Falling into the fountain of youth once and never get old or ill. The desire for a long and healthy life is growing. The associated trends are called longetivity and healthy ageing.

Seegut Zeppelin is a special place: one with history, one with unspoilt nature, one of the few with access to Lake Constance, one that elegantly combines the past and the modern, one that is treated with respect.

The Fennel family has captured the genius loci of Seegut Zeppelin and, with the help of Plösser Architekten and interior design studio Linie Zweii, has created a breathtaking retreat.

If a conscious lifestyle with a healthy diet, regular exercise and relaxation is not enough, generalised detoxification of the body using Inuspheresis® can bring success. Over 100 substances are removed with the Ayus BodyClearance® programme. In simple terms, blood is filtered before it is returned to the body without removing vitamins and minerals. The so-called eluate, the filtered substances, are then tested in our own laboratory to determine the extent of exposure to heavy metals, pesticides, plasticisers and solvents. Incidentally, everyday products are also currently being tested for harmful substances in the laboratory.
