Ice Swimming
WHAT IS IT?
It’s swimming in icy water,
usually below 10°C, to pro-
mote health and acclimatise
the body to the cold.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
You slowly enter the cold wa-
ter, breathe deeply into your
stomach – and then swim.
First-timers at MAYRLIFE’s
ice swimming session tend to
stay in the 3.5°C cold lake for
five to ten minutes. ‘If you
start to shiver, you should get
out quickly, enjoy the mo-
ment of strength,’ says cold
expert Josef Köberl, ‘and
dress warmly.’
WHY IS IT GOOD FOR ME?
The frosty experience
triggers a range of physio-
logical reactions in the body,
which also have a mentally
stimulating effect. Regular
ice swimming is believed
to strengthen the immune
system, alleviate depression
and anxiety, improve circula-
tion, and reduce inflamma-
tion and stress. The cold
stimulus also activates brown
fat tissue, which helps burn
calories.
The MAYRLIFE team is
happy to inform you about
upcoming ice swimming
dates.
Austrian Josef Köberl, 47, is a
multiple world record holder in
cold-water swimming. In water
at minus 0.23°C on the Hinter-
tux Glacier, he swam 1511.5
metres and, dressed only in
swimming trunks, he spent
2 hours, 30 minutes, and
53 seconds in a cabin filled
with ice cubes in Melk, Lower
Austria.

Water Plasma Therapy
WHAT IS IT?
A ground-breaking method designed to regenerate and strengthen
health at the cellular level.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Electrical high voltage is used to generate molecular hydrogen – a tiny
molecule that specifically neutralises harmful free radicals without
disrupting the body’s natural processes. These processed water
molecules, some inhaled, others applied to the skin, work deeply at
the cellular level. The treatment is performed while sitting or on a
stationary bike, and lasts approximately 45 minutes.
WHY IS IT GOOD FOR ME?
The innovative therapy supports the body’s regeneration, boosts per-
formance, and improves overall well-being. It activates mitochondria,
increases energy production, has anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic
effects, and promotes relaxation.
The treatment is part of various programmes, such as ‘Classic 10 Years
Special’ (1-2 sessions) and ‘Longevity/Healthy Aging’ (3-6 sessions,
45 minutes each).
