Vacuum treadmill with full-spectrum infrared — the proven original, rebuilt for 2025
Bodyshape is an enclosed capsule treadmill that brings vacuum under-pressure and full-spectrum infrared warmth together over a smooth brushless cardio platform. The original in the range, it's a low-impact, joint-friendly way to exercise that feels warm, comfortable and genuinely enjoyable — ideal for beginners, older clients and anyone returning to movement. The 2025 rebuild adds a larger 15.6-inch display and a refreshed design while keeping the core technology that made it a studio staple.
Bodyshape sells something every gym struggles to deliver: a workout people actually look forward to. Seal a client into the capsule and vacuum under-pressure combines with full-spectrum infrared warmth to turn a steady, low-impact walk into a warm, enveloping experience — kind to the knees, hips and back, and ideal for beginners, older clients and anyone easing back into movement. It feels like a treat rather than a chore, and that's exactly what turns a curious first-timer into a booked, returning regular.
A dedicated vacuum pump lowers cabin pressure by as much as 30 mBar, giving every walk a distinctive, enveloping feel that keeps clients engaged.
Radiators emit IR-A, IR-B and IR-C wavelengths up to 1400 nm. Two 350W lamps deliver deep, comforting warmth that leaves the body feeling loose and limber.
A three-phase brushless motor drives the belt with speeds up to 12 km/h, incline to 10 degrees and a 50 cm belt width for quiet, controlled cardio.
Aromatherapy, ozone therapy, a collagen lamp, colour therapy and air ionisation round out each session and make it feel like a treat.
A large touchscreen runs six virtual running routes and media apps while giving one-touch control of infrared, speed, vacuum and aroma.
LED backlighting and ergonomic steel handles finish a capsule designed to look as considered as it performs.

Amazing products. The ice bath and chiller we use daily, and honestly one of the best life purchases we have ever made. So impressed we bought the outdoor sauna too. Great products and an amazing team.
Purchased a cold plunge back in 2024, one of the best purchases ever alongside my sauna. Climbing in first thing in the morning, or after a hard bike session, there really isn't much that compares to the boost you get from it.
From submitting our order through to post-installation communication, everything has been excellent and made the whole process run smoothly.
