THE POWER OF FASTING: REGENERATION FOR BODY AND MIND
February 2022
There are so many benefits to the type of controlled fasting offered at the Original FX Mayr. We support you in your food choices, according to your needs and without any punishing deprivation (and plenty of therapies). Fat deposits start to melt away, ce
A TIMEOUT FULL OF LIGHTNESS
Fasting at the Original FX Mayr is a fresh start for both body and mind. When our guests opt for a fasting diet they usually want to lose a few pounds or get on top of specific health issues. However, many learn, in the course of their treatment, that fasting has far-reaching and profound effects. Through wilful restraint from eating and a new focus on yourself, you learn to let go, release physical and mental baggage and experience a completely new feeling of lightness.
BENEFITS FOR BODY AND MIND
There are approximately 180 physical mechanisms that benefit from fasting. Cell renewal begins after just 15 hours without food intake (dinner cancelling or a pure alkaline bouillon). Sugar and fat deposits are broken down, toxins are flushed from the body and you start to lose weight.
Besides the many physical changes and improvements, there’s also a lot going on in your mind. The act of fasting itself, the calming atmosphere and the steady rhythm of a fasting diet can help you to discover more about yourself. Many guests finally find the time to process their lives and big events, or make decisions about their futures.
INTENSIFYING THERAPIES
If you want to intensify the many positive effects of your stay with us, we can offer a wide range of additional services such as:
SHIATSU
This full-body treatment restores the flow of energy in the body and free blockages. It has an energising and balancing effect, it reduces stress and relieves tension.
OSTEOPATHY
This holistic manual diagnosis and therapy can effectively treat restricted movement, tension and pain in the musculoskeletal system and aims to positively affect the body’s nervous, circulatory, and lymphatic systems.
GUIDED MEDITATIONS
Join us on a relaxing journey to more calmness and improved mental well-being. You’ll learn how to use everyday breathing techniques and mindfulness exercises to reduce stress levels and find your inner calm.
CRYOTHERAPY
Cryotherapy uses extreme cold to briefly “freeze” the pain conductivity of nerves. Overstimulated nervous systems are given a soothing break and can regenerate more effectively.
WINTER SWIMMING IN LAKE WÖRTHERSEE:
There is a reason the trend for cold water swimming continues. Exhilarating, refreshing and restorative, cold water swimming strengthens the immune and cardiovascular systems, improves circulation, deepens your sleep, spikes energy levels, and reduces inflammation in the body. Led by our exercise therapist Nikolai, our lake makes the most exquisite setting for this early morning ritual. You won’t regret it .
