The process for guests from Holzgünz

How it works!

Before you set off from Holzgünz, 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.

Arrival & briefing

Arrive relaxed

We calmly explain the process and answer all your questions before your first session.

Getting ready

Change & get ready

Swimwear, hat, gloves, socks and a face mask – your skin stays dry and free of creams.

3 minutes at -110 °C

Into the cold

Dry cold down to -110 °C, evenly distributed by our eddy-current cooling (Cyclon).

Step out & feel it

Done. Now feel it.

Warmth, tingling, freshness: many feel the effect right after the very 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: Skin & Anti-Aging

Firmer skin and a fresher complexion – Cryotherapy for Holzgünz

Cold is a classic tool in cosmetics – in the whole-body cold chamber, it works on the entire surface of the skin. The strong stimulus briefly draws blood towards the body's core, after which it flows back to the periphery and supplies the skin with oxygen and nutrients. Guests from Holzgünz often report a fresher complexion, a firmer feel to the skin and a calmer, less flushed appearance. The cool impulse can also feel pleasant on blemish-prone or inflammation-prone skin. Combined with drinking enough water and a regular skincare routine, this creates a visible effect – with around 11 km to travel from Holzgünz, it's easy to plan as a weekly beauty routine.

From Holzgünz all you need is a towel and time – we provide everything else. The most common reason in Holzgünz: Evening recovery and better sleep. Guests from Unterallgäu district often come during their lunch break or straight after work. Aus Holzgünz kommen viele Gäste nach Feierabend in die Kältekammer. That makes the appointment especially practical for Holzgünz. Getting here from Holzgünz is simple: über die B300, 11 kilometres, roughly 14 minutes.

In Unterallgäu district many combine the session with fresh-air movement – a walk or easy ride afterwards extends the feeling of warmth.

  • A calming stimulus for flushed skin
  • Support for connective tissue
  • Combines well with cosmetic treatments
  • A fresher, rosier complexion right after the session

For guests from Holzgünz

What the cold treatment can do

Whole-body cryotherapy doesn't work on a single spot but on the whole organism. Guests from Holzgünz therefore come with very different goals – from post-sport recovery to skin and sleep.

For guests from Holzgünz the rest afterwards matters: ten minutes of movement in the warmth brings circulation back into rhythm.

Booking is online around the clock – handy for shift workers from Holzgünz. Unlike a cryo sauna, here the whole body including the head is in the cold – an argument for guests from Holzgünz. In winter, guests from Holzgünz ask more about immunity; in summer more about recovery.

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.

Your visit

How a visit at Kempterstraße runs

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 Holzgünz

How to plan your sessions

Rhythm for Holzgünz

Bundling trips is worthwhile from Holzgünz: many guests combine the session with shopping, a doctor's appointment or training in Memmingen. That way, the 11 km trip becomes not an extra errand but a fixed part of the weekly rhythm.

Summer or winter?

Many people in Holzgünz start a series in autumn to get through the infection season well, and continue in spring for reasons of shape and skin. The chamber works regardless of weather and season.

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 Holzgünz: 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: Longevity

Longevity in Holzgünz: cold as a building block for healthy ageing

Longevity isn't just about getting older, it's about staying healthy and capable for longer. Short, strong stimuli – heat, cold, exercise, fasting – are among the tools that keep the body adaptable.

For people from Holzgünz who deliberately invest in their healthspan, the chamber is therefore often the weekly fixed point alongside strength and endurance training. With around 11 km to travel from Holzgünz, the effort stays manageable – and the monthly unlimited pass makes several sessions a month easy to plan too.
