Forest Therapy is an evidence-based Public health practice. Guided Forest Therapy walks combine a specific blend of complementary physical and mental exercises in suitable forest surroundings leading to a lower heart beat, blood pressure and stress levels while, at the same time, the immune system, breathing and the overall physical and mental fitness and wellbeing are strengthened. (International Handbook of Forest Therapy edited by Kotte et al. 2019)

In Germany it is known as “Klinische Waldtherapie“, in Japan it is called “Shinrin–yoku” (森林浴) or “Shinrin-ryōhō (森林療法)”, in Korea it is referred to as “Sanlimyok (산림욕)” and in China people call it “Sēnlín liáofǎ (森林療法)”.

Forest Therapy is a medically proven and internationally recognized therapeutic approach with a wealth of health benefits. These include boosted immune system, normalized blood pressure, reduced stress, improved mood, increased creativity and ability to focus, accelerated recovery from surgery or illness, increased vitality and energy levels as well as better and more restful sleep.
