Allergene free - a sigh of relief

Speleotherapy uses the certain conditions of caves and mines to cure several diseases, especially respiratory diseases. The cave air is very low on dust, which could cause allergic reactions or asthmatic attacks. This reduces any kind of irritation, the symptoms of the diseases are reduced or eliminated completely, while the patient is in the cave. But that does not explain how it should have a longer lasting effect.
Supporters of the therapy tell us, the elimination of the irritation gives the body the chance to heal itself. The relatively high amount influences the autonomic nervous system and induces a deeper and more intensive breathing, which helps with the cure of any kind of asthma by training the breathing.

Your holiday hotel in Sand in Taufers, the Residence Hotel Alpinum, is a member of the Respiration Health Hotels since the end of 2007. We have recognized that negative reactions can be triggered even by minimal concentrations of allergenes, e.g. in building materials, colours, electric installations, furniture, upholstered furniture, impregnations, floor-coverings, detergents, cleaning-agents, bed-linen, curtains, synthetic materials and many other factors.

The local environment agency, a neutral examination office, has released a document and a certificate for our hotel after having done many different analyses. The rooms and apartments are not polluted by harmful chemicals, installations and allergenic substances and there are therefore no side effects for allergy sufferers and environment-sensitive people.
With the  certificate our house has got an important honouring for healthy living and you will get price reductions for the entrance in the climate mining gallery in Prettau- enjoy the beneficial air!

Breathe in and enter.....the gallery leads 1100 metres deep in the former mine in Prettau. It is mostly cool there with an average temperature of 9° C (therefore you wil get a blanquet), but the climate gallery is extraordinary: absolute silence, a sort of mystic calmness and of course the best air- with the characteristic interplay of relative and absolute humidity which lets breathe in deeply. Scientific measurements prove the special quality of the air in the healing climate gallery:

Almost ...
... NO DUST! The dust factor lies under the standards which define clean air.
... NO ALLERGENES! The allergenes do mainly not exist in the healthy microclimate of the gallery.
... NO POLLEN! The pollen concentration in the air is 1000-1500 times smaller than in the outside air.
