Chenot Palace Weggis and the Chenot Method

At Chenot Palace Weggis you’ll embrace the Chenot Method which is designed to work with your body to help you live a longer, healthier and more fulfilled life, given  your own body has the power to heal and protect itself from within. 

With the right guidance from the exceptional team of Western doctors and Eastern Medicine therapists, you can feel strong, physically fit, alert and energetic from a stay. At Chenot Weggis you can reset your whole system.    

The founder of the Method, Henri Chenot developed the Method 50 years ago.   His priority was to discover how repair the body and future-proof it from age-related diseases.    

At Chenot Palace Weggis, The Method is followed. It has five pillars which blend modern science with eastern and western medicine.   

1. Personalisation. With diagnostics and data physical measurements are combined with energetic biomarkers to score how your own lifestyle is impacting your aging process.   .   The doctors then want to provide you with knowledge and tools to sustain your results long after your stay.   
2. The second pillar is traditional Chinese medicine. This brings relaxation and recovery into the body.   Energetic doctors use acupuncture and laser therapy to stimulate energy pathways and meridians,   unblocking stagnation and replenishing depleted energy.   This is a very important part of the Chenot Method because it restores balance in the body.   
3. Chenot Diet. The diet mimics fasting as there are only 850 calories served each day. By reducing calories and removing proteins, the body is pushed into a state of ‘autophagy’.   This triggers cellular renewal and detoxification.
4. Then, there’s daily Hydrotherapy.   First, you’re immersed into a very warm bath.   This improves blood circulation and reduces blood pressure.   Next, mud wrapping increases the temperature in the body further,   making you sweat. The intention is to encourage the body to eliminate   impurities and toxins. It also remineralises the skin. The hydrojet treatment improves your circulation. 
5. Finally the Eastern healing techniques provide further rejuvenation, activating the parasympathetic nervous system. The therapists may target specific meridians to balance yin and yang. Down-regulating  yang induces calmness. Up-regulating yang encourages restoration with the sessions aiming for energetic balance. 

Your doctor will personalise your stay with further diagnostics, treatments, therapies   and technologies to build strength and functionality within your body.   The programs are not always easy, especially during the first few days as the body adjusts to the detox.   

The Chenot Palace Weggis team are incredibly supportive throughout and you’ll be brilliantly looked after in the most comfortable and nurturing environment, while you’re going through this process of physical change. The team want to help you sustain these new behaviours and put what you have learned in place. Everyone’s stay is completely personalised for a significant health transformation.
