Deep Oscillation Therapy

Please feel free to call if you would like advice before booking an appointment. Any information shared is treated confidentially.

BetterU is delighted to offer Deep Oscillation Therapy (DOT) as an adjunct to standard massage and scar therapy.

Deep Oscillation is clinically proven, electrostatic field therapy which creates an intermittent, low frequency electrostatic field (5Hz – 250Hz). It is delivered through nitrile gloved hands or special applicators to provide a powerful yet gentle lymphatic movement with a minimal amount of external pressure making it a relaxing and comfortable therapy to receive. It works on acute and chronic pain, swelling, bruising, inflammation, scar tissue, fibrosis and wound healing. It may be used immediately after injury, pre surgery to prepare tissue and post-surgery (with signoff from the surgeon) to enhance the natural healing process and help promote a swift return to normal activity.

The therapy effect of DEEP OSCILLATION® takes place in the tissue itself and works through the entire depth of the tissue layers (skin, connective tissue, subcutaneous fat, muscles, blood and lymph vessels) permeating to a depth of 8cm. It is safe to use over pins/plates and prosthesis because no heat is generated and is safe in all age groups.
