therapy approaches, which include Magcell®, electrode-free electrotherapy and award-winning DEEP OSCILLATION®; an internationally patented therapeutic design which utilizes the forces of pulsed electrostatic attraction and friction to provoke oscillations, which act deeply on the tissues of the body; from the epidermis down through the conjunctive and adipose layers and into the muscles, supporting and intensifying manual lymphatic draining (MLD), sports and holistic massage with the added benefit of reducing pressure on the practitioners hands. Hernandez Tapanes et al (2010) were able to prove, by diagnostic ultrasound, penetration of the oscillations to an 8cm depth without any undue pressure being applied. Observed physiological effects of the therapy include, significant pain reduction, oedema resorption, fibrosis reduction, limited production of inflammatory mediators, especially during the treatment for chronic pain, a strengthening of the cutaneous tissues and stimulation of the wound healing process. It greatly benefits acute injury treatment and day one post surgical treatment and can be used over implanted pins and plates. Applied via vinyl gloves or applicators from Practitioner to Patient, handheld applicators also enable self-management, with patient’s continuous feedback of now feeling ‘in control’ of chronic conditions such as Lymphoedema and Lipoedema. Partners/supportive others can also be instructed in its application, bringing a viable treatment option into the home, improving patient quality of life. Complex cases can be treated effectively, including lymphoedema of the head and neck, breast fibrosis and genital oedema. Personal units are lightweight, battery operated and travel friendly. In addition to eight PubMed studies, DEEP OSCILLATION® has also been published in the Journal of Lymphoedema, The European Journal of Lymphology, and The Primary Care Nursing review. PhysioPod® UK Ltd are listed on Professor Timothy Watson’s ‘Electrotherapy On The Web’ website (although not an endorsement or recommendation) listed as providing a ‘professional service’. In 2016, PhysioPod® UK Ltd was delighted to add the expertise of Elaine MacNicol RGN Clinical Nurse Specialist to the team. DEEP OSCILLATION® is now ‘recommended’ by Dr Vodder Academy International and ‘The Wittlinger Lymphoedema Clinic’ in Austria.
