Kneippen in Brandnertal
Treat your Feet to a cold Bath

Brief Instruction for Kneipp Beginners
With each step, the leg is completely lifted out of the water like a Stork and with the toes bent slightly downwards. Then brush the water off your legs with your hands.
The duration of the treadling must first be limited to 10 - 20 seconds, until a slight feeling of pain is felt - later the onset of pain will take longer perhaps 30 - 60 seconds.
