We have recently introduced you to some special health hotels here on the Green Travel Blog, but today we want to tell you more about the extraordinary time-outs for body and soul, that help you feel relaxed and strengthened when you’re back in everyday life: What offers are there and what does it mean to take part in a fasting cure?

Fasting after Wettcke or Buchinger – what’s behind all this?

Make Buchinger and alkaline fasting courses according to Wettcke. The fasting leaders in the hotel are certified nutrition and health consultants and take care of your welfare at all times.

A fasting course according to Dr. med. Buchinger takes one to three weeks and is accompanied by a leisure program with exercise, relaxation, nutritional and health advice as well as daily fasting talks. The fasting cure is a drinking diet based on vegetable broth, juices and teas and Buchinger’s fasting is supposed to activate the self-healing powers of the body and simply makes you feel good.

The alkaline fasting course is a cure with fruits and vegetables, which deacidifies the body and at the same time has a healing and health-promoting effect. While alkaline fasting, do not worry about a growling stomach. Instead, you can relieve your body and lay the foundation for a healthier diet back home. During the one-week course, you only eat plant products and drink freshly pressed juices, tea and water. To accompany this, the SCHWARZWALD PANORAMA offers daily discussions, hikes, yoga and much more. The many additional offers such as Thai yoga massages, classic massages and beauty treatments complete your fasting holiday.

By the way: even if fasting on vacation may not sound so relaxing at first, the supporting program provides relaxation and you will benefit from this experience long after your vacation.
