The synergy between cryotherapy, physical activity and spa treatments is at the heart of our ‘Cool Metabolic Boost‘ retreat, designed to offer a ‘shock’ to the metabolism. A powerful wellness cocktail to reinvigorate the body, stimulating it in particular with detox nutrition, hot/cold alternation, anti-inflammatory spa treatments, and Nordic walking. Also included in the retreat is the IUNIC METABOLIC diagnostic package to learn about conditions that promote metabolism changes and weight gain. The areas investigated are: diet sensitivity, metabolic capacity, insulin metabolism, fat sensitivity, Leptin metabolism, cholesterol and lipid profile

Metabolism is a process by which our body converts what we eat and drink into energy. We need energy for all vital metabolic functions (basal metabolism) such as respiration, blood circulation or cell repair. We burn energy all the time, even when we sleep. It can be ‘fast’ or ‘slow’ and varies between individuals depending on personal factors and lifestyle. Lean mass promotes an active metabolism, while lack of physical activity and fat mass can reduce it. An increase in muscle mass increases the basal metabolic rate, which is also facilitated by a diet rich in protein.
Nordic walking is a total-body activity that involves about 90 per cent of the muscles, enhancing balance and stability. Using specially designed sticks, it differs from traditional walking in that it has greater energy expenditure and cardiovascular benefits. Compared to normal walking, it burns 45% more calories and promotes weight control. In one hour of Nordic Walking, up to 450 Kcal can be consumed, almost twice as much as walking without sticks.
Cryotherapy: you’ll stay in a cold suite with temperatures ranging from -85°C to -95°C for a time interval between 2 and 4 minutes. Short-term cooling promotes a large number of positive reactions in the body due to the increased circulatory response of the blood and lymphatic flow.
