TYROLEAN SAUNA (SWEATHOUSE):
The Tyrolean sauna is derived from the Finnish sauna in the way it works, but it is constructed using local materials. It detoxifies the organism and stimulates the circulation.

TYROLEAN MINERAL OIL BATH:
The origins of the “healthy natural power” come from bituminous shale 180 million years old, which is processed in a complex procedure to extract the fossil oil used in bath treatments. Treatment is carried out in a special bathtub. It is particularly effective for healing back and joint ailments, rheumatic complaints and skin irritations. However, the mineral oil bath is also used to boost general wellbeing. Duration of bath: approx. 20 minutes.
