What is salt therapy
What is salt therapy? Salt therapy is a non invasive, completely passive and relaxing form of alternative treatment that has been used in Eastern Europe for years. The treatment gives proven results for sufferers of allergies, bronchial and respiratory complaints, skin conditions and stress related illnesses.

A salt therapy session takes place in a salt cave – a specially designed treatment room built to emulate the setting and atmosphere of a natural salt cave. The walls, ceiling and floor are covered with real pure salt, which gives the room an ethereal and spectacularly relaxing quality – muted light shines beautifully from the millions of crystals, giving the customer or client the illusion of being in some fairytale cave. The salt cave's "active ingredient" is airborne salt – negatively ionised particles of pure salt pumped into the atmosphere by a machine called a halogenerator. The airborne salt is microscopic, completely invisible and totally harmless. Users inhale the salt naturally as they relax in the cave: the airborne salt enters the respiratory system, where it reduces swelling of bronchial tubes and tracts and can even calm lungs irritated by infection or allergy. Excess mucus is dried out by the salt, offering instant relief from allergic and respiratory complaints like sinusitis, rhinitis and bronchitis.

The microns-small salt also coats the skin, bringing relief and (if salt therapy treatments are undertaken regularly) even healing from complaints like eczema and dermatitis. Salt is renowned for its antiseptic properties and can bring a clear and healthful complexion after repeated exposure.
What is salt therapy suitable for? All types of respiratory and bronchial complaint; allergies; skin complaints; and the symptoms of minor and medium rated mental illnesses including stress, insomnia, over-tiredness and anxiety. Salt therapy offers a uniquely natural aid to curing all of these problems – known in Eastern Europe for centuries and now gaining common currency thanks to an uptake of interest in the US.
