HALOTHERAPY FAQ

What kind of salt is used?

Pharmaceutical grade sodium chloride (NaCl) so there are no additives, caking agents or Iodine.

What should I wear?

Normal, comfortable clothing is perfect. Whatever allows you to breathe easily, if you want to keep most of your clothes on and are more concerned about your skin, be sure to wear clothing that leaves the areas of concern open to the air. There is a hook on the outside of the sauna to hang jackets, belongings etc.

Will I be covered in salt when I’m done?

No. You’ll just need to give yourself and your hair a little shake, check the backside of your shirt and you’re good to go!

How often should I book sessions?

Depends on what the concern is, if it is an acute issue, you will need a series of sessions. If the focus is on maintenance/prevention, then once or twice a month may be enough. Once you start, you will see how your body responds and what you may need.

Is it safe for children?

Yes. According to the Salt Therapy Association and published research, halotherapy is considered safe for children with reports that children as young as 6 months of age are safe. While it may be deemed safe, we always recommend to consult with your physician prior to use should you have any questions.

Are there any negative reactions to medications?

Studies have not found any adverse reactions at this time. Should you have any concerns or questions we recommend that you consult with your physician prior to experiencing halotherapy. Some are curious about salt and it’s known effect on diet, blood pressure and fluid retention. It seems that when you inhale such a small amount of micron-sized salt particles into the respiratory tract, it does not act the same as when you ingest salt.
