This activates the body's natural regulatory mechanisms and strengthens our resistance. Similar to pressing the reset button: everything is set to NEW.”

Positive effects of floating in Bad Elsteraner thermal brine

  • Strengthens resistance and the immune system
  • Loosens and relaxes the entire muscles
  • Reduces stress hormones
  • Promotes deep relaxation
  • Offers relaxation like after a short vacation
  • Is a feel-good experience for all senses
