Does Dr. Reiss use any tools or equipment?

(back to top) The doctor uses only her hands for all Osteopathic treatments – occasionally assisted by a “Fulford Percussor.” This is a hand-held variable-speed vibrating paddle, developed by her mentor Robert Fulford, D.O., that is used to gently break through and release deep, tough restrictions. Dr. Reiss achieves this, much in the same way Ella Fitzgerald could vibrate a glass into shattering by singing the right note, by holding the paddle lightly against the skin at a specific location after selecting the speed to match the body tissue’s vibrational frequency. It is very soothing; for our child patients it is called the “tickle machine.
