What is Dry Salt Therapy?
Dry salt therapy, or halotherapy, is a holistic, drug-free, natural therapy that uses microparticles of salt to promote improved breathing, healthier skin, better sleep, improved physical fitness, stamina and overall wellness. Dry salt therapy also helps alleviate chronic symptoms of many conditions in the respiratory system and skin.
How Does Salt Therapy Work?
Salt has the following characteristics:
- Antibacterial
- Anti-inflammatory
- Removes pathogenic agents (airborne pollen)
- Mucolytic effects: loosens unnecessary mucus and accelerates mucociliary transport
- Reduces the amount of IgE (immune system hypersensitivity)
Negative Ions
Don’t go by the name, there is nothing negative or unhealthy about negative ions. Negative ions are beneficial for the human body while positive ions are harmful. Salt crystals naturally create negative ions, so halotherapy rooms have high concentrations of negative ions. Negative Ions neutralize free radicals, revitalize cell metabolism, enhance immune function, purify the blood, balance the autonomic nervous system, promoting deep sleep and healthy digestion.
How often should you come?
For long term results, 20-30 sessions are recommended (depending on the age and stage of your condition). The sessions should be frequent; about 2-3 a week.
To maintain clear lungs, 2-3 month follow-up sessions are recommended for irreversible conditions. Airways return to their normal conditions and symptoms disappear after a course of Dry Salt Therapy in most patients. The efficacy of the treatment is estimated at 75-98%. Most people do 1-2 courses of salt therapy a year. They might come back in between for some top-up sessions if they begin to feel bad, like when they come down with a cold.
