Salt therapy, or halotherapy, is a holistic treatment that involves breathing in microscopic salt particles in a controlled environment, such as a salt room or salt cave. The therapy is believed to have various health benefits, particularly for respiratory and skin conditions.

During a salt therapy session, a halogenerator grinds and disperses salt particles into the air. As you breathe in these particles, they travel through the respiratory system, helping to clear mucus, reduce inflammation, and improve breathing. The salt can also have antimicrobial properties, which may help in fighting infections.

Salt therapy is commonly used to alleviate symptoms of respiratory conditions like asthma, bronchitis, sinusitis, allergies, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is also used for skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and acne.

The duration and frequency of salt therapy sessions can vary. Our sessions last 30  minutes. For chronic conditions, several sessions a week over a period of weeks or months may be recommended. It’s best to follow the guidance of a healthcare provider or a certified halotherapist.

During a session, you may read, meditate, or simply relax while breathing in the salt-infused air. The environment is usually calm and quiet, promoting relaxation.

Side effects are generally rare and mild. Some people might experience a slight cough, runny nose, or minor skin irritation as the body begins to clear mucus and impurities. These effects typically subside quickly.

The salt used in halotherapy is typically pure sodium chloride (NaCl) without additives or anti-caking agents found in table salt. It is often sourced from natural salt mines and is unprocessed to maintain its therapeutic properties

Many people find the relaxing environment of a salt room beneficial for reducing stress and anxiety. The calm atmosphere, combined with the potential respiratory benefits, can help promote overall well-being and relaxation.

No, salt therapy should not replace conventional medical treatments. It can be used as a complementary therapy alongside traditional treatments. Always consult with a healthcare provider before making any changes to your treatment plan.

After a salt therapy session, many people feel relaxed and calm due to the serene environment. Those with respiratory issues often notice improved breathing as the salt helps clear mucus and reduce inflammation. Some experience increased energy and overall well-being, while mild cough or runny nose is common as impurities are cleared. Skin conditions may improve, with skin feeling smoother and less irritated. Temporary thirst or dry mouth can occur, alleviated by drinking water. Minor irritations are rare and usually subside quickly.
