About the Course

This course explores the principles of deep oscillation therapy and how it's applied in post-breast cancer recovery. Through a 29-minute video, it covers what DOT is primarily used for, how it works, how it's used after surgery, and how long sessions typically run. Two research readings look at deep oscillation in patients with secondary lymphedema after breast cancer, including its effect on breast tissue, pain and quality of life.

The Principles

What deep oscillation therapy is primarily used for, how it works, and the tissue response it's associated with.

Post-Surgical Recovery

How DOT is used after breast cancer surgery, which symptoms it's applied to, and how long sessions typically run.

The Research

Two readings on deep oscillation in secondary lymphedema after breast cancer: one on breast tissue and pain, and one comparing quality of life with standard lymph equipment.
