Individual Nutrition Advice

​

Our individual nutrition advice service is conducted by either a qualified dietitian or nutrition consultant. The advice session may begin with a short assessment including blood pressure, heart rate, body mass index, waist hip ratio and body fat percentage.

The dietitian also may ask you detailed questions to determine your current eating habits and give advice on how they can be improved.  If you are a guest in the hotel they will also be able to design a personal dietary program for the length of your stay in consultation with the hotel chef.

The aim of the program is to motivate you into improving your nutritional lifestyle, not just whilst you are with us, but when you return home as well.

Nordic Walking   ( 3 times a week )

​

Nordic walking is derived from cross-country skiing and its principle is based on using two specially designed poles whilst walking. This means that during the workout the upper body is utilized, resulting in a more intensive cardio workout compared to normal walking.

However because of the support from the walking sticks, you do not feel you are working out at such a high intensity, meaning a lower ‘perceived rate of exertion’. In addition, the exercise works the arms, shoulders, upper chest and back muscles through a full range of movement, lengthening muscles that are often tight. The poles are also good support and they provide stability if you have balance, knee or leg problems.

Infrasauna    ( 2 times a week )

​

The infrasauna is different to a normal sauna in that the infrared light which is used, (similar to the rays of the sun), heats only the body and not the air in the sauna chamber. This means that the temperature of the chamber only reaches about 38 °C making it a suitable treatment for guests who dislike the heat intensity of the traditional sauna or who have cardiovascular complications. This heat, generated by the rays, penetrates through the skin to produce a heat deep in the body.

The direct result of the treatment is improved blood circulation, detoxification through perspiration, a strengthened immune system and a feeling of relaxation. The heat also leads to a dilation of blood vessels that increases the oxygen supply to the joints, hence fastening the healing process.

Aqua Detox   ( 2 times a week )

​

This revolutionary stimulation apparatus is a system, which combines the use of water and a bio-energetic field to positively encourage the micro-circulation of the body. Aqua Detox is based on a holistic approach, using energy in the body and ionization. Your feet are placed in a saline solution and the apparatus turned on, whilst an electrode delivers a small, but electric charge into the solution. This charge ionizes the water and travels around the body, giving the cells a small negative charge. This helps the body to increase the oxygen supply to all the organs, and stimulates anything that may not be working effectively - either due to tiredness, poor diet or stress. The solution in the treatment bowl changes color during the session to - brown, orange, green or even blue! This color change is due to the ionization process and does not relate to the detoxification of the body; neither does it have any connection with the physical state of the person. The Aqua Detox treatment provides electrons and negative ions to re-balance the charge and neutralize the positive ions, therefore allowing the blood to improve its delivery of oxygen to the cells and tissues. Neutralizing the positive ions allows the cells to detoxify and accept nutrition. It can be used by people of all ages; however it is not recommended for people with pacemakers, epileptics or pregnant women!

Mechanical Lymph Drainage   (  2 times 20' a week )

​

This treatment is for the alleviation of lymph oedema using a special mechanical lymph massage developed by Dr. Emil Vodder (a biologist from Denmark).  
Symptoms mostly affect the lower extremities where gravitation is the strongest and include: swollen legs, distended pain, cellulite, restless leg syndrome and heavy legs. The treatment involves gentle pumping, circular movements to increase the lymph flow, helping to transport the non-necessary fluids into the blood circulation.
The result is that the swelling decreases, the heavy leg sensation disappears and the person feels lighter and slimmer. It also helps treat cellulite.
During the treatment the lymph drainage applicator is applied to a certain part of the body (arm, leg, and/or belly). The machine pumps up and down, applying an alternating pressure.
Because of hygienic reasons a long sleeved shirt or trousers are advised.
The lymph drainage is prescribed for a maximum of 10 times, the duration of the treatment is between 30-40 minutes. 1-2 treatments a week are recommended.
