You only appreciate health once you lose it

Prevention is better than curing. If this principle were applied consistently, many people could save themselves suffering and money and enjoy a considerable increase in quality of life.

Mark (name changed) is a good example of this truth. With the help of a three-week stay at the Park Igls Medical Spa Resort and the application of Modern Mayr Medicine, his general health and performance improved rapidly. Complaints that he thought he had to live with were alleviated.

No time to take care of your own health?

The initial situation

As a successful investment banker who has worked his way up in the banking sector from the bottom up, Mark looks after the assets of others on a professional basis. A challenging job in which people tend to overlook the fact that their own health is their most important asset. Over time, ailments creep in. He learns to live with them. Loss of performance, daytime tiredness, sleep disorders. He quickly gets out of breath when climbing stairs and has little time for sport. As he neither smokes nor drinks and has no particular pre-existing conditions, he comes to terms with it. Until he fulfils his wife's request to invest time in his health.

Diagnostic & therapeutic measures

Medical evaluation on site

Examinations and laboratory tests show that Mark suffers from obesity and fermentation dyspepsia. In this form of digestive disorder, carbohydrates are insufficiently digested, leading to increased fermentation in the stomach and intestines. Symptoms such as flatulence, abdominal pain, diarrhoea or a feeling of fullness or discomfort after eating are the result. In addition, a disease of the small intestine is diagnosed (enteropathy syndrome), which leads to impaired nutrient absorption.

The poor sleep that our guest suffers from is due to obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome. This is a condition in which the upper airways are repeatedly blocked during sleep, resulting in intermittent apnoea. Typical symptoms are snoring, repeated waking during the night, excessive daytime tiredness and concentration problems.

The therapy plan in detail

  • 1 x Initial examination
  • 10 x Medical check-ups with manual abdominal treatment
  • 1 x Final examination
  • 3 x Bioimpedance measurements
  • 1 x Major blood laboratory test
  • 7 x Personal fitness training sessions
  • 15 x Full medical massages
  • 9 x Detox wraps with beeswax
  • 21 x Kneipp treatments

Why a Mayr cure is worth it

Return on Investment

Our patient adhered to the medical instructions, treatment plans and behavioural guidelines in an exemplary manner and was rewarded with improved health.

  • Over the course of the treatment, he experienced a rapid improvement in his general condition
  • His performance improved significantly.
  • He lost 7 kg in three weeks
  • His BMI dropped from 34 to 31
  • His waist and chest circumference decreased by 8 cm.
  • Mark is delighted with his success.

We are pleased that we were able to show our patient the causes of his symptoms and accompany him on the path to improved health and therefore a better quality of life. With consistent lifestyle changes, the onset of obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome can probably be avoided.
