Dry salt can improve your respiratory system.

We are taking wellness to another level here at Sol Health Yoga. Halotherapy better known as salt therapy, is a natural, holistic, and drug free treatment. Salt therapy can be likened to spending time in the refreshing and ionizing salty sea air, which offers health benefits beyond just relaxation.

Halotherapy is an alternative treatment, where you breath in dried and ground micro-particles of pharmaceutical grade salt. These salt particles work to cleanse your bodies respiratory system as you breath it in through your lungs and absorp the salt via the largest organ your body has, your skin. Salt is naturally antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and hydrophilic, meaning it has the ability to thin and break up mucus. It can even reduce congestion, improve skin conditions and reduce or prevent conditions associated with inflammation. When the salt particles are combined with water molecules, it creates negative ions in your body which have been known to boost the immune system, elevate mood and relieve stress.

You might already know that dry salt is absorbent, acting like a soft sponge which can attract foreign substances in the respiratory tract. Try imagining the salt particles acting like a toothbrush, cleaning the build-up of foreign elements that can cause various respiratory ailments and conditions. Clean lungs are healthy lungs.

The History of Halotherapy

There is record starting from the12th century, where it was common in Eastern Europe to practice visiting salt caves for therapeutic reasons. This is said to be in response to an event in the 1800s, where salt miners in Poland discovered a modern version of what we now enjoy as halotherapy. Despite their daily work in mines, the Polish miners miraculously didn’t suffer from any respiratory conditions and were even unusually healthy when compared to other mining operations. Later, research began to show that thanks to the salty air the miners where breathing in, their lungs were protected and kept free from infection and allergies.
