Therapeutic Electrostatic Oscillation (TEO), also referred to as DOT, deep oscillation therapy.

This a non- invasive, non-thermal treatment method. It is used to reduce pain, swelling and inflammation while promoting healing. It creates a gentle pulsating electrostatic filed that interacts with tissue providing a deep massage effect. It can pe*****te 8-12cm deep.

Its electrostatic field causes a friction to lift and release tissue layers, creating a deep kneading effect rather than harsh pressure.

As a therapist I can either use my hands with vinyl gloves or an applicator. Patients report just a small sensation with a soothing feeling.

The TEO is so gentle it can be used immediately after surgery or injury.

Benefits
🔹Pain Reduction- calms nerve receptors for immediate relief. Effective in chronic and acute pain.
🔹Reduced swelling- Flushes out inflammatory byproducts and stubborn fluid build up.
🔹Fibrosis management- Helps break hard tissue and improve mobility after surgery or radiation.
🔹Muscle relaxation- helps reduce muscle spasm.

Conditions Treated
🔹Musculoskeletal injury and pain
🔹Post surgical: Bruising, swelling and scarring
🔹Chronic conditions: Arthritis, fibromyalgia
🔹Lymphatic Conditions: Lymphoedema, Lipoedema

TENS v TEO- They are very different!!

Tens- use electrical currents to stimulate nerves and block pain signals.

TEO- uses electrostatic fields to create mechanical deep tissue vibration.

A few interesting facts about the Lymphatic System.

The lymphatic system is vital, extensive network of vessels, nodes and organs. It acts the body’s main drainage to remove waste and filter harmful substances from lymph fluid. It absorbs fat from the digestive system and returns excess fluid to the bloodstream, preventing tissue swelling.

Symptoms can vary from external and internal. Externally we can see swelling around the face and neck. Internally symptoms can a feeling of fluid stuck, ear pain and feeling ‘stuffy’.

Skin plays a huge role in those with a compromised system.

Skin care is a must!
🔹Hydration
🔹Clean
🔹Moisturise
🔹Protect

Skin should be moisturised daily and checked for cuts and scratches. Not just around the affected area, cellulitis can appear anywhere on the body and from any cut on the body.

Lipoedema

An undiagnosed condition that mainly affect women. It is believed 10% of women worldwide are affected but due to poor diagnosis it’s hard to have precise numbers.

It’s frequently mistaken for obesity or lymphoedema. Lipoedema involves disproportionate fat accumulation, pain, tenderness and easy bruising.

Lymphoedema can develop at any stage, months, years, even decades after surgery or cancer treatment.

It’s good to be aware of any swelling or heaviness. Treating lymphoedema early can make a huge difference in long term management and care.

Look for skin changes, tightness, heaviness, feeling full.

If in doubt seek professional help.
