We designed the iYU experience as a moment of absolute relaxation, where safety and well-being are paramount. The safety of the iYU system is guaranteed at all times.
iYU’s robotic arm was developed in Germany by Kuka, a world leader in robotics. The LBR Med, used by iYU, is the only collaborative arm specifically designed for medical applications, complying with strict safety standards (IEC 60601-1:2005).
During each iYU session, the security system constantly monitors the 28 sensors on the arm. At the slightest anomaly, the system immediately interrupts the session. In case of excessive pressure or another irregularity, the arm stops instantly, the table lowers, and the user can safely get up. This safety device is tested daily during the startup routine, ensuring that each day of use is marked by safety and well-being.
iYU data management complies with GDPR standards, the European regulation guaranteeing the highest standard of data protection worldwide.
iYU does not collect any personally identifiable data. The system only scans the user’s morphology in the form of a point cloud, gathers their session preferences, and tracks their interactions with the system anonymously. The goal is to tailor the experience in real-time for a fully personalized service.
No medical data is recorded. The user simply confirms their ability to participate in the session based on the provided contraindications. All this anonymous data is stored on our servers in France, in compliance with European legislation.
All our sessions comply with safety standards for body pressure thanks to three elements:
Expert practitioners design the protocols in accordance with authorized pressure limits.
The control software limits the pressures to those allowed by health standards.
The KUKA LBR Med robotic arm constantly monitors the pressure exerted, ensuring optimal safety throughout the session.
These three levels of control ensure safe and effective massages for an optimal well-being experience.
iYU follows the same contraindications as traditional massages, categorized into three levels based on international medical recommendations:
Black Flags: Require complete avoidance of massage
Maternity:
Orange Flags: Indicate significant risk and require careful evaluation
Yellow Flags: Left to individual discretion and may require special attention
It is always recommended to consult a healthcare professional for an appropriate assessment of your specific condition before receiving a massage, whether robotic or not.
Furthermore, the use of the system is prohibited for people under legal guardianship or curatorship, as well as minors under 16 years old.
AI is at the heart of the iYU experience, intervening at three key stages:
Most iYU protocols are available in 20, 35, and 45-minute formats. When creating your protocol menu, we help you define the ideal duration based on your needs and the experience you want to offer your clients. If you like a 20-minute protocol and want to extend it, contact us, and we’ll adapt it to a 35 or 45-minute format.
No, it’s not possible to keep your clothes on during an iYU massage. For optimal effectiveness, the massage is performed directly on bare skin, allowing for deep work on the muscles and fascia. The friction helps stretch the tissues, maximizing the benefits of the massage. iYU massages can be performed without oil for intense muscular work or with oil for more relaxing sessions, with deep pressure point work and gliding motions for maximum relaxation. If you’ve seen iYU demonstrations with clothes, these were public events or exhibitions. While this version is pleasant, it remains less effective than a massage on bare skin.
Direct contact with the skin is one of iYU’s unique features, with or without oil. The iYU Skin is the result of several years of research and development by Capsix, resulting in a soft, slightly adhesive texture that perfectly mimics the feel of human skin. This innovation allows for a deeply relaxing effect by stretching the muscular and subcutaneous tissues. The iYU Skin is made of medical-grade, hypoallergenic silicone, with a manufacturing process patented by Capsix. After over 15,000 massages performed, no allergic reactions to iYU Skin have been observed.
We offer three main families of massage protocols, each designed to meet specific wellness needs, with pressures and massage techniques tailored for an optimal experience:
Each protocol is carefully designed to provide a complete wellness experience, adapted to your specific needs.
Massages offer many scientifically proven benefits:
Ideally, a weekly session optimizes the benefits of massages, particularly for relieving tension, reducing stress, and improving sleep. Regularity helps maximize positive effects in the long term.
iYU fits perfectly into a variety of spaces, including spas, gyms, hotels, residences, offices, airports, lounges, and more. As a standalone solution, iYU offers an innovative and premium service that requires neither additional staff nor significant infrastructure. You can either integrate it as a complement to your existing wellness services or use it as an extra offering to attract new clients and generate additional revenue.
To install iYU, you only need a small dedicated space of 110 to 210 square feet (10 to 20 square meters)—no structural changes are necessary. The only technical requirements are a standard power outlet and a reliable Wi-Fi connection. iYU is designed to be compact and easily integrated into any environment.
iYU is designed for easy upkeep while ensuring optimal performance:
These measures guarantee that iYU consistently delivers high-quality massage experiences to your clients.
