    Nature has provided usgenerously with everything we

    need to remain in good health.

    Water Water is an ideal conductor of heat and cold and as such forms the core of thefamous Kneipp-Kur. Practiced at home, the alternating hot and cold water showerswill stimulate your circulation and get your bodys immune defense system in top form.

    Plants The theory of the healing effects of specially selected herbs and plants is the

    result of thousands of years of experience. Kneipp has always set great store by highconcentrations of natural plant extracts in its formulas and products for your health.

    Exercise Regular physical exercise (preferably outdoors) without the pressure ofcompetition noticeably improves your general sense of well-being. It revitalizes theentire organism and strengthens the bodys natural immune defenses.

    Nutrition A balanced diet is the foundation of a healthy and active life. This doesnot mean following diets and nutrition plans but rather consciously enjoying avaried and balanced diet.

    Balance A balanced lifestyle the basis for a healthy, active, and satisfying life.Water, plants, exercise, and nutrition: Each of these elements contributes uniquelyto your health and enjoyment of life. Yet, according to Sebastian Kneipp, it is theinteraction of all four elements that keeps the body and spirit in equilibrium.

    Based on this conviction, Sebastian Kneipp (1821-1897), a naturopath and priest, created a lifephilosophy that sees man going about his daily habits and routines in his natural habitat as aninseparable entity. Sebastian Kneipps holistic approach is still of groundbreaking relevance.

    The Kneipp Plant Reference Chart

    It was Sebastian Kneipp who not only revived the century-old knowledge about herbal remedies, butalso integrated it as one of the Five Pillars of his teachings.

    At the end of the 19th century, mild medical plants were about to be f orgotten due to the powerfulsuccesses chemical drugs had started to achieve.

    Via his books and lectures, but especially through his successful healings, Sebastian Kneipp spread theinsight of both traditional medicine and the knowledge he acquired within the monastery walls. Hewished for the old, and well-known plants to achieve new eminence.

    His wish came true, as plant-based supplements are highly regarded and accepted today.

    Herbs, mild yet ef fective, have proven to be a natural remedy against everyday aches and pains. Theymay even help ease the pains of chronic diseases, and they promote recovery after illnesses. Theyhave also achieved an increasing relevance in modern-day preventive medicine.

    Duration:

    The perfect duration for a bath is between ten

    and twenty minutes. The body needs sometime to absorb the warmth of the water andthe bath additives effects.If the duration of a bath is too long, skin andcirculation are stressed.

    Bath Additives:

    Increase the positive effects of warm baths byadding bath additives based on high-valuable natural oils.Re-fattening oils, e.g. Almond blossom andMacadamia, recondition skin. Essential oils, onthe other side, have multifarious effects fromrelaxing to invigorating.

    Bath Additives Based on Essential Oils

    Essential oils have proven their worth with manufacturing of high-quality bath and body careproducts. Essential oils, quite contrary to fatty oils, are volatile scents which are isolated from

    plants or parts, e.g. blossom, leaf, bark, husk, resin, or root. Despitethe word oil, which is always associated with being oily orgreasy, essential oils are non-fattening. Essential oils canaffect body, mind and soul in many different ways. Theyrelax, revitalize, harmonize, promote concentration andstimulate the senses. Essential oils are scent oils only. Theytherefore shouldnt be applied directly and undiluted onto skinas they can cause skin-irritations. Essential oils offer numerousdifferent applications: They can be found in perfume or, once theyare mixed with fatty base-oils, in massage oils, bath oils and ointments.Additionally, they can be used for aromatherapy.

    Kneipp Natures Expert

    This is how you should treat dry skin:In order to treat dry skin properly, the skinbarrier needs to be improved using a suitablecleansing product. Mild, nourishing creamsavoid further drying out of skin. Productscontaining essential fatty acids and cell-protecting vitamin combinations help skinregenerate.

    This is how you recognize dry skin:Dry skin has fine pores, often feels tight and canbecome rough and cracked. It lacks moistureand fat. This is how the natural skin barrieris disturbed and how it loses more and moremoisture. Dry skin can be caused by heredity ordue to age. A high variation in temperature,excessive sun-exposure and an incorrect skin-care regimen can dry out skin additionally.

    Since 1891, Kneipp has been manufacturingcontemporary products for health and well-being.Botanical competence and pharmaceutical expe-rience, state-of-the-art production techniquesas well as carefully conducted scientific checksanswer for its quality which has been proven forgenerations.Kneipp is one of the leading providers ofeffective body care, nutritional supplements andbathing products. We offer the consumer uniquelyeffective, innovative and natural concepts forhealth and well-being based on the holisticphilosophy of Sebastian Kneipp.

    Sebastian Kneipps famous holistic philosophyhas become more than just a contemporary life-concept. In fact, it is the basis for all of Kneipp-Werkes effective face and body care products.Due to its botanical competence andpharmaceutical experience, Kneipp has becomethe problem solver in terms of skin.Characteristic for Kneipp body care products istheir confirmed skin-compatibilty andscientifically proven medicinal effect throughnatures powers.

