The process for guests from Elchingen
The process is identical for all guests – including those from Elchingen – and deliberately kept simple: arrive, change, a short briefing, three minutes in the chamber, rest afterwards. The technology behind it is a Cyclon eddy-current cooling system that guides dry cold evenly around the body.
Arrival & briefing
We calmly explain the process and answer all your questions before your first session.

Good to know
Session lasting 3 minutes of dry cold at -110°C.
The difference: whole-body cryotherapy with eddy-current cooling (Cyclon) that circulates the cold air evenly around the body.
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.
You are professionally supervised throughout the session: we discuss your health situation beforehand, explain the process and stay in visual and verbal contact. We recommend 2–3 sessions per week.
Focus: Immune System
Especially during the damp, cold months in Neu-Ulm district, infections tend to pile up. The short, controlled cold stimulus at -110 °C acts as a training impulse for the body: circulation, blood vessels and the immune system are all challenged, without the body actually cooling down the way it would in an ice bath, because the cold is dry and lasts only three minutes. Many guests from Elchingen therefore use the chamber as a fixed routine over the winter, often twice a week. The effect builds up over a series; individual sessions are more of an experience than a training stimulus.
Around Elchingen, clubs, companies and families like to book together. Elchingen liegt an der A7 – die Fahrt nach Memmingen ist unkompliziert. 48 kilometres lie between Elchingen and Memmingen – über die A7 plan 40 minutes each way. For guests from Elchingen, early mornings and evenings are the most relaxed slots. The most requested topic in Elchingen is anti-aging and skin tightening.
If you're covering the 48 kilometres from Elchingen, don't schedule the session right before a deadline: the rest afterwards is part of it.
For guests from Elchingen
Whether someone from Elchingen 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.
Many come from Elchingen in pairs – experience shows the first appointment is much easier together.
Compared with an ice bath the chamber stays dry – for many from Elchingen that's the decisive difference. Demand from Neu-Ulm district peaks between October and March – booking early pays off. We keep early and late slots free so guests from Neu-Ulm district can come after work.
Please note: we cannot promise any cure – every body responds differently to cold therapy. Results also depend on regular sessions of at least 2–3 times a week over a longer period.




You can find all effects in detail on the page Effects – the process is described under How It Works .
Your visit
We schedule every appointment so that you can arrive calmly. On a first visit we take extra time for a short conversation, answer open questions and show you the chamber before you step in. You then decide whether to use the full three minutes.
During the session one of us stays in visual contact and talks to you through the intercom. Afterwards we recommend movement – a few minutes on the bike or a short walk is enough to get your circulation going again.
Arriving
About ten minutes early – changing room, short briefing, questions answered.
In the chamber
Up to three minutes, stoppable at any time, always supervised.
Afterwards
Movement, a warm drink and a short chat about how it felt.
Practical tips for Elchingen
Guests travelling from Elchingen 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.
In winter, the cold chamber is mainly immune and mood training for guests from Elchingen, while in summer it's a recovery tool after cycling, running and hiking trips. The cold stimulus itself stays identical all year round: -110 °C, dry, three minutes.
Sauna and cold chamber aren't opposites, but two sides of the same principle: short, strong stimuli that the body responds to with adaptation. Many guests from Elchingen combine both – sauna for relaxation, the cold chamber for recovery, immunity and metabolism.
Focus: Work & Physical Strain
Trades, care work, farming, production, shift work: many people in Neu-Ulm 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 Elchingen it's only around 40 minutes – including changing and the session, you're done in about 30 minutes.
The effect lasts hours to days depending on your situation – so fixed weekdays suit guests from Elchingen better than spontaneous visits.
Noticeably many couples and families from Elchingen book their appointments together. Many from Neu-Ulm district describe a lightness that lasts several hours. It's 48 kilometres from Elchingen – there's barely a closer alternative in Neu-Ulm district.
