Modern Mayr Medicine and Detox Clinic
About Park Igls
Park Igls is a Modern Mayr Medicine health resort in Austria, set on a sunny plateau at 870 metres above Innsbruck at the foot of the Tyrolean Alps. Recognised as a pioneer of Modern Mayr Medicine and in close collaboration with Innsbruck Medical University, it has been drawing guests to the village of Igls since 1908 — one of the longest-established medical wellness destinations in the Alps.
The method places the gut at the centre of health. Every guest is assigned a personal Mayr doctor from arrival, who carries out an initial examination and uses the results to prescribe the dietary plan, therapies and daily schedule for the stay. The programme builds across six principles — cleansing, rest, education, substitution, exercise and self-discovery — with the aim of lasting change rather than a short-term fix.

Modern Mayr Medicine
Modern Mayr Medicine builds on the work of Austrian physician Dr Franz Xaver Mayr, who identified the gut as the root cause of many conditions in modern life. At Park Igls — recognised as a pioneer of the method and in collaboration with Innsbruck Medical University — those principles have been continuously developed into a contemporary clinical discipline working across six principles: cleansing, rest, education, substitution, exercise and self-discovery.
Every stay begins with a detailed initial examination by a personal Mayr doctor, who prescribes the dietary plan, therapies and daily schedule that follow. Central to every programme is the manual abdominal treatment — the foundation of the Mayr method — which works alongside Mayr cuisine, daily Kneipp therapy and alkaline-rich broth to support the cleansing and regeneration of the digestive system.
Hotel Facilities
Park Igls is set within its own parkland above Innsbruck, with panoramic views across the Tyrolean Alps and the Patscherkofel mountain rising directly behind. A light-filled indoor pool, panoramic gym and fitness studio are available for swimming, guided movement and therapeutic exercise. The hotel park has a Kneipp path, sunbathing lawn and walking trails running through it, with Nordic walking routes and hiking paths starting from the door.
Indoors there is a library, lounge areas with a fireplace corner, a billiard room and a tea bar serving herbal infusions and alkaline vegetable broth through the day. Evening talks on health, ageing research and Modern Mayr Medicine run in the seminar room, and occasional excursions to Innsbruck — for culture, theatre or shopping — are organised for guests wanting to explore.
Wellness Facilities
The spa at Park Igls includes a Finnish sauna at 85-90°C, an organic sauna at 60°C, a clothed textile sauna, a steam room, an infrared cabin and a hydrotherapy pool, alongside quiet relaxation areas. A Kneipp path runs through the hotel park for daily contrast therapy — one of the inclusions in every programme.
The medical facilities cover diagnostics, physiotherapy, health psychology and specialist consultations. Diagnostic services include comprehensive blood analysis, hormone panels, food intolerance testing, cardiovascular assessment, ultrasound screenings and gastrointestinal diagnostics. Therapeutic options include colon hydrotherapy, IV infusions, ozone therapy, IHHT cell training, acupuncture, haemo-laser therapy and a full range of medical massages. An on-site beauty salon offers cosmetic treatments using Reviderm products alongside a hair salon.
Dining
Nutrition at Park Igls is determined by the Mayr doctor's initial examination, which prescribes the dietary stage and plan that runs through the stay. Head chef Markus Sorg leads a kitchen that has developed its own version of gourmet fasting over many years — light, carefully prepared dishes using fresh locally sourced and organic ingredients, with herbs from the retreat's own garden. Mindful eating is part of the method — meals are taken slowly and without distraction.
Eight dietary stages run from a pure tea fast through to full Modern Mayr cuisine. The earlier stages use crispbread, light protein and alkaline soups to rest and cleanse the digestive system; later stages introduce food combining, light meals and eventually the full gourmet Mayr menu. Alkaline vegetable broth is available through the morning at the tea bar, and mineral water and herbal teas are included throughout the day.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Park Igls and what makes it special?
Park Igls is a Modern Mayr Medicine clinic in Austria, set on a sunny plateau at 870 metres above Innsbruck in the Tyrolean Alps — recognised as a pioneer of the method and in close collaboration with Innsbruck Medical University since 1908. Every guest is assigned a personal Mayr doctor from arrival, who carries out an initial examination and prescribes the dietary plan, therapies and daily schedule for the stay — a level of individual medical oversight that distinguishes it from most wellness retreats.
What is Modern Mayr Medicine and how does it work?
Modern Mayr Medicine places the gut at the centre of health, working on the principle that digestive function underpins immunity, energy, weight and the ageing process. At Park Igls the method works across six principles — cleansing, rest, education, substitution, exercise and self-discovery — with the personal Mayr doctor's examination on arrival shaping everything that follows. Central to every programme is the manual abdominal treatment, working alongside Mayr cuisine, daily Kneipp therapy and alkaline vegetable broth to support cleansing and regeneration of the digestive system.
What programmes are available at Park Igls?
Eleven programmes run from 4 to 14 nights, covering detox, gut health, stress recovery, fatigue, sleep, menopause, immune health, neurological wellness, physiotherapy and preventative medical screening. Every programme is individually shaped by the initial examination, with the same Mayr doctor overseeing the stay throughout. The Detox Short Break at 4 nights works as an introduction to the method — most guests find 7 nights gives enough time for the cleansing process to take hold.
What diagnostic and therapeutic services are available?
Diagnostics include comprehensive blood analysis, hormone panels, food intolerance testing, cardiovascular assessment, ultrasound screenings and gastrointestinal diagnostics. Therapeutic options include colon hydrotherapy, IV infusions, ozone therapy, IHHT cell training, acupuncture, haemo-laser therapy and a full range of medical massages. A health psychologist, physiotherapist and sports scientist work alongside the Mayr doctors across every stay.
Is Park Igls suitable for solo travellers?
Many guests arrive alone. The personal Mayr doctor, health psychologist and therapeutic team provide consistent support throughout, and evening talks on health and ageing research alongside group activities give the stay a community dimension without any obligation to participate.
When is the best time to visit Park Igls?
Park Igls is open year-round. Summer brings long days, hiking trails and the Kneipp path at its most pleasant. Winter offers fresh mountain air, snow on the Patscherkofel and a quieter atmosphere. Spring and autumn are particularly popular for detox and renewal programmes — the change of season a natural prompt for the kind of reset the method supports.
How do I get to Park Igls?
Innsbruck Airport is approximately 20 minutes away by road, with a complimentary transfer available. Innsbruck Central Station is approximately 15 minutes, also with a complimentary transfer. Munich Airport is around 2.5 hours for guests flying from further afield.
