What is Salt Room Therapy?
Salt Room Therapy is a form of alternative medicine that involves spending time in a room where special Himalayan salt is spread on the walls and floor. The therapy is based on the idea that inhaling dry salt air can help to reduce inflammation and improve respiratory conditions such as asthma, allergies, and bronchitis.
How Does Salt Room Therapy Work?
Salt room therapy works by creating a microclimate in the room that is ripe for healing. The air in the room is filled with salt particles that are inhaled and absorbed into the body, which can help to reduce inflammation and improve respiratory conditions. This is thought to be due to the anti-inflammatory properties of salt, which are believed to help reduce swelling and mucus in the lungs and airways.
