Salt Therapy can possibly bring relief for persons suffering from allergies and hay fever, because salt is an anti-inflammatory. It also removes pathogen agents or airborne pollen and reduces lgE levels which can cause oversensitivity of the immune system.

​

A visit to a salt room which operates a halogenerator, allows the client to breath in a saline aerosol generated by this European medically certified machine. 

It may also help to:

• Alleviate sneezing, coughing and shortness of breath

• Strengthen the immune system

• Clear mucus and sticky phlegm from the lungs
