Kneipp facilities

There are 24 public Kneipp facilities in the town of Bad Wörishofen. These facilities consist of an arm bath, a water treading basin, or both. Three natural water treading basins are also located in the Wörthbach stream. Each Kneipp facility has a sign indicating the water temperature and providing instructions.

Effects of water treading:

  • Strengthening of the immune system (hardening)
  • Promotion of venous return
  • Relief for tired legs
  • Stimulation of metabolism
  • Relief from headaches
  • Relief from high blood pressure
  • Calming and sleep aid
  • Relief from sweaty feet

Effects of arm baths:

  • The cold arm bath is also known as the "Kneippian's espresso."
  • Strengthening of the immune system
  • Promoting blood circulation in the arms
  • Stimulating metabolism
  • Improved blood flow to the heart muscle
  • Refreshment for fatigue and exhaustion
  • Pain relief for elbow problems

During periods of drought, the natural springs that feed the Kneipp facilities may dry up. The facilities will then have to be shut down. We appreciate your understanding!
