In Japan, there is an age-old practice of detoxifying the body called “Suna Ryoho”, especially in the Southern region of Ibusuki. For over 300 years, the Japanese have been taking traditional hot sand
baths, burying themselves in the sand of certain natural hot springs. This form of therapy eliminates toxic build-up through sweat and cleanses the body. In these special places, heat is diffused by underground sources of hot water and the sun, warming this sand with its precious properties.
This natural source of far infrared radiation inspired Shogoro Uemura, who wondered how he could bring this tradition back to France in the simplest way possible through technology which masters the “Suna Ryoho” principle that the Japanese are so fond of. And so the company Iyashi Dôme was created in November 2004 in order to provide each and every one with access to beneficial treatments for the body and mind, thanks to infratherapy and the Iyashi Dôme Japanese sauna.
Rooted in Japanese High Technology, Iyashi Dôme infratherapy is a risk-free technique that is both gentle and powerful. It enables a distinct increase in body temperature which has an action on detox, slimming, sleep, skin rejuvenation, physical preparation, muscle recovery and relaxation.
“Stress, the frenzy of modern life, an imbalanced diet of fast and processed foods, pollution, pressure to perform, negative emotions, ever-present self-control, jet-lag… all these things take a toll on the human body that has to use more energy to cope.
Drawing inspiration from the traditional Japanese practice “Suna Ryoho”, I developed the Iyashi Dôme Japanese sauna to make deep and effective detox treatments available to a greater number of people…”
