F.X. Mayr Therapy at Buff Medical Resort: Health starts in the intestines

In modern medicine, there is an increasing focus on one finding: A healthy intestine is the basis for holistic well-being.

At Buff Medical Resort on Lake Constance, this philosophy is implemented at the highest level with the renowned F.X. Mayr Therapy — a treatment method that understands and treats the intestines as the root of our health.

The intestine — our second brain

“The intestine is a true marvel and is referred to as our 'second brain, '” explains the team of experts at Buff Medical Resort. With a length of around seven meters and an impressive absorption area the size of a tennis court, the intestines form the basis of our health.

The figures are impressive: Around 100 trillion bacteria live in our intestines and control crucial processes such as digestion, vitamin production and metabolism. Even more surprising is that 70-80% of our immune cells are located in the intestines and interact with the microbiome on a daily basis.

This complex exchange has far-reaching effects — it not only influences our physical health, but also our mood, vitality and zest for life. Disorders in this finely tuned system can cause illness far beyond the intestines.

The F.X. Mayr method: Holistic and individual

What makes F.X. Mayr Therapy at Buff Medical Resort special is its holistic and at the same time individual approach. In contrast to many other fasting methods, this is about much more than just reducing food.

Dr. Sepp Fegerl, Deputy Medical Director of the Resort, explains the difference: “Other fasting methods are very often lost in nutrition, in their approach of rest and how to establish a proper cleansing of the body and mind. Mayr medicine is different. It is a physician-led form of therapy that uniquely uses all of our five senses for diagnosis and also for guidance in accordance with the therapeutic success of the program begun with the client. ”

This sensory approach enables doctors not only to lead safely, but also to provide guests with a deep understanding — what works well, what doesn't work well, and why that is the case.

Implementation at Buff Medical Resort

At Buff Medical Resort, F.X. Mayr therapy is combined with cutting-edge diagnostics and individually tailored treatments. The special feature: The experts can already identify initial changes before they develop into serious health problems.

The therapy includes several components:

  1. Accurate diagnostics: Comprehensive examinations provide a detailed picture of the digestive system.
  2. Individually tailored diet: A specially adapted diet that relieves and regenerates the intestines — and “completely without hunger,” as the resort points out.
  3. Manual abdominal treatments: Targeted manual therapies that improve bowel function and relieve tension.
  4. Movement programs: Tailored physical activities that support the healing process.
  5. stress reliever: Techniques to reduce stress, which can have a negative impact on gut health.
  6. Knowledge transfer: Guests learn how to integrate the principles of intestinal health into their everyday lives.

The benefits of this holistic approach are manifold. In addition to improving digestion, guests often report:

  • Increased energy and vitality
  • Improved immune function
  • Reduced bloating and less indigestion
  • Strengthened immune system
  • Improved skin health
  • Increased wellbeing and inner balance
  • Increased cognitive performance

What particularly distinguishes F.X. Mayr Therapy at Buff Medical Resort is the comfort and luxury it is associated with. Instead of a strict, hardship treatment, guests experience a pleasant period of regeneration in an exclusive setting on Lake Constance.

Sustainable health promotion
