SALT CAVE
Halotherapy Salt Cave
Similar to a meditation session. Breathe deeply inhaling the tiny particles of natural salt blown into the air, while listening to calming music and focusing on the natural beauty of the salt crystals. The pure environment is precisely balanced with 40 to 50 percent humidity and 70 to 75 degrees F temperatures. The healing salt is in the air as the microscopic particles enter your lungs and body.
Each Halotherapt Salt Cave session is 45 minutes long and you will will have your privacy in the room for the session. You may choose to breathe with others (friends/family). 4 people can comfortably sit in the room in our relaxing chairs with blankets. Packages and group prices available.
A 45-minute session is equal to three days of breathing the natural salty air by the sea.
Breathe in the natural benefits of salt therapy.
The benefits of salt therapy are wide-ranging. Salt levels affect our cell activity, energy and blood sugar levels. A natural disinfectant, salt is antimicrobial, and antibacterial. Salt comes in empty processed forms or healthier pure sea salt (Himalayan and Dead Sea salt) that contain 84 elements and trace elements found in the human body. Dry salt air is more powerful than moist air. The negatively charged ions in salt may improve our health or mood. Inhaling particles may reduce inflammation and mucus in the lungs, improving respiratory conditions such as asthma, allergies, bronchitis, sinus congestion and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Scientific studies in Europe show that people with asthma and other ailments breath easier after halotherapy. The calming and detoxifying effects of halotherapy may support the immune, nervous and lymphatic systems. Additional benefits may be reduced stress and headaches, increased energy, and better sleep patterns. Salt ions purify the air and may increase lung capacity and reduce physical ailments for adults, children and athletes. Treatments are recommended to help keep the body healthy during flu or allergy seasons. Skin conditions can also be improved with halotherapy (psoriasis, rashes, eczema, acne). Table salt, sodium chloride, is dehydrating, but pure mineral salts have natural moisturizing properties and support the skin’s water balance and barrier function by attracting moisture to the skin. Minerals are necessary for cell function and detoxification, so mineral salts have strong rejuvenating properties.
