After a stroll through the TalVITAL spa park or a hike around Saalhausen, the footbath invites you to enjoy a soothing dip. And if you’d like to dip your arms in the cool water as well, you can use the arm bath located right next to the footbath.
Both the footbath and the arm bath are filled with water from April through October and are therefore available for use during this period.
By the way, regular foot soaking stimulates circulation and promotes arterial blood flow.
The Kneipp walk is recommended after exercise (when your legs and feet are already warmed up). In the so-called “stork walk,” you walk through the knee-deep, cold water until you feel a slight burning sensation or the cold stimulus sets in. Do not dry your legs; simply wipe the water off, then put on warm clothes and keep moving.
Arm bath: Immerse your arms in the water up to the middle of your upper arms. Remove your arms when you feel a distinct sensation of cold. Shake off the water and warm up your arms by moving them.
There should be an interval of about two hours between water treading and the arm bath.
