Water is life! It's a natural cure that keeps you healthy and gives you strength. This was recognised more than 150 years ago by the priest Sebastian Kneipp. The change between cold and warm water played a major role for him.
Bathing in hot and cold baths does wonders for your health. Start with the 38°C hot water grotto (approx. 5 minutes) and refresh your body afterwards for 10-20 seconds in the 18°C cold water grotto. Ideally, this procedure should be repeated twice.
This will stimulate your circulation, accelerate your metabolism, improve the supply of energy to your cells and remove waste products faster. As a result, your well-being will increase dramatically and your body awareness will improve. In addition to this, your body's defences will increase strengthening you and your immune system.
The Aroma Steam Room offers a very special fragrant experience. In contrast to the sauna, here you will enjoy an atmosphere of humid warmth instead of dry heat while wearing swimwear. At a temperature of 43°C, with a humidity of 100%, you will be able to relax completely and get away from it all.
Here you will once again be able to fill your lungs with air. Taking slow, deep breaths in the steam of the natural brine will do wonders for your airways.
In the 28°C to 30°C brine inhalation room, natural brine trickles through blackthorn twigs creating a fine salty mist in the air. Natural minerals and also released. The natural effects of the brine develop when inhaled cleansing the mucous membranes. The steam with its salt content has an anti-inflammatory effect and dissolves mucus. More steam can be produced in the room by simply pressing a button.
Sittings of 10-20 minutes produce the best results. A cold shower to finish off has a wonderful effect.
