  • What does Physiotherm stand for?

    The well-being principle.
    This is how Physiotherm’s deep infrared warmth works: Physiotherm infrared cabins have special ceramic tubes filled with lava sand that radiate mostly only infrared C at 300 – 320 °C, with just a small proportion (about 3%) of infrared B radiation. First, the skin blood vessels in the back expand under exposure to heat radiation. The heat, absorbed by the blood and the lymph fluid, is transported to the deeper layers of tissue. Beginning from the spinal region, by way of the circulatory system the heat is then distributed inward, so that heat gradually penetrates the whole body. At a normal cabin temperature of about 30 – 38 °C, the body is easily able to dissipate excess heat to the environment. In this way, treatment puts no noticeable strain on the cardio-vascular system. This form of deep infrared warmth, which reinforces the body’s natural heat regulation mechanism, is very pleasant. The body is thus warmed thoroughly, “from inside out”. Escape everyday cares, relax, freed from stress, and replenish your energy reserves.

    The quality principle.
    Physiotherm infrared cabins are based on the patent registered by our founder, Luis Schwarzenberger. As inventors and global market leaders, we are particularly concerned with maintaining the highest possible level of quality as well as with flawless products and careful workmanship. It is, therefore, a matter of course that we do not entrust production of our patented heaters to anyone else. And when selecting materials, only the best is good enough. This means, for instance,that we use only domestic timber and solvent-free varnishes. At our factories in Thaur, Tyrol and Treuen, Saxony, we have implemented quality standards that seek their equal anywhere in the world. These standards serve as our customers’ guarantee of high quality, durable, custom-manufactured products – from space-saving compact cabins to expansive solutions for families, spas and premium hotels. We consistently apply the quality principle in the areas of employee training, customer care and after-sales service as well.

    The success principle.
    For years now, awareness of the need to take responsibility for one’s own health has been growing rapidly among broad segments of the population. People are prepared to invest in their health, and they expect serious advice. Since the company was founded more than 14 years ago, Physiotherm has established an excellent reputation. Competent advice, consistent research and continued development as well as premium quality are just some of the building blocks for our success. Experts claim that Physiotherm’s infrared technology is among the most efficient and, above all, most effective the world over. We thus have the responsibility of renewing our commitment daily. By virtue of the extraordinary properties and outstanding benefits, many today are enthusiastic and convinced about Physiotherm infrared cabinets:
    • more than 300,000 users
    • more than 30,000 private customers
    • more than 3,000 top hotels
    • more than 150 premium wellness centres and fitness institutes
    • more than 50 of the best spas and health centres.
    And Physiotherm is active at the international level: With branches currently in 10 countries, Physiotherm is exporting Austrian brand-name quality throughout the world. Because every cabin by Physiotherm is a quality product from Tyrol.

    The health principle.
    Physiotherm infrared cabins contribute in an essential way towards enhanced well-being and valuable, preventive healthcare benefits. Our low temperature infrared technology and patented heaters, filled with lava sand, provide a particularly gentle form of deep warmth. Even at 30 °C or above, the treatment renews vital energy and can even work wonders: from soothing back pain and relaxing tense muscles to positive effects on skin problems and allergies or support during planned weight-loss. Physiotherm infrared cabins improve blood circulation and supply to organs, muscles, connective tissue and skin. Metabolism is stimulated, pain-relieving chemical messengers are released and the immune system is fortified. Detoxification and cleansing of bodily wastes are reinforced by perspiration. These are just some of the effects of the gentle, deep warmth provided by Physiotherm, benefits that can help in treating a great number of ailments. Do you have any other questions for our Medical Science Department? Our physician will be glad to advise you, both before purchasing a Physiotherm infrared cabin as well as, of course, afterwards, so that you get optimum use of your cabin at home. With diseases of civilisation widespread today, those are very good reasons for choosing a more intelligent method of preventive healthcare.

    The innovation principle.
    The patented lava sand technology and the specially developed low temperature infrared technology are two important features at the core of our unique Physiotherm principle. The ceramic tubes, filled with very fine lava sand, generate an extremely pleasant kind of heat and stand out for their excellent benefits. Lava sand is an excellent material for storing heat. When used with the reflectors, designed precisely for the system, Physiotherm heaters provide an unusually even supply of heat to the back. In addition, low temperature infrared technology builds on the optimum balance between heat absorption, in the form of deep warmth, and easy dissipation of surplus heat to the surroundings. This is the only way to ensure natural regulation of body heat, a method that is particularly efficient and gentle. Physiotherm has, by the way, for more than 14 years been the only manufacturer in the world able to offer this unique technology that is so highly suited to the needs of the human body. And this in an appealing and functional design. Dedicated to the notion of evolution, we at Physiotherm continue to work on improvements and new products in our internal Research & Development and Medical Science Departments.

    The responsibility principle.
    In the face of this responsibility, particularly in the area of health, Physiotherm feels an obligation toward customers, employees and society at large. The notion of care, which is reflected in economic, ecological and social aspects at Physiotherm, underscores the notion of sustainabillity in our organisation. To put our care philosophy into practice, we have established a permanent medical department for providing advice to customers and for ensuring continued customer care even after purchasing a product.
