Salt Therapy


What is salt therapy?
For many years, natural salt chambers have been found to be beneficial to health, especially for those suffering with respiratory problems. Salt therapies reproduce a microclimate that is superior to those natural salt chambers.

Firstly, the air is purified in a climate-controlled, insulated room, to produce a germ-free and allergen-free environment. Then, the room is filled with a very low concentration of dry salt aerosol. All clients have to do is sit back, relax, and breathe normally, enjoying the positive effects of your treatment, while the microscopic salt particles work their naturally cleansing magic on your remotest airways and bronchial tubes.

Salt therapy can be used on its own or as a complementary treatment to prescribed medication. Each session lasts 60 minutes for adults, and 45 minutes for children.

What conditions can be improved with salt therapy?
Asthma
Salt therapy clears the airways, meaning less coughing, reducing the need for antibiotics, medication and inhalers, and fewer flare-ups.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Dry salt aerosol acts as a ‘bronchial brush’ for the airways, hastening the elimination of toxins, reducing inflammation and restoring the normal transport of mucus.

Chronic Bronchitis
Salt therapy clears the airways, reducing breathlessness and leading to improved sputum clearance.

Sinus Problems
Salt therapy can provide immediate relief, and often a permanent cure, for sinus problems that conventional treatments sometimes can’t tackle.

Hay Fever
Salt therapy makes hay fever easier to control, used to prevent the associated symptoms of coughing, wheezing, swollen eyes and sore throats.

Coughs and Colds
This type of therapy helps to naturally and effectively relieve the symptoms of coughs and colds that are the result of a viral infection.

Immune System
During winter when we often feel run down and exhausted, salt therapy can boost the immune system and enhance your resistance to infections.

How quickly will I feel the effects?
You will begin to breathe more easily during the first treatment. As sessions continue, symptoms such as sneezing, coughing and shortness of breath are alleviated, and you general health and quality of life will improve.
