Use the power of water to improve your health
Dornbracht is a pioneer in the development of spa experiences and are aware of the beneficial and healthy effects of water. To enhance and refine this awareness Dornbracht has cooperated extensively with leading experts in the field. Their knowledge and experience combined with their extensive research and product development has been of great help in developing products that transform the bathing space into a personal wellness spa.
Dornbracht LifeSpa treatments are based on the principles of three pillars: Kneipp, Aquapressure and Sensory Shower. These principles are present in all water solutions and applications of the Dornbracht LifeSpa product range.
K N E I P P
Kneipp therapy, an ancient European form of healing, is a treatment to strengthen the body’s natural defences and the cardiovascular system. Sebastian Kneipp, the founder of the therapy, was primarily concerned with increasing general well-being, stimulating the metabolism and preventing illness.
Kneipp Therapy Affusions
These are water therapy treatments using applications of heat, cold through affusions, baths, foot baths and washes. Applied regularly, these treatments can help balance daily life: stimulate blood flow, increase metabolism, boost the immune system and reduce stress.
Arm shakes
They provide an invigorating start to the day or a great way to boost energy when you need it. The affusions are performed using the WATER TUBE or the Dornbracht shower or washbasin AFUSION TUBE. This application activates the blood circulation and promotes concentration. In case of regular use, it stimulates the immune system and benefits those suffering from low blood pressure.
Leg affusions
These are beneficial for relaxation after a demanding day. The affusions are carried out using the WATER TUBE or the Dornbracht AFFUSION TUBE. Regular applications with cold water can help to stimulate the body’s natural defences and immune system. It also accelerates the metabolism, prevents vascular problems, firms the skin, reduces blood pressure and promotes sleep.
Facial affusions
They can be performed at any time of the day as a refreshing treatment using the AFUSION TUBE LAVABO. This treatment works by stimulating circulation and firming the skin. Cold facial affusion is ideal as a quick fix if you are feeling tired, have a tension headache or are starting to develop a migraine. It also has a calming effect if you are nervous or suffer from high blood pressure.
The WATER TUBE and AFUSION TUBE have been designed using LAMINAR FLOW of crystal clear spray that envelops the skin in a layer of water, making it ideal for effective Kneipp affusions.

A Q U A P R E S S U R E
Dr. Christoph Stumpe – Director of the Shen Men Institut in Düsseldorf and sports science graduate – has developed Aquapressure (a home hydromassage) together with Dornbracht.
In Aquapressure we use parts of the body such as the thumb, fingers, palm of the hand or elbow to exert pressure on meridians and acupuncture points to achieve the desired effect. In Aquapressure, this is done by water pressure. At the relevant points and meridians, the water pressure increases the blood circulation in the skin and muscles, especially in combination with heat. Aquapressure helps to release blockages, muscle tension and strengthens the immune system.
Cervical massage
Ideal after sport or to end the day on an even keel.
In this application you can adjust the pressure and temperature slightly upwards or downwards: but avoid maximum temperatures.
Massage for back
For a horizontal relaxing massage it is best to apply it in the evening to relax the back muscles and relieve tension. For a revitalising vertical massage, it is best applied in the morning to activate the cervical and back muscles and provide energy.

The Sensory Shower concept is more aligned with the concept of wellness and, in turn, associated with health. Michael Neumayr, designer and product developer, has collaborated with Dornbracht in the development of AQUAMOON within the LifeSpa concept. A cascade shower system with such a reduced form language that it blends into the architecture of the space and merges with it. Four newly developed jet types allow us to experience water more intensely than ever before: sensory showers that envelop us, refresh us and fill us with energy.
