The Bioenergetic Park, a gift from Nature

The bioenergetic path that runs along the Isarco river is an area that offers the unique possibility of experiencing, in an urban area, a very close and deep contact with Nature. A recent and innovative bio-energetic study of the park, has revealed the electromagnetic fields generated by trees and their beneficial interplay with humans. Some of these electromagnetic frequencies can have a very favourable effect on certain organs or systems of the human body and, in particular conditions, their effect can extend up to several metres away from the tree, creating bio-energetic areas that are particularly suitable for a people wanting to take a regenerating break. Walk along the promenade in order to find bioenergetic areas that help your well-being. Signposts show you the main human organs on which the energy of the trees can have the greatest therapeutic effect.

It is recommended that you stay in these areas for at least 15 minutes to enjoy the benefits generously offered by Nature.

Treehugging, a conscious embrace
here you can experience embracing a tree or simply lean against the trunk with your back. It is suggested that you remain in direct contact with the tree for 10 minutes, so that your body and mind can benefit from the useful energy impulses, thus stimulating the correct performance of the biological functions indicated.
