About The Salt Rooms

Salt therapy is also known as halotherapy, which is a recreation of the natural microclimate found in the salt caves across Europe. In Eastern Europe in the mid 20th century, doctors noticed that salt mine workers suffered very little in the way of respiratory diseases in sharp contrast to the general population. More studies were carried out and the conclusion was that the key was exposure to and the breathing in of salty air. Salt kills bacteria, so reduces infection and inflammation. Salt therapy benefits adults and children, as well as athletes and animals. Many people who undergo salt therapy as a complementary treatment on a regular basis may find relief from a variety of respiratory conditions. The Salt Rooms provides various salt sessions dedicated for all ages, starting from the little ones of 3 months of age to senior citizens.
