People are exposed to pollutants, airborne diseases, bacteria, allergens and other irritating factors on a daily basis. Halotherapy is the only known method to cleanse and detox the lungs as well as invigorate the entire body with increased lung capacity and oxygen intake. Regular Halotherapy practice is an excellent way to aide breathing and improve your quality of life.
Scientific research has found that inhaled dry salt particles have bactericide, mucokinetic, hydrophilic and anti-inflammatory properties, which may help to reduce inflammation in the entire respiratory tract and widen the airway passages. Dry salt particles are also known to accelerate the transportation of mucus, the elimination of residual tar and foreign allergens. A clean respiratory system naturally results in higher oxygen intake, increased energy and an improved immune system. Dry salt is super absorbent and acts like a sponge attracting foreign substances along its path through the respiratory tract. The dry salt can be imagined to behave like a toothbrush that cleans through the respiratory system removing build-up of foreign elements that cause various respiratory ailments and conditions. Clean lungs are healthy lungs. Start Halotherapy today!
Quality and aesthetic appearance of the skin has an important aspect of how we are viewed by others and can have a profound psycho-emotional impact on how we feel about ourselves. As we age, our skin is the first organ to show the impact of time and life. Dry salt therapy is an excellent solution to improve the overall quality and appearance of the skin. Regular Halotherapy can be the most important tool that aids the healthy aging process of the skin. The truth is that healthy and glowing skin is beautiful at any age.
Scientific research has confirmed that the micro-particles of salt have a beneficial influence to the integument system (skin protective layer) and hairs providing healing and cosmetic effects. This increases activity of skin cell ion channels and activates electrophysiological activity that determines the skin’s protective properties. The salt provides pH normalization and induces reparative and regenerative processes in derma, increases skin rigidity, stimulates growth and improves hair health. The dry salt impacts the skin microcirculation and assists cellular membrane activity used in dermatology and cosmetology and enhances their effectiveness.

Late guests will not be admitted after the session commences. With the exception of emergent situations, we ask that you do not exit the room once the session begins.

Side effects.
While there are no known side effects of halotherapy, some clients may experience a "scratchy/itchy" throat or a tickle in the sinus cavity. Clients with extremely sensitive skin car experience a minor skin irritation upon the first visit, but this will go away rather quickly in most occasions and is considered extremely rare. For those clients who experience a slight cough, this is a generally a sign that the halotherapy is effectively working as it is loosening and releasing mucous buildup.
How many sessions are necessary?
While a one-time visit can be beneficial for stress-relief and relaxation, halotherapy offers the best results when practiced regularly. The benefits are accumulative with consistency and frequency. Clients with chronic issues will benefit greatly from visiting the salt room 3-4 times per week. Those just looking to incorporate halotherapy into a regular wellness routine would benefit from a weekly session. Halotherapy is a safe practice to utilize on a daily basis if desired by the client.
