Long alkaline bathing · Koh Phangan · at home · Bathmaster training
Minerals and carbonates in water with a raised pH, slightly below body temperature, for one to twelve hours. Not a wellness promise — a mechanism you can use at home or under palm trees. Or go deeper and become a Bathmaster!
Where to start
A free video, our courses or a bathing day at a bathing spot — there’s the right option for everyone. You don’t have to watch the video to get into the pool. Every path has its own next step.

Level 1 and 2 · Homebathing course included
On Koh Phangan
Half a day at the bathhouse — or two hours in the water twice a day. For getting started, or when twelve hours is too much.
An enquiry, not a booking — we reply personally.
On Koh Phangan
Twelve hours in milky-white carbonate water, eight pools under a palm-leaf roof, a Bathmaster on site, juices and a meal by the pool.
Several days in a row are really worthwhile.
Bathing worldwide
Bathmasters offer bathing in more and more places — in Germany, Austria and beyond. Find a bathing spot where you can bathe with guidance.
The map is a work in progress.
The principle behind it
pH, temperature, time — that’s all you adjust. You can measure all three. You’ll get the details in the free video or in our courses.
Carbonates get you to the right pH. Each rise in pH means ten times the potential and ten times the speed of the previous level — measurable with a test strip.
Slightly below body temperature, slowly falling. A hot bath relaxes you — the release process needs the outward gradient.
A bath works over hours, not minutes: the longer, the more effective. One to twelve hours — it all makes sense, and everyone has their own way.
This isn’t a concept. It’s biochemistry — and you can check every step with a test strip and a thermometer.
GuntherExperience it in Thailand
At the Bathtime bathhouse on Koh Phangan, you bathe from 8:00 to 20:00 in milky-white carbonate water. The water is both a privacy screen and a cocoon — you set the pH and temperature yourself, we hold the space.
Who guides you
Gunther has spent years refining the protocol of long alkaline bathing. The concept isn’t new, and the knowledge belongs out in the world — his mission and vision is to spread this knowledge around the world again. He has lived on Koh Phangan for more than five years and still guides guests at the bathhouse from time to time.
He shares experiential knowledge, no promises of healing. You take a hundred per cent personal responsibility, and in return you get a protocol that works when you put it into practice.

If you want to go deeper
The Bathmaster training is the step after Homebathing: understanding, holding space, guiding others safely — six months live with Gunther.
Bathmaster training
The expert knowledge for when you want to run baths for others — or set up on your own and open your own bathing spot without fear. 24 modules in six pillars, live calls every 14 days on Sundays at 10:00, a script for every call, your bathing buddy, a document pack, and a confirmation of participation when you finish. The Homebathing course is included.
Join any time
More than 20 people are in the Bathmaster training right now — and they’re having an indescribable time together. We share and help each other along to reach our goals as Bathmasters: to help ourselves and “properly” bathe away our issues, to help the people close to us with this knowledge — or to open a professional bathing spot.
On top of that, there’s the on-site course “Master Practical” at the bathhouse: the practical level for everyone in the training.
Voices from the water
Guests at the bathhouse and course participants — individual cases, no promise of healing.

I did the 12h alkaline bath, and at first it really took some willpower to set aside the 12 hours, but it was worth it! Not only did I seriously transform and detox my body in that time, I also found my way back to myself! In everyday life you take so little time for yourself, and there you can’t help but focus on yourself! 10/10 experience for body, mind & soul.
This alkaline bath is pure magic. The connection I felt with my body was so pure and so clear. I was able to dive into old issues that were deeply rooted in my body. The alkaline water allowed me to let go of everything that weighs on me. I’m very grateful for this process, and above all grateful to Gunther and his wife, who together guided me so wonderfully. Even if we are not to blame, it is our responsibility to bathe away everything that no longer serves us and isn’t good for us! I’ll keep coming back, because you can never shed enough baggage!
I’d like to thank you once again for this truly outstanding experience, which has been one of a kind so far, for body and mind alike. It’s really amazing how much baggage my body let go of. I’ll gladly come back!
Just wow! I met Gunther recently and was immediately thrilled by what he does. Of course I wanted to try it out, and yesterday I had my first alkaline bath session with him. It was a journey back to my body, back to my true self, and now, afterwards, my whole body just feels so pure & clear, like never before. I really find myself asking: when and why did we stop bathing?!!! It has so many benefits for the body, and for mind & soul too! I’m going to bring alkaline bathing back into my life now, and I’m almost annoyed that I didn’t come across it sooner.
12 hours sounds like a long time – believe me: the time goes by faster than you can imagine :) Gunther explained everything beforehand and, as the day wound down, shared all his knowledge. For me it was so so so helpful and a life-changing experience!
An unforgettable experience, definitely recommended. Thanks for such a great time!
It was a great day with Gunther. We were well looked after with delicious fresh juices, salads and teas while we bathed. On top of that: fascinating conversations with Gunther and the other guests. I absolutely recommend it!
