What is Halotherapy?

Halotherapy, or dry salt therapy, involves inhaling micro-sized salt particles in a controlled environment, such as our therapeutic salt cave lounge. During a session, you recline on a zero-gravity chair in a salt cave room with a halogenerator, which disperses pharmaceutical-grade salt particles into the air. These particles mimic natural salt caves and may provide various health benefits, especially for respiratory and skin conditions, due to the 80 different minerals present in the salt.

Halotherapy supports conventional medical treatments and participants report mood enhancement and stress reduction. Additionally, salt settling onto exposed skin offers extra healing benefits, as it possesses antibacterial, antiviral, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties.

What issues can halotherapy help with?

Salt settling on the skin provides healing benefits by purging impurities, strengthening protective barriers, balancing pH levels, and calming irritated areas. Halotherapy has been reported to alleviate various skin issues, including:

• Psoriasis

• Eczema

• Acne

• Dermatitis

• Dry skin

• Rosacea

• Skin aging

• Skin inflammation

When pharmaceutical-grade sodium chloride (salt) enters your respiratory system, it diminishes inflammation, eliminates irritants, and clears the airways. This can be beneficial for the following conditions:

• Bronchitis

• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

• Cystic fibrosis

• Emphysema

• Hay fever

• Rhinitis

• Sinusitis

• Allergies

• Snoring

• Asthma

• Overall lung health

Who should avoid the Salt Cave, and what are Halotherapy Contraindications?

Avoid salt therapy if you have:

• hemoptysis

• pulmonary insufficiency

• severe multi-organ issues (without medical approval)

• infants under 12 months

• Individuals with chronic respiratory ailments or open wounds should also refrain.

Consult your medical provider if unsure.

What is the etiquette of a salt cave lounge?

Please remember that you're sharing the space with other guests, so please refrain from using fragrances, as some people have sensory sensitivities or allergies.

What happens after the session?

• You will be in the room for 55 minutes: 45 minutes of halogenerator time and 10 minutes to process. Dispose of booties in the trash by the door. Place blankets in the laundry basket by the fireplace.

• Hydrate well after the session to prevent dehydration. Relax and enjoy the calming effects.
