The process for guests from Pleß

How it works!

To make the trip from Pleß 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: Longevity

Longevity in Pleß: 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. Whole-body cryotherapy delivers exactly that kind of stimulus in concentrated form: three minutes, the whole body, a measurable circulatory response. For people from Pleß who deliberately invest in their healthspan, the chamber is therefore often the weekly fixed point alongside strength and endurance training. With around 15 km to travel from Pleß, the effort stays manageable – and the monthly unlimited pass makes several sessions a month easy to plan too.

In Pleß, regular sitzungen in paket tops the list. Those travelling from Unterallgäu district often combine the session with physiotherapy or training. For guests from Pleß, early mornings and evenings are the most relaxed slots. From Pleß the route runs über die B300; after 18 minutes and 15 kilometres you're at the door. Locally speaking: Pleß gehört zu den Gemeinden, aus denen Gäste regelmäßig mit der 10er-Karte kommen.

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

  • Consistency beats intensity
  • Combines with strength and endurance training
  • More everyday energy and focus
  • Monthly unlimited pass with unlimited sessions (Mon–Sat)

For guests from Pleß

What the cold treatment can do

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

Important for anyone travelling from Pleß: dry skin, no damp clothing, and no heavy meal before the session.

Unlike a cold shower at home in Pleß, the chamber reaches a depth the body answers quite differently. We keep early and late slots free so guests from Unterallgäu district can come after work. Demand from Unterallgäu district peaks between October and March – booking early pays off.

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 Pleß

How to plan your sessions

Rhythm for Pleß

Guests travelling from Pleß 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?

Many people in Pleß 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?

There are lakes, streams and, in winter, plenty of cold around Pleß – 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: Pain & Joints

Cold therapy for joint and back pain – for guests from Pleß

Back pain, stiff joints, rheumatic complaints or tension after long working days are among the most common reasons guests from Pleß and Unterallgäu district try whole-body cryotherapy. The dry cold at -110 °C dampens the transmission of pain signals and has an anti-inflammatory effect – without medication, without side effects in the classic sense. Many describe a noticeably lighter body feeling and greater freedom of movement after the session, which, depending on the starting point, can last several hours to days. Important: the cold chamber does not replace medical treatment, it complements it. If you have an existing condition, please talk to your doctor first.

For beginners from Pleß the visit starts with a short briefing; the time in the chamber itself stays at three minutes.

Guests from Pleß report better sleep above all in the night after the appointment. It's 15 kilometres from Pleß – there's barely a closer alternative in Unterallgäu district. Typical for Pleß: working people, athletes, and those who want to switch off after long days.

  • Pain relief without medication
  • An anti-inflammatory impulse throughout the whole body
  • More mobility in everyday life
  • A sensible addition to physiotherapy

How often should I come to the cold chamber from Pleß?

Two fixed appointments a week have proven effective; in intense phases, more sessions are possible too – the monthly unlimited pass covers unlimited sessions Monday to Saturday.

Is Cryotherapy at -110 °C dangerous?

The dry cold only cools the outermost layer of skin, not the body's core. With protection for ears, hands and feet and expert guidance, the session is well tolerated – except in certain pre-existing conditions.

What do I need to bring from Pleß?

Swimwear – we provide protection for ears, hands, feet and mouth. Please come into the chamber dry, without creams or jewellery; we'll explain the details calmly before your first session.

Can I do cryotherapy directly in Pleß?

There's no whole-body cold chamber with -110 °C and Cyclon eddy-current cooling in Pleß. The nearest address is Memmingen – at 15 km or around 18 minutes' drive, one of the shortest journeys in Unterallgäu district.

Is the cold chamber worth it in summer for guests from Pleß?

Yes. The chamber works with dry cold, completely independent of the weather in Pleß. Especially on hot days, many guests find the three minutes particularly refreshing and sleep-promoting.

What's the difference between a cold chamber and an ice bath?

An ice bath works with wet cold around 4 to 10 °C and quickly becomes uncomfortable. In the chamber, dry cold of -110 °C prevails – the stimulus is far stronger, but it only affects the outermost layer of skin and most guests from Pleß find it more bearable.

Can I also give the session from Pleß as a gift?

Yes – vouchers are available for single sessions and for packages. They're a popular gift in Unterallgäu district and can be requested directly at an appointment or by phone.
