Salt Sanctuary's treatment rooms contain thousands of pounds of Himalayan salt on the floor and walls. A halogenerator grinds pharmaceutical grade salt (99.99% pure Sodium Chloride) into fine, dry microparticles that are then circulated into the air of the treatment rooms. The salt acts as a natural anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and anti-microbial agent. As you inhale, it opens your airways and kills bacteria which boosts your immune system. Halotherapy is a natural non-invasive treatment for asthma and allergies. The salt that is not inhaled lands on exposed skin. Skin conditions are relieved by reducing redness and irritation. Halotherapy is a natural, drug-free alternative for eczema and acne. It is important to keep in mind that salt therapy will not cure a condition, but it will help ease symptoms and act as a complement to already established medical treatments.
