medications work more effectively and reduces the need for them.


Is Salt Therapy safe? Salt therapy is completely safe for patients of all ages—from newborns to geriatric patients. It is a 100% drug-free treatment


in the airways. Te pulverized salt is naturally antibacterial, killing bacteria in the respiratory tract. It reduces inflammatory tissue irritation and swelling in the lungs, opening the airways and increasing oxygen exchange.


For asthma sufferers, salt therapy


reduces wheezing and coughing, which calms breathing, making life more comfortable and asthma more manageable. Tis also prevents overuse of pharmaceutical inhalers, a practice that can cause bronchospasm and increase asthma severity.


For those who suffer from eczema,


salt therapy calms the itchy rash and heals cracks, which restores the skin’s barrier against infectious agents and allergens.


Patients with COPD and emphysema


have found relief in the salt room and typically schedule appointments year-round for maintenance.


Salt therapy increases the effectiveness


of conventional treatments. Cleansing the airways and decreasing inflammation helps


and has no side-effects. However, we do recommend consulting your doctor about any health concerns before undergoing ANY new therapy.


How long does Salt


Therapy take to work? Patients report improvements in just one 45-minute session; however, three to ten sessions are recommended.


Does Salt Therapy raise


blood pressure? No, since the salt particles are so small, you are inhaling a very small amount of salt. Salt therapy has a calming effect on the nervous system and could actually reduce symptoms of high blood pressure! However, we do recommend consulting your doctor about any particular health concerns.


What do you wear in a


Salt Room? Wear comfortable, casual clothing.
