Prevention With Insight

Health is more than the absence of disease. By paying attention to early warning signs and strengthening internal balance, many complaints can be prevented—this is precisely where the Detox Medical Check at Park Igls comes in.

The concept combines cutting-edge diagnostics with the principles of Modern Mayr Medicine—for people who want to do more than avoid symptoms; they want to shape their health. Our in-house experts share insights into the process, the examinations—and why the gut takes centre stage.

“Our Detox Medical Check is a very special—not to say luxurious—version of the standard preventive health screening.”

What is the Detox Medical Check?

More Than Prevention

Our lifestyle today is faster and often more intense than ever before. Poor nutrition, lack of physical activity and chronic overload promote so-called lifestyle diseases—often without us noticing in time. This is where modern preventive medicine offers an opportunity: it not only detects risks, but also uncovers health potential.

The Detox Medical Check at Park Igls Medical Spa Resort offers a scientifically grounded, holistic tool—before symptoms appear.

The Check Includes, Among Other Things:

Extended Blood Analysis

Including vitamins, inflammatory markers and oxidative stress

Urine Analysis,

Pulmonary Function and Resting or Exercise ECG

Ultrasound Examination 

Covering the heart, vessels, abdominal organs and thyroid

Bioimpedance Analysis 

Body Composition

Individual Evaluation

& Therapy Recommendations by Mayr Physicians

What Makes It Special

Everything happens under one roof—no referrals, no waiting times. The result is more than a medical report: it’s a personal roadmap for preventive health.

Radiology & Diagnostics

Visible Health—Or Not

Dr Stefan Hiehs, radiologist at Park Igls, adds detailed imaging diagnostics to the Detox Medical Check. Common findings include:

  • Fatty liver—frequently detected at an early stage
  • Gallstones and kidney stones
  • Chronic intestinal inflammation
  • Vascular calcifications

Fatty liver is one of the most frequent diagnoses we make here. The Mayr cure is a very effective way to treat this liver-related metabolic condition,” explains Dr Hiehs. “The effects are clearly measurable: within just weeks, you can see significant improvement on imaging—the fatty liver is visibly reduced or may even disappear.

Cardiovascular System in Focus

Top-Level Prevention

Dr  Norbert Schauer, cardiologist at Park Igls Medical Spa Resort, examines the entire cardiovascular system as part of the Detox Check—using stress ECG, ultrasound and detailed blood tests. The goal is not only to rule out existing disease, but above all to provide forward-looking care.

Risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, genetic predisposition, excess weight or physical inactivity are all addressed with Mayr Medicine,” says Dr Schauer. “The FX Mayr cure allows us to influence these risk factors profoundly—starting from the gut.”

From Gut Health to Quality of Life

Gut, Balance, Energy

At the heart of the Detox Medical Check is the gut—not only as a digestive organ, but as the control centre of the immune system, mood, detoxification and even heart health. As a holistic check-up, the Detox Medical Check goes far beyond conventional screenings.

It highlights developmental potential and helps prevent disease. The focus is not on short-term diet trends, but on a deeper understanding of your own health—with wide-reaching effects on body, mood and energy levels.

FAQs

Park Igls places particular emphasis on gentle approaches such as the classic Mayr cure, combining bitter water, tailored nutrition and manual abdominal therapy.

A gut-friendly diet reduces inflammation, strengthens the microbiome and improves the absorption of vital nutrients—core principles of Mayr Cuisine.

While medically grounded, the Detox Check takes a holistic approach that goes well beyond standard health screenings. Through metabolic regulation, digestive relief and tailored nutrition, it can offer a powerful entry point into sustainable weight loss.

Detox programmes are safe when professionally supervised, as they are at Park Igls. Individual tailoring to your state of health is essential—which is why each programme begins with a comprehensive medical check.

To promote preventive care and long-term wellbeing, one stay per year is recommended. A check-up of this kind supports gut health while providing in-depth insights into your metabolism, cardiovascular function and personal risk profile.

Bloating, sluggish digestion, food sensitivities or recurring infections can all indicate an internal imbalance—focused diagnostics help bring clarity.

By activating the sympathetic nervous system, stress slows digestion and can upset the balance of the microbiome. At Park Igls, relaxation methods are therefore a key part of the therapeutic approach. The Detox Medical Check includes targeted stress assessments to detect strain early and provide tailored support.

Common signs are stomach pain, bloating, acid reflux or diarrhoea—frequently linked with tiredness, mood swings or trouble sleeping

Persistent stress can promote irritable bowel symptoms, inflammation and even autoimmune reactions. A holistic approach is therefore key to lasting relief.
