Germany's Best Wellness Retreat 2022

With 7,000 guests from over 60 countries every year, more than 250,000 successful fasting treatments in total, and 100 years of fasting expertise over four generations, Buchinger Wilhelmi is the world’s leading clinic for therapeutic fasting, integrative medicine and inspiration.

The Buchinger Wilhelmi programme is based on therapeutic fasting developed by the clinics’ founder, Dr Otto Buchinger (1878–1966). This method has been continually honed over four generations and in collaboration with international university research centres. In addition to the focus on therapeutic fasting and supplementary nutritional strategies, the clinics in Germany and Spain offer a wide range of therapies. Above all, however, they are havens of peace and relaxation.

The Clinic on Lake Constance (Germany) is situated high above the lake with breath-taking views across the forest-lined shores of Lake Constance and Mainau Island to the snow-topped peaks of the Alps.
