Experience report F.X. Mayr®

Dr. med. Gerold Honegger: "Ms. Buschor came to us for F.X. Mayr® treatment after a stressful period. She had suffered from neurodermatitis since childhood and had been under dermatological treatment for persistent eczema in recent months. Her skin was reddened, severely flaky, and in some places, where the skin folds, she had deep, slightly bleeding cracks. Skin diseases are often a sign of poor digestion, so I noticed that the patient had a pronounced bloated stomach, which had pushed the diaphragm upward and was therefore also hindering her breathing.

During the treatment, she was prescribed a diet of easily digestible, non-bloating, alkaline-rich foods. In addition to other detoxifying measures, regular abdominal treatments according to F.X. Mayr® were also carried out. Relaxation measures and regular exercise were also important.

After a brief, easily manageable treatment reaction, the patient felt well and the course was uncomplicated. In addition to general recovery, her eczema has improved significantly.

The examination upon discharge showed a complete normalization of the abdominal findings as well as a normal diaphragmatic strand, so that the respiratory volume also improved in just 7 days of treatment! The patient felt very relaxed and more energetic. The improvement in the skin rashes brought significant relief. A further follow-up check is scheduled with me 4 weeks after discharge."

Today I would like to tell you about my experiences during my F.X. Mayr® treatment at the Hotel Hof Weissbad. My name is Ms. Buschor and I have suffered from neurodermatitis since childhood. For those who don't know what that is: neurodermatitis is a chronic skin condition that manifests itself in dry, itchy, and reddened areas of skin.

In recent months, my neurodermatitis had been particularly bad, and I was suffering from an acute flare-up. I had already been under medical treatment for six months—light therapy and cortisone creams only helped for a short time. The constant itching was very stressful, which in turn made the eczema worse. So, on the advice of a friend, I decided to try the F.X. Mayr® treatment.

As a connoisseur, I don't pay particular attention to my diet in everyday life, even though I know exactly how to eat healthily. I like to reward myself with something sweet or a glass of wine after a stressful day. It's a vicious circle: stress promotes unhealthy eating, unhealthy eating promotes stress, and this in turn aggravates the neurodermatitis.

The treatment helped me break out of this cycle and relieve and detoxify my body.

When I arrived at the F.X. Mayr® treatment at the Hotel Hof Weissbad on Sunday, I was given the special menu for dinner. I was surprised when I was served beautifully presented meals. Despite the restrictions imposed by the diet, I always ate well—fish, vegetables, soup, and specially adapted light meals were on the menu every day. The kitchen was very flexible and adapted to my personal intolerances.

I could choose whether I wanted to eat my meals at the communal table with other guests or on my own. Some evenings, my husband and mother came over to eat with me. There was no temptation from other guests to eat or drink anything unhealthy – on the contrary, I realized that it wasn't good for me. It's really a matter of attitude.

For me, it was easier to do without in such beautiful surroundings because I had other things to enjoy – for example, the pianist during dinner or a tea from the huge tea menu. It was also unique how courteous and attentive the hotel staff were.

One of the things I also really liked was the flexibility in the weekly schedule. During the treatment, I enjoyed various treatments to help my body detoxify: lymphatic drainage, acupressure, and Thai massage contributed to my relaxation and well-being.

The three abdominal treatments were a great experience. The measurements were exciting and the changes at the end were clearly visible. The treatments were pleasant and I could literally feel my intestines starting to work. Dr. Gerold Honegger explained the blood values very competently and comprehensively. You can tell that he has a wealth of knowledge and he took a lot of time to tailor the treatment to my individual needs.

On Thursdays, I took part in a cooking class for F.X. Mayr® guests. Despite my existing knowledge of nutrition, I benefited greatly. The nutritionist gave us lots of helpful tips—he showed us how easy it is to make a basic broth with leftover vegetables or bake spelt bread without yeast. For starters, we enjoyed the alkaline broth with bread, followed by fish with vegetables as the main course and banana mousse for dessert.

At the end of the treatment, I am proud that I really paid attention to my diet for two weeks. Even my colleagues noticed the improvement in my skin. I definitely want to take this motivation with me into my everyday life – to eat more consciously, to concentrate on my food, and to be present in the here and now.

I definitely plan to repeat this treatment regularly in the future to relieve my body and stay on track. I am grateful for this experience and can only recommend everyone to try a F.X. Mayr® fasting treatment at the Hotel Hof Weissbad. It is not only good for the body, but also for the soul.
