The process for guests from Illerrieden

How it works!

To make the trip from Illerrieden worthwhile, here's the essentials about the technology and process: -110 °C, dry air, eddy-current cooling, three minutes. The overview below shows what happens in the body.

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.

Chamber temperature

-110 °C

Duration

03:00 MIN

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: Metabolism & Shape

Boost your metabolism: the cold chamber as support for weight loss in Illerrieden

In the cold chamber, the body works to warm itself against -110 °C – and burns energy in the process. For guests from Illerrieden, 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 Alb-Donau-Kreis who come regularly get the best value with the 10-session or 10-session package.

In Illerrieden, circulation and vitality tops the list. Illerrieden liegt im Illertal südlich von Ulm. Those travelling from Alb-Donau-Kreis often combine the session with physiotherapy or training. From Illerrieden the route runs über die Illertalstraße; after 36 minutes and 42 kilometres you're at the door. For guests from Illerrieden, early mornings and evenings are the most relaxed slots.

A fixed rhythm pays off more than single visits, especially from Illerrieden: the body adapts to the cold stimulus and responds faster.

  • Activation of brown fat tissue
  • Increased energy expenditure after the session
  • Firmer skin through improved circulation
  • More motivation for sport and exercise

For guests from Illerrieden

What the cold treatment can do

Whether someone from Illerrieden 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 from Illerrieden start with a single session and switch to a package once they've found their rhythm.

Compared with an ice bath the chamber stays dry – for many from Illerrieden that's the decisive difference. We keep early and late slots free so guests from Alb-Donau-Kreis can come after work. In spring, guests from Alb-Donau-Kreis like to combine the session with getting back into training.

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 Illerrieden

How to plan your sessions

Rhythm for Illerrieden

Bundling trips is worthwhile from Illerrieden: many guests combine the session with shopping, a doctor's appointment or training in Memmingen. That way, the 42 km trip becomes not an extra errand but a fixed part of the weekly rhythm.

Summer or winter?

Whether it's a heatwave or snowfall in Alb-Donau-Kreis: the chamber is a constant -110 °C. Especially on hot summer days, guests from Illerrieden 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 Illerrieden: 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: Stress & Sleep

Winding down after work – cold therapy for guests from Illerrieden

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 Illerrieden report calmer, deeper sleep the night after. Coming from work in Illerrieden, plan on about an hour in total for travel, the session and the rest period afterwards – it's around 36 minutes each way.

A fixed rhythm pays off more than single visits, especially from Illerrieden: the body adapts to the cold stimulus and responds faster.

Illerrieden is around 42 kilometres from our location – for many in Alb-Donau-Kreis a distance that fits alongside other errands. From Illerrieden we often hear from club athletes who take recovery seriously. Many from Alb-Donau-Kreis describe a lightness that lasts several hours.
