As the year gently winds down, it is a natural time to pause, restore, and prepare the body for the season ahead. With the seasonal influenza period approaching, alongside year-end fatigue, travel and festive indulgence, the immune system benefits from thoughtful care.
Set against the peaceful shores of Lake Wörthersee, the Original Mayr Medical Resort offers a serene hideaway in late autumn—a place to slow down, enjoy a warm cup of tea, and unwind in a cosy atmosphere away from the demands of everyday life. Marking its 50th anniversary this year, the resort celebrates half a century of medical expertise and pioneering Mayr therapy, a legacy that continues to guide guests in laying the foundation for a stronger immune system, allowing the body to meet the season with resilience and ease.
The Foundation of Immunity
A strong immune system is supported by many factors, with gut health playing a central role. The gut and immune system are closely connected, while a balanced diet, adequate nutrient intake, regular movement, restorative sleep, and sufficient recovery all contribute to the body’s natural defences.
At Original Mayr Medical Resort, the approach is rooted in concrete measurements rather than general assumptions. A detailed medical history, BIA, and spirometry provide a comprehensive picture of each guest’s individual starting point, from which personalised recommendations for nutrition and metabolism are developed.
A Medically Guided Path to Resilience
At the heart of the resort’s immune-supportive approach is the Mayr Med Gut Health & Detox which focuses on the targeted regeneration of the digestive system and the restoration of a balanced gut microbiome, recognised as the key to a strong immune system and lasting health.
Combining comprehensive diagnostics, personalised medical guidance, and the principles of Mayr therapy, the programme includes medical examinations, Mayr Gut Health blood analysis, metabolic testing, and BIA body composition analysis. Therapeutic treatments feature Original Mayr massages, therapeutic abdominal massages, and herbal detox wraps, complemented by consultations in emotional health, nutrition, and beauty.
The programme is available as a 7-day stay at €3,200 per person (excluding accommodation), with a 10-day stay at €4,050 recommended for optimal results, providing a structured yet gentle path to restored digestive health and strengthened immunity.
A Personalised Approach to Nutrition
For guests seeking to deepen their stay, the Nutritional Diagnostics module (€380 per person) offers an individualised approach to metabolic optimisation. It goes far beyond counting calories or macronutrients and considers the metabolism as a while, including lifestyle, daily routines, training load, and mental condition.
By analysing eating habits, energy requirements, recovery, and stress factors, targeted strategies are developed to help the body to use nutrients more efficiently. Mental conditioning also plays a crucial role, as stress, sleep quality, and emotional strain significantly influence hormones, hunger and satiety signals, and recovery capacity.
Beyond nutritional diagnostics, the resort offers specialist support on site, including dermatological consultations and osteological assessments complemented by Echolight—an ultrasound-based, radiation-free bone density scan—all conveniently available in-house.
The year-end period brings a unique set of challenges from seasonal influenza and festive indulgence to travel fatigue. The Original Mayr Medical Resort offers a timely opportunity to restore the body from within, strengthening the immune system through evidence-based diagnostics, personalised nutrition, and holistic care, all set against the peaceful shores of Lake Wörthersee.
