The interconnection between skin quality and body movement has led i-Tech Industries to create the i-Boost concept.
Based on a scientific approach to wellness and using advanced tech, i-Boost offers bespoke treatments for individual needs by combining i-Tech’s highly effective icoone and icoone Booster devices.
“Just a few sessions on both devices enable users to achieve seven wellness goals,” explains i-Tech Industries’ GM, Luca Gualdrini. “These include remodelling; anti cellulite; tonification; drainage; posture and muscular flexibility; stretching and relaxation; and coordination.
“icoone and icoone Booster are revolutionary patented devices that work together to go below the surface of the skin, offering a total body and mind treatment.”
How it works Based on revolutionary Roboderm technology, icoone treats the skin by regenerating connective tissue using 21,600 microstimulations a minute. This is combined with laser and LED light sources, guaranteeing results that remodel the body’s silhouette and accelerate skin regeneration.
The icoone Booster activates 95 per cent of the body’s muscles through exercise on an Elispheric platform, improving posture and balance by increasing muscle tone and flexibility, while burning calories as it rotates, slopes and vibrates.
The process stimulates proprioception and works on the back, improving posture and activating even the smallest and deepest muscles around the spinal column.
The new full-body i-Boost has been designed as a dual-treatment concept for spa settings. Customers can experience the icoone body treatment in one room, then move to another for the full-body icoone Booster treatment.
Gualdrini says this customised approach delivers excellent results in a short amount of time. Treatment protocols are flexible for customer needs and time availability, and can include express and intensive programmes. He adds: “The reliability and effectiveness of the icoone and icoone Booster’s technologies is the main advantage for operators, as they can rely on a solid scientific foundation that can achieve the best results for their clients. This builds customer loyalty and helps increase and boost revenue for operators.”
Proven results Claudia van der Lugt MD, owner and developer of Alizonne Therapy clinics in The Netherlands, says the icoone and icoone Booster combination has attracted more clients to her clinics. She says: “The Alizonne Therapy clinics offer treatments focused on contour shaping and weight correction, using icoone for mechanical lymphatic drainage and skin tightening – particularly the Multi Micro Alveolar Stimulation, in combination with LED and laser which contributes to an overall regeneration effect on deeper tissues.
“We combined icoone with icoone Booster to extend our treatment focus on full body vitality and wellbeing, together with individual food plans devised under medical supervision.
“Thanks to the i-Boost concept we’ve attracted a new client group – mainly high-enders – who appreciate time saving and effective, personalised training sessions to bring their body and mind awareness to the highest level,” she says.
Support services “Operators looking to incorporate the i-Boost concept into their treatment menu can be assured that i-Tech will be with them every step of the way, to help them achieve success,” says Gualdrini.
“We offer ongoing support and training, directly or through local distributors, on how to effectively use the devices, with business coaching and marketing support to ensure their success. Master trainers offer technical and scientific training, and operators are also given advice on treatment protocols, collecting meaningful data and scientific updates.”
