Having had an ephiany and deciding on a BIG PUSH to change my lifestyle/diet and step into 2012 as a much slimmer and healther being. I was really interested in this treatment and the advertised benefits, so jumped at the chance to have a session as a way of supporting my journey to a new me! So got my voucher and booked the deal.
I reviewed the site and scanned the web for reviews etc., so I was fully prepared for the session and comfortable on what I was about to embark on. I arrived and I was greeted by Suzanne, she was very nice, she explained the process, what to expect, benefit etc., and she answered ALL my questions and all the stupid ones - will it get very hot - doh! , I wasn't nervious but, if you were, Suzanne's knowledge/experience would set you at ease.
I was shown into a room, which was very subdued and calm with some relaxing music and scented candles, and was asked to strip down and put on the disposable panties provided. Suzanne then settled me into the DOME and the off we went - the heat was on! Suzanne settled me in and set it off and popped back after 5 mins just to check if I was ok and that the temperature was fine. She had kept it a little lower than norm (still enough to make me sweat - loads) as I mentioned that I was a little concerned about the level of heat as I didn't do well in hot temperatures and also it was my first time!
Once 15 mins was up I was asked to turn onto my back for the remainder of the session and again she asked I was fine and if I was happy for her to 'turn up the dial' - I was. The heat was a gradual so it wasn't a 'sudden' heat so it was comfortable and of course nearer the end it did get really hot, but it was always comfortable on the body - I had expected it might have been a bit of a stinging sensation.
When it had finished, Suzanne popped back gave me the 'de-briefing, telling me to get up in my own time and when ready get dressed, and drink lots of water - she kindly pours a big tumbler of water with slices of lemon in it and places it on the side for me. You're advised not to shower for 2 hours, as it cools down your temperature too quickly, but if you want too there is an ensuite where you can shower or just freshen up.
It was a great experience and I booked another 4 session on a current deal they had on that weekend. I had dinner with friends that evening, the dress I wore typically fits on the body, but it was loose! So for me this did exactly what it says on the tin!
Throughly recommend.

Do not waste your money. My friend and I weighed ourselves before we went for the treatment and on our return. We had both put on a pound each !! I did not expect to lose much after one treatment but did not expect to put on weight. The treatment itself involved lying in a dome sweating. Even if I had lost a bit and then put it back on the next day would have been acceptable but not to gain weight. Absolute rubbish.
Japanese Sauna
I am resistant to heat and have difficulty to sweat. Although going to gym and sauna, this method is very suitable for me, as I sweated not superficially but from a deep layer. I felt very light and refresh much better than a traditional sauna.
I have, after my first trial, bought another 4 sessions. I advise anyone to try it.
I love the Iyashi Dome. I've tried it a few times, I love the heat and find it very relaxing. The 30 minutes are over in no time and you come out feeling all healthy and skin feels great. Unfortunately, it's just a little on the expensive side without a voucher, otherwise I would want to go regularly.
Japanese Sauna
Easy to book, easy to get to inside a shop. A bit small though but clean facilities. I was explained its a deep cleansing for the body to get rid of toxins.
I would say i did sweat a lot and felt a bit better and relaxed. But i didnt lose any weight. So it just a feel good thing but not to lose any weight quickly.
