The process for guests from Balderschwang
Before you set off from Balderschwang, it's worth looking at how it works: the session itself takes just three minutes, with changing, a briefing and a short rest period around it. On site we explain every step in person – no one steps into the chamber unprepared.
Session lasting 3 minutes of dry cold at -110°C
The difference? An extra boost through whole-body cryotherapy with eddy-current cooling (Cyclon)!!
The cold penetrates about 1mm into the skin and stimulates the nerve endings – including the vagus nerve, which runs along the cervical spine, is positively stimulated by the cold
The stimulus on the skin travels to the brain and can trigger the positive effects
Dry cold in general triggers the release of adrenaline and the happiness hormone dopamine, as well as corticoids, for regeneration
Blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol and triglycerides can gradually normalize
Even after the very first session you feel better, more at ease – a true mood booster. Already inside the cold chamber you can sense something happening in your body, and afterwards you feel reborn – an indescribable tingling on the skin, a feeling of warmth and a wonderful sense of relaxation follow
Focus: Work & Physical Strain
Trades, care work, farming, production, shift work: many people in Oberallgäu district work physically – or spend the day sitting at a desk in a forced posture. Both leave their mark on muscles and joints. Whole-body cryotherapy provides a short, highly effective recovery impulse that fits easily into your evening without much time investment. From Balderschwang it's only around 70 minutes – including changing and the session, you're done in about 30 minutes.

Practical tips for Balderschwang
Guests travelling from Balderschwang usually schedule two fixed appointments a week – often Tuesday and Friday. This rhythm has proven itself: enough stimulus for adaptation, enough spacing for recovery. In intense phases (competition, training camps, acute complaints), three to four sessions a week are also possible.
Whether it's a heatwave or snowfall in Oberallgäu district: the chamber is a constant -110 °C. Especially on hot summer days, guests from Balderschwang find the three minutes particularly pleasant.
Ice bath, cold shower or cold chamber? Water conducts heat roughly 25 times faster than air – an ice bath at 4 °C therefore feels harsher than -110 °C dry air. The key difference for guests from Balderschwang: in the chamber, only the outermost layer of skin is cooled extremely, while the body's core stays warm. That makes the session safe, short and noticeably more pleasant than jumping into the river Iller.
Focus: Metabolism & Shape
In the cold chamber, the body works to warm itself against -110 °C – and burns energy in the process. For guests from Balderschwang, the chamber is therefore often part of a bigger plan involving exercise, diet and recovery. The cold stimulus activates brown fat tissue, which turns energy directly into heat, and noticeably gets circulation going. A single visit doesn't replace a calorie deficit – but 2 to 3 sessions a week over several weeks set off a metabolic impulse that many describe as more everyday energy and fewer cravings. Guests from Oberallgäu district who come regularly get the best value with the 10-session or 10-session package.
