Ed Snoad Becomes the First Osteopath in Britain to Integrate Deep Oscillation Therapy Into Techniques

Internationally patented, DEEP OSCILLATION® therapy is a non-invasive, non-traumatic and very relaxing therapy which can be applied through light vinyl gloves or applicator and utilises all normal massage movements, it also integrates easily into osteopathic techniques.

The special structure of DEEP OSCILLATION® allows the creation of biologically effective oscillations in the treated tissue using electrostatic attraction and friction.

In contrast to other therapies, these pleasant oscillations have a gentle and deep-acting effect on all tissue components to an 8 cm depth (through skin, connective tissue, subcutaneous fat, muscles, blood and lymph vessels).

Ed Snoad provided this report to PhysioPod UK Limited, the Exclusive UK and Ireland distributor and NHS approved supplier.

"I first became aware of DEEP OSCILLATION® through a long term patient of mine.

He had been suffering with chronic, persistent low back pain caused by age related ‘wear and tear’. I would see him roughly every month, as he would get painful flare-ups which would keep on re-occurring, depending on what he was doing. My Osteopathic treatment improved things for 3-4 weeks each time, but certain things would always re-aggravate the pain and stiffness, and he would have to come back for more treatment. This pattern did not change for over a year, until one day he came to see me for a routine appointment and, to my surprise, told me that the discomfort in his low back was completely gone. Not only that, but the whole of his back felt much more relaxed and mobile. Things that he would do that would always re-aggravate the pain in the past, now no longer produced any pain at all. I wanted to know what he had done that had brought about such a transformation. He told me that he had heard about Deep Oscillation through a friend who had also had very good results with it. And so he had decided to give it a try.

After only 3 half-hour treatments, his back was completely pain-free! I was so impressed with his response that I decided to look into DEEP OSCILLATION® for myself, to find out more about what it involved and the conditions that it could be used to help treat. From reading though the medical research into the proven benefits of DEEP OSCILLATION® in treating musculo-skeletal ailments, and from talking with physical therapists who had used DEEP OSCILLATION® regularly for a number of years, I became more and more impressed with the range and depth of both acute and chronic conditions that could be treated - and the results that occurred. The ability to integrate DEEP OSCILLATION® into my normal Osteopathic treatment, rather than it having to be a separate stand-alone methodology, was the final key factor that convinced me this would a valuable addition to my practice.

Since I’ve started using Deep Oscillation therapy as part of my Osteopathic treatment, I have experienced rapid transformations of chronic and persistent musculo-skeletal problems in my patients, and I continue to be amazed and excited by the range of physical problems that can be successfully treated using it"
