What is Halotherapy?
Salt Therapy, also called Halotherapy, taken from the Greek halos meaning "salt", is a natural treatment that has been dated back to the twelfth century. It is the process of breathing in dry salt particles and is a 100% natural way to treat numerous conditions. These particles reach the deepest area of the lungs absorbing bacteria and pollutants and providing an anti-inflammatory and cleansing effect. Salt therapy is beneficial to your overall well being and it strengthens the body's immune system by eliminating toxins trapped within the respiratory system. Halogenerators are used to replicate the atmosphere of salt mines. It grinds the salt to micro-sized particles and then disperses them into the air, allowing the salt to travel deep into the lungs.

Do you suffer from seasonal allergies, asthma or sinusitis?
Every spring, allergy sufferers make the typical rounds with prescription medications, antihistamines and decongestants. Since none of these offer long-lasting relief and the accompanying drowsiness can be as bad as the symptoms themselves, an increasing number of patients are turning to complementary medicine, such as Halotherapy. Dry Salt therapy absorbs the pollen and allergens and enhances the respiratory system’s natural cleansing process. These treatments will also breakdown mucus in the nasal passage and airways and decreases bacteria and inflammation.
