Allergy friendly holidays
Take a holiday from allergy
The Schmallenberger Sauerland and the holiday region Eslohe are allergy-friendly communities. Especially for allergy sufferers, who now make up almost a third of the European population, we have optimal offers and accommodation. This service is guaranteed by the European Centre for Allergy Research Foundation (ECARF). Our guests can rely on excellent holiday conditions, as numerous measures on site lead to significantly reduced contact with the most common allergens. These measures include, for example, smooth floors, encasings, smoke-free and pet-free rooms, and a kitchen that is adapted to food intolerances. A healthy low mountain range climate, the specialist hospital Kloster Grafschaft on site and the possibility to visit the healing gallery are also noteworthy factors for an allergy-friendly holiday.
Healing gallery in Nordenau
The small mountain village Nordenau with the healing gallery is only 14 km away from Schmallenberg. At the end of the village is the Heilstollen, which today stands for health and well-being far beyond the borders of the Sauerland and is now visited by thousands of sick people who expect relief from their illnesses and complaints.
The
often astonishing improvements in health under the influence of the so-called "Nordenau phenomenon" have in the meantime been scientifically substantiated by the results of investigations carried out by a research group from Kyushu University in Fukuoka (Japan) and the participating Centre for Holistic Medicine and Naturopathy in Nordenau.
The spring that rises
in the energy field of the Heilstollen carries high-quality so-called "reduced water", which, as a highly potent free radical scavenger, provides general relief for the body cells from metabolic waste products (so-called free radicals)
Locations for holiday dialysis
Dialysis patients also want to spend a relaxing holiday. In the Schmallenberger Sauerland and the holiday region Eslohe, you don't have to do without safe care. The supra-local group practice "Nephrologisches Zentrum Sauerland" offers holiday dialysis at two dialysis locations nearby.
Fans of the fast pace will find plenty of room to indulge in their favourite sport in the forests of the Schmallenberger Sauerland and the Eslohe holiday region. Whether with or without poles, the well signposted and well-maintained forest paths of our region are simply fun.
Feel like increasing the pace? Then try speedhiking. Here ambitious crossers with poles run through the terrain about 30% faster than normal. Uphills and descents alternate constantly, so that pulse and breathing are alternately stressed.
Real relaxation in the fresh air. The trend sport Breath-Walk combines yoga elements, mindful walking, dynamic breathing and conscious movement. Each BreathWalk provides effective exercises and improves stamina. The effectiveness of the BreathWalk is constantly proven by studies. BreathWalk improves breathing and posture, strengthens the immune system, activates the acid-base balance and strengthens the circulatory system. This is how your walk becomes a fitness event
