Saline-Based Technology Yields Therapeutic Microsalt Mist Using mist rather than dry salt offers a superior salt therapy solution that allows the healing powers of the salt to reach the deepest parts of your lungs and into the small alveoli to improve the condition of peoples’ respiratory function. This provides your body with the maximum potential benefits and turns our infrared sauna into a healing salt cave. The conditions of heat and humidity in our infrared saunas are perfect for salt therapy. The salt aerosol is distributed evenly giving the optimal salt concentration for healing.
What is Salt Therapy? The powerful healing properties of halotherapy are earning the attention of some of the world’s most advanced medical institutions and publications. When we inhale this salty air, it can possibly help stimulate our respiratory system, reduce inflammation, fight infection, clear blockages, and reduce discomfort. People around the world using halotherapy claim to be free of issues and illnesses like asthma, stress, depression, eczema, and sinus infections.
Halotherapy is the practice of salt therapy that uses microsalt to promote a range of health benefits once inhaled. In the popular practice of dry halotherapy, the treatment is intended to recreate the atmosphere of salt caves with dry, cold conditions and a high concentration of micronized salt in the air. Typically, a halotherapy generator is used to crush salt into microparticles that are easily inhaled by the user. Halotherapy can also be practiced using wet methods that include creating a solution of salt and water applied in various ways.
The efficacy of salt for improving respiratory issues has been observed since medieval Europe by Catholic monks, and halotherapy might have even been practiced in ancient Greece and Rome. In 1843, Polish doctor Feliks Boczkowski published a treatise noting his theories on the respiratory health benefits of salt therapy after noticing miners in the Wieliczka Salt Mines had low occurrences of respiratory problems. Today, salt therapy has become a popular spa treatment and has even made its way into the average home through items like salt lamps.
Salt is antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, and can help with excessive mucus, pathogen agents, digestive issues, depression, skin conditions, and immune system oversensitivity. With all of these properties, it’s easy to see that incorporating salt therapy into your life can help remedy a range of health issues.

How does it work? We start with a 3% pharmaceutical-grade saline solution.

The micro-sized salt particles are then dispersed into the air for you to breathe in. We recommend a maximum room size of 10’x10’ (300*300cm)
What kind of salt is used? 99.99% pure sodium chloride (Pharmaceutical grade salt). It contains no fillers or caking agents. It comes from a natural source and it is naturally processed to remove all of its impure elements. It is the same salt that hospitals use and is the same type of salt used in Halotherapy research.
