Swissôtel Berlin Launches Special DeepSleep Promotion

At Swissôtel Berlin, stressed business executives and guests with sleeping problems will in future be offered the chance to try the DeepSleep Package.

The package is part of the Chrono-Health Concept developed by sleep consultant Dr. Michael Feld in collaboration with Swissôtel Berlin and available as an exclusive offer. The DeepSleep Package, which costs €60.00 on top of the regular room rate, aids healthy sleep – and may even help guests lose weight.

The DeepSleep Package is a science-based concept to promote biological, psychological and physiological regeneration by means of a special combination of effective measures such as light therapy, power napping, breathing thin air, aromatherapy, selected dietary supplements and sleep improvement with the aid of binaural beats.

The “DeepSleeper” starts their day with a 30-minute session in front of a bright light lamp (10,000 lux). Alternatively, guests who do not like to sit still can use the “light-to-go” made by Valkee, which is designed as a headset. Before breakfast, the guest also receives a power drink created by Executive Chef Danijel Kresovic containing a combination of herbs designed to have an energising effect. An aromatherapy session is also carried out using lemongrass essences and citrus oils. Smells penetrate directly into the parts of the brain that deal with emotions, bypassing the cerebrum. Therefore aromas can be a powerful stimulus and – if used correctly – can have a vitalising effect. Together, these three components result in enhanced performance, mood and fitness – enabling the guest to feel more awake and enjoy a greater sense of vitality.

During their lunch break, the stressed-out manager can replenish their energy reserves for the afternoon in Swissôtel Berlin’s PowerNap Lounge. Most people experience a metabolic low between 2.00pm and 4.00pm which can be successfully bridged with the aid of a power nap. The napping couches - “Inemuri Loungers” made by Eurofoam - were developed in cooperation with physiotherapists and sleep experts and are specially shaped for optimum power napping. The pleasant 20-30 minute rest for the body, mind and soul, combined with a relaxing colour and sound ambiance, leaves the guest feeling recuperated and able to perform better in the afternoon and, if done regularly, can even reduce the risk of a heart attack.

A 30-minute evening session of breathing thin air from a special mountain air generator in the PowerNap Lounge is designed to reduce mental and physical tension levels. Inhaling thin air causes nitrogen monoxide – which widens blood vessels and aids relaxation – to be released into the bloodstream, resulting in lower blood pressure and a pleasant sense of relaxation, which in turn promotes deeper sleep. These components are again complemented with a special DeepSleep Drink, which this time contains a blend of herbs designed to help wind down the body and mind. The late-evening aromatherapy session is based on calming aromas such as lavender and geranium. If the “DeepSleeper” also wishes to lose weight, it is possible to use the thin air device on a treadmill. Exercising in thin air increases the fat burn rate by up to 30%. Finally, to help the guest reach the DeepSleep phase, the normal pillow is replaced with a special “sound pillow” which plays sounds known as “binaural beats” which increase the level of relaxing sleep brainwaves, making it easier to achieve a restful sleep.
