The process for guests from Oberstaufen

How it works!

Before you set off from Oberstaufen, 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.

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: Work & Physical Strain

A physically demanding job? Cold chamber recovery for Oberstaufen

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 Oberstaufen it's only around 55 minutes – including changing and the session, you're done in about 30 minutes.

For guests from Oberstaufen

What the cold treatment can do

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

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

After the holidays many from Oberstaufen use the chamber as a restart for their own rhythm. Unlike a cryo sauna, here the whole body including the head is in the cold – an argument for guests from Oberstaufen. First-time bookers from Oberstaufen receive a short checklist by message beforehand.

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 Oberstaufen

How to plan your sessions

Rhythm for Oberstaufen

Bundling trips is worthwhile from Oberstaufen: many guests combine the session with shopping, a doctor's appointment or training in Memmingen. That way, the 62 km trip becomes not an extra errand but a fixed part of the weekly rhythm.

Summer or winter?

In winter, the cold chamber is mainly immune and mood training for guests from Oberstaufen, 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.

Cold Chamber, ice bath or sauna?

There are lakes, streams and, in winter, plenty of cold around Oberstaufen – yet the chamber is something different. Cold water cools the body's core and needs a long time to get used to. The dry cold at -110 °C works within three minutes through the skin's receptors, without the core cooling down. The stimulus is stronger, and the strain on circulation is shorter and more controlled.

Focus: Metabolism & Shape

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

In the cold chamber, the body works to warm itself against -110 °C – and burns energy in the process. For guests from Oberstaufen, 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.

Guests from Oberstaufen mainly report two effects: a clear head in the evening and calmer sleep the following night.

From Oberstaufen the quickest route runs über die A7 Richtung Memmingen towards Memmingen. In Oberstaufen many guests work in trades and care – jobs where the back works every day. From Oberstaufen we often hear that muscle soreness is far milder the next day.

  • Ideal as part of a change in diet
  • Activation of brown fat tissue
  • Increased energy expenditure after the session
  • Firmer skin through improved circulation
