THE BIGGEST VICTORY, BEATING YOURSELF!


Soothing and holistic natural healing methods

Original Schroth Cure

FASTING ACCORDING TO JOHANN SCHROTH

The Schroth Cure is a beneficial and holistic natural healing method to bring you and your body back into harmony. The Schroth Cure has been successfully practiced here at Johanneshof for over 30 years. Ideally, you should invest two to three weeks in your health. The aim is to detoxify the body with the help of a conscious diet, gentle training and relaxation, so that it is able to release its own healing and regenerative powers.

 

The Schroth Cure
THE ORIGINAL SCHROTH CURE IN OBERSTAUFEN

Cure according to Johann Schroth

The name Schroth Cure does not, as many people think, refer to a cure involving grains and cereals, but rather the opposite is the case. The name comes from the inventor of the cure, Johann Schroth. Around 200 years ago, the carter of the time noticed the positive effect of moist compresses in combination with a suitable diet. Nowadays, it has been scientifically proven that our intestines are much more than just a digestive system. Our intestines are part of our immune system and therefore a healthy diet is crucial for our general well-being.

YOUR CURE AT JOHANNESHOF

The Schroth Cure is defined by an extremely low-salt, gently calorie-reduced diet in which animal products are completely avoided. The aim of the Schroth Cure is to stimulate the body to deacidify and detoxify. Weight loss is a positive side effect. The early morning packs are an equally important part of the Schroth Cure. Except on Sundays, you are woken up daily by a trained "packer" in the early hours of the morning (from 3 a.m.) with a hot herbal tea.

 

 

The sleeping body is then wrapped in a cold, damp sheet and "packed" with dry, warm blankets and up to three hot water bottles. After a few minutes, the wrap becomes comfortably warm. During the two hours or so in the pack, the body reacts with a healing fever and literally flushes out the metabolic residues. The best thing about the Schroth pack, however, is the night's rest: after unpacking, you drift off into a dreamy sleep.

Food

The Schroth diet consists of a calorie-reduced, predominantly alkaline diet on all treatment days, without animal protein, fats and additional salt.

 

Drinking

Alternate drinking and dry days. The recommended drinks are water, teas, fruit juices and also low-calorie, dry, natural wines.

 

Wrap

An increase in body temperature of approx. 1-2°C accelerates the metabolism, which contributes significantly to the detoxification process.

 

Balance

Relaxation techniques, massages and walks reduce stress. Exercise on drinking days stimulates the metabolism and also ensures fat loss.
