Kneipp facility "Sieba Brünna" on the Kristberg in Silbertal
Eastwards from the mountain station of the Montafon Kristbergbahn (1,450m above sea level), you reach the Kneipp facility Sieba Brünna after approx. 3 km. This offers true refreshment for body, mind and soul, especially on hot summer days.
Over 100 years ago, Pastor Sebastian Kneipp (1821-1897) developed his comprehensive natural healing system, which is now known throughout the world. Based on a wealth of folk healing experience and knowledge from monastic medicine, he revolutionized the healing methods of the time.
His holistic concept of health, which is based on the balance between body and mind, rests on four other pillars in addition to water treatments: the use of medicinal plants, a healthy diet, sufficient exercise and inner balance.
When using the Kneipp pool, there are a few things you should bear in mind to ensure the desired results.
Treading water: When used correctly, treading water is said to stimulate blood circulation and make you less susceptible to colds. Walk through the treading pool in the so-called stork walk for no longer than 30 - 60 seconds.
Arm bath: Immerse both arms in cold water for 15 - 30 seconds; the arm bath has a refreshing and calming effect and is said to help with heart disease. The following applies to both applications: Do not use if your arms and legs are cold, stop the application immediately if you feel very cold, only gently wipe off the water after finishing and move immediately.
