Reducing meal size is a key to relieving the metabolism. According to studies, changes in meal size and frequency, along with a consistent eating-fasting rhythm, have an impact on the occurrence or improvement of many age-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, and dementia.

Our therapy applications at Marienkron

At Marienkron, experienced physicians, therapists, and nutritionists support you with their expertise in various therapy applications, treatments, movement and meditation sessions, as well as in nutrition. These include Kneipp treatments, various massage techniques, physical therapies, wraps, baths, and packs.

These applications unfold their effect through individual medical approval, which takes place during the initial consultation in the medical packages. For regeneration packages without a medical program, approval is obtained in a brief medical consultation.

For even more well-being, you can additionally book various massages as well as Beauté and cosmetic treatments. These offers are also available to guests who wish to regenerate with us without therapeutic supervision and without medical approval.

Here you will find a detailed description of all therapy applications.

Why the Belly Knows More Than We ThinkWarum der Bauch mehr weiß, als wir denken

The power of health lies in the gut

Centuries ago, Hildegard of Bingen and Pastor Kneipp already understood how important the gut is for our health. And yet, this organ is often underestimated. Everyday complaints and chronic lifestyle diseases related to the digestive system make this very clear.

Who doesn’t know the feeling when something “sits heavy on the stomach” or the belly feels uncomfortable? Most often this happens due to eating too quickly, unsuitable drinks, lack of exercise, or a missing rhythm in daily life. When this occurs, the gut flora falls out of balance – and our belly lets us know.

For the body to truly become healthy, the gut must get back into motion. This knowledge is anything but outdated – on the contrary: in our fast-paced times, insights from medicine and research are gaining more importance than ever.

Balance in the Gut

A new equilibrium for the metabolism

No matter how you look at it: a large share of chronic lifestyle diseases such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and obesity have their roots in an imbalance of the gut – and are, unfortunately, largely self-inflicted. In most cases, lifestyle has fallen out of balance, and health problems make themselves felt quite literally.

Medication, as is well known, usually only has a short-term effect, while physical fitness and maintaining a near-normal weight work in the long run – especially if you start early. Of course, such advice doesn’t always sound very appealing, often carrying the taste of sacrifice and hardship.

At Marienkron, we rethink therapy and preventive health – offering pathways to recovery that strengthen without burdening.

A Fresh Start for Your Health

Marienkron Medical Concept

With the Marienkron Medical Concept, we accompany you on a journey that places joy in life and enjoyment at the center. (Intermittent) fasting here does not mean renunciation, but the mindful choice of suitable foods and an individual eating rhythm – relieving the gut, metabolism, and the entire organism.

Our experienced team supports you with competence, honesty, and care through proven methods such as Kneipp treatments, wraps, meditation, movement, and simple impulses for self-application. This way, you can develop new routines that contribute to greater well-being in everyday life.

Oat days, herbs, teas, and spices play a supportive role – and can be experienced with all your senses during your stay at Marienkron.
