Soaking MicroSilk® AirMasseur® Whirlpool Sensory Experience Clean and Comfortable Hydrotherapy and You Real Results

The MicroSilk^® Process

Ambient air is the fuel for the MicroSilk^® process. Air is drawn into the system through a venturi and dissolved into the water at elevated pressures. The microbubbles are then produced by crushing the released air bubbles as the elevated pressures are reduced through our patented process.

MicroSilk^® in the Bath

MicroSilk^® bubbles supersaturate the water with oxygen—so much so that the level of dissolved oxygen in the bath exceeds 13mg/L, which is up to 70% more than regular tap water.
As these microbubbles enter the bath, they form a dense cloud that envelops the body. The cloud of bubbles takes about a minute and a half to form and will quickly dissolve at the end of the bathing cycle.

The Microbubble

MicroSilk^® microbubbles are approximately 50 microns (.002”) in diameter→small enough to fit into the pores and carrying nature’s miracle cleanser, oxygen, to the body’s largest organ.
Oxygen plays an important role in improving a bather’s skin by:
- Enhancing the skin cells’ metabolic health
- Encouraging skin cell growth
- Improving the functioning of blood vessels
- Encouraging the release of toxins
- Stimulating the body's immune system to fight free radicals
- Killing anaerobic pathogens on contact

Heat Energy

Typical air bubbles rise to the surface of the water and burst, cooling down the bath and dissolving little oxygen in the water. MicroSilk^® microbubbles suspend in the water and implode—keeping heat energy in the water and maintaining a more consistent temperature in the bath.
The result is a more efficient increase in body temperature. This "sauna effect" increases body temperature and circulation, resulting in an accelerated release of toxins, improved immune system efficiency, stress relief, and deeper relaxation.

Typical Bubbles

MicroSilk^® Bubbles

Consistent Warmth

As the microbubbles are suspended in the water, the body is enveloped in them, allowing even warming of the skin and fewer “cool spots".
When the body is evenly and consistently warmed, muscles are able to reach a state of “loose pack” more quickly and efficiently for recuperation and rejuvenation.

The Importance of Anions

The dissolving microbubbles create anions at a rate exceeding 80,000 ions/cc. When anions are released in concentrations more than 50,000 ions/cc, they are shown to have therapeutic effects.
These therapeutic effects can include: neutralization of free radicals, improved serotonin levels, over-all feelings of well being, pain relief, calm, and deeper sleep.
Microbubbles are an emerging technology used in other industries from farming to environmental cleanup to medical applications. Jason International is the first to harness this technology for hydrotherapy to treat and improve the quality of the skin. For more information about Jason’s history of innovation and superior engineering, see Jason Innovation.

Developed with your skin in mind, MicroSilk^® delivers benefits unlike any other form of hydrotherapy. Natural and non-invasive, tiny microbubbles gently envelop the body’s largest organ to relieve irritation, encourage metabolism, fight free radicals, and promote wellness.
