Kneipp-Treatments
-
Water:
Water is an ideal conductor of heat and cold and as such forms the core of the famous "Kneipp Cure." Practised at home, alternating hot and cold water treatments will stimulate the circulation and strengthen the body's immune defence system. Especially recommended: Hot and cold rinses, knee and thigh rinses, cold rinses, cold footbaths (15-20 seconds) and water stepping.
-
Exercise:
Regular physical exercise, preferably taken outdoors, without the pressure of competition noticeably improves your general sense of well-being. It revitalizes the entire organism and strengthens the body’s natural immune defences. It is particularly the stamina-increasing sports of medium exertion level that can reduce cholesterol and body weight, prevent heart attacks and strokes as well as improve our ability to cope with stress.
Daily: take the stairs instead of the lift; go by bike instead of by car.
Leisure time: Nordic walking, jogging, cycling, swimming, cross-country skiing, hiking, dancing
-
Plants:
Plant extracts are used in pharmaceutical products and also in dietary supplements, foodstuffs and body care products. You will find them, for example, in teas, dragées, bath products or ointments.
-
Nutrition:
A balanced diet is the basis of a healthy and active life. This does not mean following diets and nutrition plans but rather consciously enjoying a varied and balanced diet.
-
Balance:
A proper balance in all our activities is the basis for a healthy, active and content life. Water, plants, exercise and diet: each of these elements makes an individual contribution to our health and enjoyment of life.
Make sure you find sufficient relaxation. Plan your day so that there is enough time for breaks and treat yourself to a calming cup of tea now and then or a relaxing bath.
