A doctor-led medical reset, not a spa holiday. The LANS Med Concept treats the gut as the centre of the body, and the programme runs on diagnostics, fasting and discipline rather than indulgence.
Lanserhof Sylt
The concept
Lanserhof began in the Tyrol and built its reputation on the LANS Med Concept, a medical programme centred on the gut. The premise is that most of what undermines energy, sleep and metabolism starts in the digestive system, so the cure begins by resting it: a tailored, low-stimulus diet, structured fasting, and the relearning of how to chew and eat slowly. There is no alcohol and no coffee on site. A team of doctors runs full diagnostics on arrival and builds the week around the results. This is medicine with a view, not a wellness package with a doctor attached.
The properties
There are four ways in. Lans, above Innsbruck, is the original clinic in the Tyrolean Alps. Tegernsee, in Bavaria, is the large modern flagship and the easiest to reach on short notice. Sylt, on the German North Sea, adds the sea air and a thalassotherapy element on an island. And Lanserhof at the Arts Club in London is the urban day-clinic, the right first step for a London-based guest not yet ready for a residential week. The concept is constant across all four; the setting is the variable.
The week
A typical stay runs seven nights or more, because the diagnostics and the gut programme need time to do anything real. Days are built from medical consultations, treatments, movement and rest, with the Energy Cuisine portions deliberately small. People arrive expecting deprivation and leave talking about how they slept. It is demanding by design, and it works in proportion to how seriously the guest takes it.

The TGC view
Lanserhof is the name we reach for when a client wants medicine, not pampering. We hold the broker relationship across the properties, so we can place a guest at the right one for their week and their calendar, arrange the London day-clinic as an introduction, and handle the booking that the residential clinics otherwise gate carefully. Strong for anyone blending a reset with business travel in Munich, London or the Alps.
