Watch: A new pod promises a full-body cleanse with no soap or scrubbing required. Microbubbles and ultra fine bubbles remove dirt and cleanse the skin, no movement required.
Bubble tech: ‘Human Washing Machine’ uses tiny bubbles for full-body clean with no soap or scrubbing
A new pod promises a full-body cleanse with no soap or scrubbing required. Once seated, the roof comes down and water set to 100°F (38°C) starts filling the tub.

San Francisco researchers show that 150 kHz ultrasound shatters amyloid microclots linked to Long COVID.

Adding microbubbles and rtPA boosts the effect, suggesting a noninvasive therapy to restore blood flow and ease chronic symptoms.
