Climatic movement therapy in the mountains
Mild and sunny weather, great air quality, low allergen levels – the location of Garmisch-Partenkirchen in the Bavarian Alps regenerates body and mind with its favourable climate. Hiking can support healing in this case. The most natural form of movement can be a means to prevent and treat numerous diseases of civilisation.

Climate therapy – here’s how it works
Outpatients receive a prescription from their doctor for a so-called “climate therapy” as a preventive measure. After registering at the Health Corner and the first meeting with your climate therapist, you’ll receive your personalised therapy plan. And off you go into the stunning nature of Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