    KNEIPP SKINCARE-TIPBody oil is by far more fatty than body lotion. Usage therefore dependson the skin type. Dry skin and dry skin are not always the same. One candifferentiate between low-fat/dry and low-moisture/dry. Body oil is verysuitable for low-fat-dry/skin, whereas low-moisture/dry skin requiresbody lotion. We, however, recommend the following: Apply body oildirectly after a shower or bath to still damp skin. Body lotion is verysuitable for your daily skincare regimen.

    Dry Skin and How It Should Be Treated

    Sensitive Skin and How It Should Be Treated

    This is how you should treat sensitive skin:

    Sensitive skin doesnt do well with stress,hormonal changes and an incorrect or exces-sive skin care-regimen. Rather than randomapplications with cream, or frequent baths,

    it is recommended to pamper skin with less,however, more powerful active ingredients tosoothe and moisturize skin.

    This is how your recognize sensitive skin:

    Sensitive skin is prone to redness, itching andburning. Especially fair skin types are affected.The problem: Sensitive skin lacks the potencyto defend itself. Sensitive skin disposes of an

    extremely thin corneal layer and hyper-sensi-tive nerve endings; its threshold is extremelylow. Sensitive skin can be caused by heredity,age or climate.

    Skin is the bodys largest organ. It therefore requires a lot of attention and special care. At the age

    of 25, skin begins to start losing moisture. Additionally, frequent showers, stress and environmental

    influences damage the skins natural protective layer and increase moisture loss.

    However, Mother Nature can help: Valuable fatty plant oils are essential in daily bodycare. Oils, suchas almond oil and grape seed oil, contain high amounts of essential fatty acids and vitamin E.

    As natural oils structure of fatty acids is very similar to that of the human skin, they are being ab-

    sorbed especially well by the skin. Plant-based oils balance the skins moisture loss naturally, leaving

    skin feeling soft and smooth.

    Mineral oils (e. g. paraffin oil, silicone oil) are by-products of kerosene

    processing. They barely penetrate the skin, but rather build a

    barrier, hindering the skins natural balance.

    Kneipp products do not contain mineral oils. They are manufac-

    tured with plant-based oils only!

    The Power of Aromas and ScentsIt has been well-known that certain scentshave an effect on the humans physical andmental well-being. For many thousands ofyears, plant-based oils and essences havebeen used for sensual, cosmetic, medical ormythological applications. And up to thisday, they still delight in actuality andpopularity. In the meanwhile, there has beenscientific knowledge concerning the effectsof aromas and scents. Is has already beenverified that they work via the limbic system

    of the brain. Because it is here, whereemotional feelings and scents are perceived,and sentiments regulated.

    Traditionally, essential oils are used in scent-diffusers, bath additives, massage oils, orherbal pillows. However, they also have ameaningful use in bodycare products whichare used on a daily basis. Just like the twonew Kneipp Natural Skincare-seriesJasmine & Argan Oil and Lemongrass &Olive. The high-valuable essential oils ofdifferent products within the series unfoldtheir effects during application. Thus, thepleasant scent combined with warm water isspread during a shower, or when BodyLotion or Body Oil is massaged into skin.

    natural skincare keeps meeting the highest qualitative requirements. TheNATRUE-seal easily identifies high-quality natural skincare worldwide. Itis not profit-oriented, but rather aims at one target: To strengthen theconsumers trustfulness in true bio- and natural skincare.

Essential oils are obtained bysteam distilling plant parts or pressing peels(e.g. some citrus varieties). Kneippcurrently uses approx. 150 essential oils.

    Whats the difference between essential

    and fatty oils?

    Essential oils, quite the contrary to fatty oils, arevolatile scents which are predominantly isolated fromplants or plant-parts, such as blossom, leaf, bark, husk,resin, stem or root, through steam distillation. Theyare not re-fattening, although we usually assume thisbecause of the word oil. Essential oils offer numerousdifferent areas of application: They are used in perfume,or mixed with fatty basic oils to serve as massage oil,bath oil and ointments. They, however, can also beused as an aromatherapy-oil, to be used in a stove.Essential oils can influence body, mind and soul in dif-ferent ways: They calm, invigorate, relax, they promoteconcentration and inspire the senses.Fatty plant-oils are usually won through pressing offruit and seeds. They have become irreplaceable in theutilization of every-day bodycare products, such asbody wash, body lotion, body oil and bath additives.Thus, plant-based oils, like grape seed oil or almond oil,contain high amounts of essential fatty acids, vitaminsand minerals. Since the fatty acid-structure of naturaloils is very similar to the human bodyskin, they areexceptionally well tolerated and absorbed. Plant-basedoils balance moisture loss of skin naturally; the skinbecomes soft and smooth.

    suitable for whirlpools?

    From experience, whirlpool manufacturers usuallyexclusively recommend products which were espe-cially modulated to their system. They are markedby a round seal saying Suitable for whirlpools onthe front of the packaging, e.g. our Kneipp MineralBath Salts.Certain products, e.g. our Kneipp Almond BlossomMoisture Bath, which has a high content of natu-rally fatty oils to additionally smooth and pamperskin, can clog the pipe system. This can easily resultin a functional disorder. Every manufacturer ofwhirlpools uses different kinds of material in theirmanufacture of gasket and pipe systems. Therefore,we unfortunately cannot give any advice on howto clean the pool. Please check with your whirlpool-manufacturer prior to adding any Kneipp additives.
