Therapeutic Benefits of Salt Therapy
Lung Support and Deeper Breath
Inhaled dry salt particles help reduce inflammation in the entire respiratory tract and widen the airway passages. A clean respiratory system naturally results in deeper breath, higher oxygen intake, increased energy, and improved immunity.
Stress Reduction & Sleep Support
The meditative environment, sensory down-regulation, and the negative ions produced in the Salt Cave help balance the effects of stress on the body, improve sleep, support mental alertness and clarity, ease headaches, and relieve lethargy.
Skin Health & Comfort
Salt’s antimicrobial properties help reduce irritation and support skin comfort. Studies have demonstrated benefits for conditions including psoriasis, eczema, acne, hives, and skin inflammation.
Detoxification
Clinical trials have provided evidence that regular salt therapy sessions have a detoxification effect on our bodies, resulting in improvements in various respiratory conditions, boosts to our immune systems, and the promotion of longevity, healing, and well-being.
Immune System Support
Salt Therapy is antibacterial and antifungal and helps with chronic immune system challenges. The dry salt particles dislodge and dissolve bacteria and pollutants in the respiratory tract. These are then naturally expelled by the body.

What to Expect
Cell phones, electronics, and jewelry should not be brought into the Salt Cave because the microparticles of salt can be corrosive.
Feet need to be in socks or booties that we will provide. Bare feet and shoes are not permitted.
Some clients like to wear a bathing suit while others prefer being fully dressed.
If you are seeking skin support, we recommend having as much skin exposed as feels comfortable.
We offer the option of wearing your clothes or changing into one of our robes.
When your session is over, you may notice a faint trace of salt on your lips and the slight taste of salt on your tongue. Any salt that collects on your clothing can be easily brushed off.
Q: Are there any side effects of Salt Therapy?
A: Salt Therapy is thought to be extremely safe. The treatment is completely natural. A slight cough or a runny nose is possible, but this is simply the salt working to remove mucus and toxins from the lungs and airways. If you have asthma, COPD, recent infection, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or concerns for your health, consulting your physician is always recommended.
Q: How many sessions do I need:
A: Based on your condition and symptoms, this can vary. For best results, the Salt Therapy Association recommends a series of treatments. Some individuals prefer to use Salt Therapy as a continuous preventive measure. We have found beneficial effects are cumulative so regular sessions a couple times per week are ideal.
