Therapeutic fasting

By Leukerbad Clinic

Developed by doctors, accessible to all

The therapeutic fasting program

Our medicalised therapeutic fasting programme was developed according to the principle of hypotoxic chrono-nutrition® for daily energy boost.

Developed in a medical setting to improve the overall condition of patients suffering from chronic inflammatory pain, the highly encouraging results have prompted us to offer this programme not only as part of the treatment of illnesses but also to a wider public concerned with health and well-being as well as the quality and sophistication of the services offered.

Patients who choose therapeutic fasting at the Leukerbad Clinic appreciate the importance of expert medical care in pursuing such a programme. Beyond fasting, under the supervision of an experienced nutritionist, the programme also includes personalised medical follow-ups and daily detoxifying treatments.
