Health, sport, leisure and mountain

Presentation

Enjoy the mountain benefits in Chamrousse!

In the current health context, well-being and health are at the heart of our priorities.
Discover how health and mountains combine for your best: to take care of yourself, your body and your mind.
Outdoor tourism like in the mountains is a good place to recharge your batteries and boost your immunity.
Physical activity, sport and/or leisure, conditions a healthy life expectancy and strengthens our immunity (the first bulwark against viruses such as Covid-19, in addition to barrier gestures).
A physical exercise is simply moving, walking, cycling, going to the gym, skiing, swimming... here urban and mountain practices are complementary all seasons.
 
The Auvergne Rhône-Alpes Region promotes a benevolent tourism through the slogan "reborn here" with a particular focus on the health theme, by proposing a free phone number "Advice Well-Being & Health" to provide advice and recommendations according to the needs of each: +33(0) 800 739 800 (service and free call).

The mountain and ski resorts such as Chamrousse (Isère, Alps) are privileged places for nature lovers, athletes, Sunday hikers but also travellers in relaxation and well-being mode (or even the health/medical curists because of its proximity to the thermal center of Uriage-les-bains).

In practice

The expertise and medical support of a team of health professionals gathered around Doctor Frédéric Saldmann, a doctor known for his various books dedicated to health prevention, explains us during the conference of "Rencontres partenariales 2020 Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Tourisme", that the practice of regular physical activity and good nutrition are the winning duo for our health.
 
Sports & recreation:
  • 30 minutes of continuous physical exercise per day "40% reduces the risk of cancer, Alzheimer’s and cardiovascular disease by creating a shield for 24 hours" (minimum 20 minutes before removing bad fats and releasing protective molecules).
  • 40 minutes a day allows the body to secrete a powerful anti-covid enzyme, reduce the risk of developing age-related degenerative diseases, and become an additional protection to essential barrier actions (healthy longevity)

Chamrousse and its activities
The resort offers a very diverse offer of 4-season activities for all wishes and budgets, to enjoy the Chamrousse adventure in autonomy and accompanied by a mountain professional: winter activities (skiing, unusual, off-ski...) and other seasons (unusual mountain, hiking, cycling, via ferrata...).

Nutrition: our way of eating conditions our life expectancy, by favouring nutritional quality over quantity with a ratio of "30% fewer calories for 20% more life".
We can think of our diet differently while remaining in pleasure differently, favouring natural foods. But also by diversifying our nutrition to the discovery for example of local products, by connecting with what nature and humans propose on the spot: the treasure of mountain territories whether it is botanical species, quality water, altitude with less pollution, exceptional wildlife or the know-how and know-how-to-be of its inhabitants.

And in concrete terms?

A study on the impact of the mountain on human health: altitude, conifer, waterfall... carried out in 2019 by the SPRIM agency and Dr Saldmann for the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region, highlights the positive impacts of the mountain on the lengthening of the duration and quality of life:
  • Reduced stress
  • Improved cardiovascular function
  • Fight against obesity
  • Strengthening the immune system
More information on this mountain study can be found on the Region’s website (only in French).
