A central element of the programme: detoxifying fasting after the Buchinger method — medically supervised, clearly structured and deliberately gentle. In place of solid food comes a precise fasting rhythm of vegetable broths, light soups, freshly pressed juices, herbal teas and water. Not "nothing," but the right thing. At the right time. With attention and quiet. A reduction that doesn't harden, but opens. And becomes surprisingly clear.

In the medical history and examination, your current state of health and your medical background are carefully gathered. Together we clarify your personal goals and derive the appropriate measures from them — a sound, clear foundation for tangible relief and lasting well-being.

Bioimpedance analysis evaluates your body composition. What is your water, muscle and body fat percentage? Particularly for fasters and those eating "Schlanke Tanne," a measurement at the beginning and end of the stay is valuable — it lets us see clearly how your weight loss is composed.

The precious Königsöl ("King's Oil") with more than 30 herbs and medicinal plants is intensively massaged in.
