In this connection we would above all point to the academic study “Profile of the Applications and Effectiveness of Alpine Remedies“ by Prof. Dr. W. Schobersberger and Dr. G. Hoffmann as well as the extensive investigations of the effects of stone pine at the Joanneum Research Institute in Graz , from which the following information on oils, plants and the effects of their phyto-substances are taken. At the same time we are obliged to point out that in all our applications medical advice is neither suggested nor intended. None of our product information and descriptions – not even the briefest outline – should in any way be used to undertake your own diagnosis or to regard natural products as a substitute for a professional consultation or treatment by trained therapists!
Arnica (lat. arnica montana) is used in natural
medicine for relaxing the muscles after
physical effort or during sporting activities, in
cases of muscle ache, bruses, stains, contusions, swellings, sprains, haematomae, varicose veins, accident-in-duced shock, cold-sores/fever alisters and acne.
Arnica can exert healing, disinfecting, stimulating, anti-infl ammatory, and germicidal
effects, and can also help, where the skin has been put under any sort of
strain, to regenerate the tissue.

Method of Application: treatment of the affected parts by the massaging-in of arnica
in ointment form, or by the application of arnica-treated bandages. When the complaint
is no longer acute, longer-term treatment may continue with arnica creams or
lotions. A general tip for good relaxation is to massage arnica products into the muscles
after every physical strain and exercise!
Essential oils contain the vitality of the plant in concentrated form. In other languages essential oils are referred to as “etherous” which is derived from the Greek route “aither” – scent of heaven indicating that it is something intangible or fleeting.
At the same time essential oils are very important as they are decisive for the scent of a plant. Essential oils are therefore also often referred to as the "soul of a plant". They reflect the personality and the spirit of a plant.

Warum reagiert die Haut morgens anders als abends, und was braucht sie wann?Milliarden biologische Uhren ticken in unserem Körper. Jede Zelle verfügt über ihren eigenen Rhythmus. Die Taktgeber bestimmen etwa darüber, wann wir leistungsfähig sind und wann wir Schlaf brauchen. Auch die Haut unterliegt ihrem eigenen Rhythmus – und der lässt sich für die Schönheit nutzen.
Aber Vorsicht: Hören Sie dabei vor allem auf Ihr Gefühl. Denn: „Die innere Uhr ist individuell“, sagt die Düsseldorfer Wissenschaftlerin Dr. Annette Mehling, die sich mit der Chronobiologie der Haut beschäftigt.

rheumatism, degenerative diseases of the joints and spinal column, osteoarthitis, osteoporosis, sciatica, chronic prostate complaints, circulation disorders, gout, skin diseases, disorders of the automatic nervous system, stress, and diseases of the metabolic and gastro-in-testinal systems Special plant hormones
present in the moor exert an especially benefi cial
infl uence in cases of gynaecological disorders
and infertility. The acidic pH value of the moor water means that open
wounds tend to heal more quickly. The gentle emission of heat opens the skin-pores
and improves the circulation of blood through muscles, joints, and inner organs. The
body’s own natural defences are strengthened and the process of self-healing
helped on. chronic inflammations can also slowly be reduced.

tissue and therefore tissue repair.
Sulphur brings relief everywhere where the body
is troubled by inflammation – or even just by stiffness
– and is also an excellent beautifying agent
for skin and hair.
In natural medicine, sulphur is recommended in
cases of asthma, arthritis, inflammatory processes – whether accompanied by painful
symptoms or not – constipation, fungal infestation of the mucous membrane, and pains in the organs of movment, most
specifi cally in the back. Sulphur achieves excellent
results in the struggle against skin impurities, changes in the skin brought on by ageing, acne, burnsand disorders affecting the health of the hair. The scientifi c
literature often uses the term “beauty mineral” to designate sulphur, since it tends
to regenerate tissue structures, restore elasticity, maintain the natural fat and moisture
content of the skin, and promote collagen-formation. It has a particularly marked capacity
to capture“free redicals” in the skin (with anti-oxidant effect) and tends to work
against the premature emergence of wrinkles (cysteine).

