The process for guests from Durach

How it works!

Many first-time guests from Durach underestimate how uncomplicated a session is. No long preparation, no wet towel, no warm-up phase: you go in dry and come out dry. Here's what the process looks like in detail.

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: Stress & Sleep

Winding down after work – cold therapy for guests from Durach

Constant stress keeps the body on high alert. The cold chamber radically interrupts that pattern: three minutes at -110 °C demand full attention, followed by a deep relaxation that many describe as a "reset". The release of endorphins noticeably lifts mood, while many guests from Durach report calmer, deeper sleep the night after. Coming from work in Durach, plan on about an hour in total for travel, the session and the rest period afterwards – it's around 33 minutes each way.

  • An endorphin kick and a clear head
  • Deeper sleep the night after the session
  • Interrupting stress patterns
  • More calm in everyday life
  • Compact: three minutes instead of a long wellness session

For guests from Durach

What the cold can do

Whether someone from Durach comes for back pain, for their figure, or simply for more energy: the stimulus is the same, but the focus isn't. These four areas sum up what cold can do.

Practical tips for Durach

How to plan your sessions

Rhythm for Durach

Guests travelling from Durach 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.

Summer or winter?

Whether it's a heatwave or snowfall in Oberallgäu district: the chamber is a constant -110 °C. Especially on hot summer days, guests from Durach find the three minutes particularly pleasant.

Cold Chamber, ice bath or sauna?

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 Durach: 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: Sport & Recovery

Recover faster – the cold chamber for athletes from Durach

Anyone in Durach who plays football or handball, cycles, runs or trains with weights knows the problem: there's often too little time for real recovery between two sessions. Three minutes at -110 °C act like a turbo boost for recovery: the extreme dry cold constricts blood vessels, reduces signal transmission in the pain fibres and slows inflammatory processes after intense exertion. Once you step out, the vessels widen again and oxygen-rich blood floods the worked muscles. Many active people from Oberallgäu district schedule the session straight after training or the day after competing – with around 33 minutes' drive from Durach, that fits easily into a weekly routine.

  • Less muscle soreness after tough sessions
  • Shorter breaks between two training sessions
  • Support for irritation in tendons and joints
  • A fresh feeling before competition days
  • Combines well with physiotherapy and strength training

Is Cryotherapy at -110 °C dangerous?

The dry cold only cools the outermost layer of skin, not the body's core. With protection for ears, hands and feet and expert guidance, the session is well tolerated – except in certain pre-existing conditions.

What do I need to bring from Durach?

Underwear or swimwear – we provide protection for ears, hands, feet and mouth. Please come into the chamber dry, without creams or jewellery; we'll explain the details calmly before your first session.

Yes. The chamber works with dry cold, completely independent of the weather in Durach. Especially on hot days, many guests find the three minutes particularly refreshing and sleep-promoting.

What's the difference between a cold chamber and an ice bath?

An ice bath works with wet cold around 4 to 10 °C and quickly becomes uncomfortable. In the chamber, dry cold of -110 °C prevails – the stimulus is far stronger, but it only affects the outermost layer of skin and most guests from Durach find it more bearable.

Yes – vouchers are available for single sessions and for packages. They're a popular gift in Oberallgäu district and can be requested directly at an appointment or by phone.
