Salt Cave Session – 45 minutes – All ages – $27
APPOINTMENTS & CHECK IN
Clients relax in comfortable lounge chairs upon entering, while diffused lighting and ambient music help create a soothing environment. Your focus is to breathe, but you may also choose to read by the glow of the pink Himalayan salt, meditate, fall asleep, or simply rest and relax. You will find pure relaxation and tranquility away from your everyday stress, leaving you rejuvenated and energized.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR IN THE SALT LOUNGE?
No special attire is required, but loose, comfortable clothing is best. If you have a skin condition, you may want to wear something that exposes more skin. We do ask that shoes be removed before entering the salt room.
CAN I BRING MY PHONE IN THE SALT LOUNGE?
Phones and electronic devices are not allowed in the salt cave. The Salt Cave neutralizes the positive ions that we pick up from everyday electronic devices like cell phones, tablets, computers, etc. It stabilizes mood, decreases stress and prepares the body for ultimate healing. By bringing your electronics to the salt cave, it counteracts those benefits. We will provide storage for your phone and other personal belongings.
CAN I TAKE FOOD OR DRINKS IN THE SALT LOUNGE?
No food or drinks are allowed in the salt room, but after your session we do have refreshments available.
ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS FROM SALT THERAPY?
While there are no known side effects of halotherapy, some clients may experience a slight throat or sinus tickle which can be alleviated with gargling warm water. Clients with extremely sensitive skin can experience a slight skin irritation at first, but this typically goes away after the first session. For those clients who experience a slight cough, this is generally a sign that salt is effectively working as it is loosening and releasing mucus buildup and expelling it from your airways.
DO I NEED TO STOP TAKING MEDICATIONS IF RECEIVING SALT THERAPY?
No, it is fine to continue your medications as you need and as directed by your doctor. Since salt therapy is all-natural, it does not have any interactive effects with medications.
WHAT RESULTS WILL BE EXPERIENCED & HOW MANY SESSIONS ARE NECESSARY?
Some people report that they feel an improvement in their breathing, skin health and overall well-being after just one session in the salt room but, as with any natural healing remedy, the effects are accumulative with consistency and frequency. The benefits should increase and last longer with a series of sessions. Halotherapy is a safe practice to utilize on a daily basis so there’s no limit on visits. While no medical claims are being made about Halotherapy; clients with respiratory ailments/bronchia issues have experienced easier breathing, more energy, and better quality of life. Clients with any form of severe skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, or acne should also see quick improvements in the health of their skin.
IS SALT THERAPY SAFE FOR CHILDREN?
Yes, salt therapy is safe for all ages! Salt therapy is completely natural, and children often respond faster to treatments than adults. Children must be accompanied by an adult in the Salt Room and they can play with books, puzzles, and toys while receiving the benefits of salt therapy. Children should be dressed in clean comfortable clothing.
IS THERE ANYONE WHO SHOULDN’T RECEIVE SALT THERAPY?
Salt therapy is NOT recommended for individuals with the following conditions:
Salt can do wonders for your mind and soul too! The salt particles create a negative ion microclimate that has an anti-depressive and anti-anxiety effect. The first and last thing we do in life is inhale and exhale and our breath is our most critical physiological function, and one of the most powerful medicines for transforming overall wellness.
Become more intimate with this life force within! Discovering how conscious breathing can support your emotional regulation can enhance wholeness, integration and presence, and an awakened deep awareness of your human potential. You can optimize every moment of your life — and access your vitality, health, and intelligence — by embodying your breath, which is connected to everything around you.