Sulphur has anti-infl ammatory and anti-bacterial effects and tends to dissolve horny
layers of skin; it is applied against allergies and sicknesses of the auto-immune system;
it regulates the metabolism, detoxifi es, and promotes beautiful skin, hair and nails.
This mixture of water and salt is the “primal soup”
of organic life, and a unique ocean of energy which
can exert an extremely positive influence on our
body not only in terms of the physiology of nutrition
but also in terms of healing applications.
Brine helps to support and promote the benefi
cial purification, puring, and deacidification
of the body through the skin.
Thus, brine is used in balneotherapy for the
treatment of various skin diseases, such as psoriasis, neurodermatitis, acne, aczma and skin irritations. It is also used to
treat rheumatic and joint disorders, chronic gynaecological complaints,
and for the general strengthening of the immune system. Treatment with natural brine also helps in all cases where heat
exerts a benefi cial effect – for example, in muscle strain, and spinal-column
complaints, along with other paints in the joints. Brine inhalations can also
help in cases of acute and chronic bronchitis, asthma, catarrh, hay fever,
paranasal sinusitis, and diseases of the ear.

Carefully manufactured sunflower oil is a great oil due to its high share in unsaturated fatty acids (linoleic acid) and its high vitamin E content. It supports the healing of skin problems from the inside e.g. with dry skin or greasy skin with a tendency to develop acne. An irritated, eczema prone skin condition will improve as cell regeneration is stimulated.
The high vitamin E content supports the regulating effect of the linoleic acid. It is an important cell protection agent which protects the cell membranes against aggressive, chemical compound, so called radicals. Sunflower oil is also perfectly suited to be used in skin care products. Source: Pflanzenöle (Qualität, Anwendung Wirkung von Ruth v. Braunschweig) (plant oils – quality, application, effect)

Fight ageing with one of the earth's most ancient minerals: Thanks to its specific crystalline structure and its extensive “inner” surface, zeolite is capable of drawing and binding, on a very large scale, various other elements to itself. Zeolite is a mineral containing natural silicon, and one of the world’s most powerful anti-oxidants. It has the capacity to exchange the ions contained in its inner cavities for other substances present in its immediate environment. For this reason, this natural, microtransparent silicate mineral can function as an excellent ionic metabolic agent, possessing outstanding properties of adsorption and absorption in respect of toxic substances in human skin and in human beings’ internal mucous membranes. The zeolite group of minerals also exert an anti-microbic effect and can be used as natural anti-biotics: Studies have also demonstrated beneficial effects in cases of neurodermatitis, psoriasis, acne, vaginal mycosis, oral candidiasis, and in the treatment of plaque and herpes.

Zeolite also helps to remove, slow down and prevent the ageing processes of the skin.
This mineral promotes and supports the activity of other substances, producing an
immediate effect when applied in combination with nourishing oils, plants, and water.
The wood of the Swiss pine, with its bio-active
powers drawn from limoson and other fl avonoids,
can bring about a signifi cant reduction
in heart rate. According to the latest scientifi
c studies a swiss pine sleeping system
can save you up to 3,500 heartbeats nightly,
improving your sleep-quality and making your nights more restful and restorative! Studies also indicate that beds made of Swiss pine
tend to reduce meteoropathic
(sensitivity to weather conditions). Mattresses and
pillows stuffed with the fi nest Swiss pine shavings, climatic pillows with planed Swiss
pine burs, and room sprays with Swiss pine essential oils – all these can signifi cantly
contribute to inner peace and a restful and refreshing sleep.

In addition, the wood of the “Queen of the Alps” exerts excellent anti-bacterial and bio-inhibitory effects, effective particularly against MOTHS and
in preventing mould and mildew.
