The process for guests from Ottobeuren
How it works!
To make the trip from Ottobeuren 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.
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: Immune System
Strengthening the immune system – why people from Ottobeuren visit the cold chamber
Especially during the damp, cold months in Unterallgäu 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 Ottobeuren 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.
Guests from Ottobeuren report: Als Kneippkurort hat Ottobeuren eine lange Tradition mit Wasser und Reizen – die Ganzkörperkältetherapie führt diesen Gedanken konsequent weiter. The most requested topic in Ottobeuren is spa-style treatment, prevention and longevity. Those travelling from Unterallgäu district often combine the session with physiotherapy or training. 15 kilometres lie between Ottobeuren and Memmingen – über die B18 Richtung Memmingen-Ost plan 18 minutes each way. For guests from Ottobeuren, early mornings and evenings are the most relaxed slots.
For beginners from Ottobeuren the visit starts with a short briefing; the time in the chamber itself stays at three minutes.
- More alertness right after the chamber
- A complement to exercise in the fresh air
- A cold stimulus that trains vessels and defences
- Dry cold – no cooling down like in an ice bath
For guests from Ottobeuren
What the cold treatment can do
Whole-body cryotherapy doesn't work on a single spot but on the whole organism. Guests from Ottobeuren therefore come with very different goals – from post-sport recovery to skin and sleep.
Anyone coming from Unterallgäu district with a pre-existing condition should check with a doctor first; we advise on the procedure by phone.
Unlike a cold shower at home in Ottobeuren, the chamber reaches a depth the body answers quite differently. In spring, guests from Unterallgäu district like to combine the session with getting back into training. Cancellations from Ottobeuren are no problem up to 24 hours in advance.

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 Ottobeuren
How to plan your sessions
Rhythm for Ottobeuren
Guests travelling from Ottobeuren 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 Unterallgäu district: the chamber is a constant -110 °C. Especially on hot summer days, guests from Ottobeuren find the three minutes particularly pleasant.
Cold Chamber, ice bath or sauna?
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 Ottobeuren combine both – sauna for relaxation, the cold chamber for recovery, immunity and metabolism.
Focus: Work & Physical Strain
A physically demanding job? Cold chamber recovery for Ottobeuren
Trades, care work, farming, production, shift work: many people in Unterallgäu 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 Ottobeuren it's only around 18 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 Ottobeuren better than spontaneous visits.
Many from Unterallgäu district describe a lightness that lasts several hours. Typical for Ottobeuren: working people, athletes, and those who want to switch off after long days. Travelling from Ottobeuren means well-built roads without chaotic through-town traffic.
- A clear head after your shift
- Easy scheduling via online booking
- Packages for regular sessions
- A short break without using half a day off
