Integrated Wellness Retreat
Hotel Preidlhof, Via San Zeno, Naturns, Autonome Provinz Bozen - Südtirol, Italien
7 Days Package (6 nights)
Retreat Highlights
- Preidlhof is certified a ‘Quiet Place’ by the Quiet Park International, a recognition of the silent beauty of its natural surroundings. Quiet is rare. Let the power of the mountains envelop you and experience the forest’s healing effects. Trade virtual interactions for genuine engagement and reconnect with life’s natural rhythms.
- Preidlhof is situated in the Texel Group Nature Park, South Tyrol’s largest, with an endless array of hiking and biking trails, fitness, and outdoor adventures directly accessible from the Resort. Alto Adige / South Tyrol is an autonomous Italian Region comprising a mix of Italian and Germanic culture. These contrasting styles and characteristics are very perceptible: a teutonic blend of efficiency and precision twinned with Italian flair and a more laid-back approach; introversion and empathy coupled with extroversion; and an Austrian kitchen with a love for Italian cuisine.
- Set within beautiful, landscaped grounds with breath-taking views, Preidlhof’s impressive 5500m² of wellness space includes the Sonnenschlössl with its stunning Rooftop Infinity Sport Pool, the DolceVita Lodge, the Sauna Tower, and the Spa Reception and Treatment Rooms.
- The Wellness VIP Lounge is mainly reserved for Retreat guests for breakfast and dinner. It provides a calm, white and very private space in which to enjoy the menu. Tables and seating are arranged with views over the valley and the background music matches the mindful eating experience. Food suggestions on the tables are all carefully considered and there is a strict environmentally friendly, zero plastic policy. At lunchtime, guests can also dine outside on the terrace.
About this Retreat
Originally from South Tyrol, Dr. Med. Alexander Angerer specialises in complementary medicine, complementary psychology, phytotherapy, homeopathy, magnetic field therapy (PAPIMI) and Traditional Chinese Medicine. A meeting with Dr. Werner Fundneider, who treated him when he was 10 years old for a rare form of thrombosis, was highly formative. The experience of being in good hands led to him wanting to become a doctor. After a humanistic education, he enrolled at the Innsbruck Medical University. During these years he came to understand that orthodox medicine is essentially fact- based, and therefore, it also approaches homeopathy. Today, with a good dose of irony, he claims that he is not a miraculous healer, but that he offers complementary medical treatment in the "Medical Room" of the Preidlhof.
Andrea Martinelli, an international shiatsu trainer, intends to bring his extensive repertoire of techniques and experiences gained after ten years in Ecuador to the Preidlhof. The expert has worked as a shiatsu therapist alongside drug addicts, children with Down Syndrome and blind people, achieving incredible results. His offer includes listening, touch and contact in the world of Taoism and traditional Chinese medicine: a philosophy that gives extreme importance to presence, careful movement and breathing, and in which the guest is never passive.
An experienced holistic practitioner, Martin Kirchler developed a high sensitivity to food additives with often severe detoxification symptoms as a result of strong antibiotic treatments during his childhood. Physical sensitivity led him first to discover natural food as a source of healing and then, manual therapy. Dao Yin Yoga, yoga and breathing exercises have been his great allies. Today, Kirchler’s refined sense of touch and his incredible intuition allow him to treat on a very deep level skin, muscles and organs. The treatment involves a continuous oscillation between diagnosis and therapy: for 50 or 80 minutes, the specialist keeps his hands focused on the body to create better conditions for self-healing.
As a yoga teacher, fitness instructor and nutritionist, Martina Huber guides guests to move in the way they feel good individually, instilling them with confidence in their own perception and intuition, or "inner wisdom". Growing up on a mountain farm in Carinthia, Martina developed a great affinity to nature and early on, this led her to working as a farmer and a restaurateur. Later, she trained as a health and nutrition consultant, discovering in yoga a lifestyle that made her stronger and more self-aware.
A Nature guide and landscape architect, Irmgard Moosmair takes guests to the most beautiful woods where they can bathe immersed in unspoiled nature, discover new paths and panoramic views. A keen herbalist, she prepares "tailor-made" herbal blends for guests and offers alpine incense rituals, inviting everyone to question "the narrowness of one's life created by an excessive lifestyle". Raised on a mountain farm at the bottom of Val Passiria as one of the youngest of eight children, Irmgard has always stood out for her deep thirst for knowledge and her insatiable curiosity. At a young age she worked as the maid of a wealthy Veronese family, and then, as a "bellboy" for various tourist attractions during which, she especially enjoyed interacting with the visitors. After an intense period as a wife and mother, she undertook in-depth study trips in different fields of naturopathy which enabled her to conduct workshops and seminars.

YAKU SHIATSU approx. 80 min.
Personalized session with the Shiatsu Master who, in his unique method, blends many years of practice, consistent training and continuous research in the holistic field with his particular
sensitivity. “Yaku” means “water” in the Quechuan language and this profound experience of regeneration and balance is inspired by its flow. The treatment is performed on a futon wearing
comfortable cotton clothes. More information available at the Spa Reception.
SHARIRA ABHYANGA & SHIRODHARA approx. 100 min.
High-quality herbal oils support the detoxifying effect of this full body massage. Removing accumulated Ama (waste products) and stimulating lymph flow, this massage harmonizes and relaxes. It concludes with a short private steam bath. In Shirodhara, one of Ayurveda’s most popular experiences, warm oil is drizzled on the forehead in a continuous flow, in slow, gentle movements. The treatment is tailored to your individual constitutional type and can be helpful for sleep problems, anxiety, headaches and high blood pressure.

We generally choose Heart Rate Variability (HRV), a specialized session which measures the body’s energy efficiency. It detects heart rate variability (HRV) and describes the dynamic rhythm of the heart.
SLEEP TRACK or ACUPUNCTURE approx. 25 min. + 25 min.
Based on a recommendation during the personal consultation, the retreat may include two sessions of acupuncture or a sleep track and discussion session.
