Dear patients, guests and readers
      from all over the world!

This year our garden, which was redesigned in 2016, has finally come into
bloom: The medicinal plants are sprouting, the flowers are fragrant and
the prairie grass blows gently in the wind. Every day, we watch guests in
our Kneipp pool and on the barefoot path. Who would have thought it –
“water doctor” Sebastian Kneipp would have been delighted to see how
actively our new outdoor facilities are being used.

The many books in our new libraries in the auditorium, in the salon and next to the clinic shop invite guests
to explore the world between the covers. The clinic shop offers a wider choice of products every season, our
nutritionists have new rooms at their disposal and the massage department in Villa Larix shines in renewed
splendour.

To expand the range of sporting activities on offer, we have converted the tennis courts into a multi-purpose
sports ground. Guests can now play not only tennis, but also streetball, volleyball, football and handball. We
have also introduced new dance courses: Dance Flow with Barbara Glazar, salsa and Zumba will get you
moving to music. Yin Yoga, Mind Body Soul Days and Zen meditation provide an opportunity to relax and find
inner peace.

There have also been some changes to our medical team: Dr. Drinda has decided to pursue a new professional
challenge after 10 years in our team. He will be replaced as Head Physician by Dr. Eva Lischka, an experienced
fasting doctor and chairperson of the Medical Association of Fasting and Nutrition (ÄGHE), who has worked
at our clinic for many years. We will also be further growing our team of doctors.

On the 10th anniversary of our activity programme for younger guests, we will be offering a slightly modified
programme in summer 2018. It now comprises individual Activity Days, which can also be booked as modules
by all other guests.

                                               Whether in Marbella or on Lake Constance, we look forward
                                               to welcoming you back in 2018.

                                               And don’t forget, we are always there for you!

                                               Raimund Wilhelmi and Dr. Françoise Wilhelmi de Toledo
                                               and all the staff at Buchinger Wilhelmi

Be our guest
                  at Buchinger Wilhelmi

    Welcome to Überlingen on Lake Constance. In this brochure, we would
    like to present our Buchinger Wilhelmi programme, our packages and our
    medical services.

    Therapeutic fasting means going without food voluntarily for a limited
    ­period of time. This should be done under medical supervision and in a
     ­caring environment. Here in this very special place, we offer you the ideal
      conditions for doing this.

    Our concept is holistic and encompasses all aspects of your stay: Therapeu-
    tic fasting, basic medical treatment, therapeutic measures, discreet every-
    day care by our nurses and a wide choice of activities in the areas of physical
    exercise, relaxation, inspiration and spirituality. They are all interlinked and
    coordinated based on our experience and with utmost care, allowing you
    to ­simply let go and forget the worries and constraints of everyday life with
    confidence.

    The advantage of Buchinger Wilhelmi is that the many services in our
    Buchinger Wilhelmi programme are already included in the prices for our
    packages and the daily room rates. Any individual medical treatments,
    therapeutic measures, individually bookable services such as nutritional
    advice and additional dietary provisions from our organic gourmet cuisine
    that are not included in the packages are charged separately as specified
    in this brochure (subject to change).
