Halotherapy (Salt Therapy)
Halotherapy, also known as salt therapy, is a natural wellness practice that involves breathing in air infused with tiny salt particles. This alternative therapy is believed to support respiratory health by helping to clear airways, reduce inflammation, and improve breathing. It may be beneficial for individuals with conditions such as asthma, bronchitis, allergies, and chronic cough.
Beyond respiratory benefits, halotherapy is also known for its calming effects, promoting relaxation and overall well-being. Some people find it helpful for skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis due to salt’s natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
Whether you’re seeking relief from respiratory issues, looking to enhance relaxation, or simply exploring holistic wellness, halotherapy offers a unique and soothing experience.

Types of Halotherapy
There are a few different methods but the most common are:
Dry salt therapy. This type is the kind known as halotherapy. It is done in active salt rooms with the help of a halogenerator. This allows the small, dry salt particles to spread in the air and enter your lungs and skin.
Wet salt therapy. This involves bathing in salty water containing minerals, gargling with or drinking salty water, or passing salty water through your nasal canal.
History of Halotherapy
In the 12th century, the practice of visiting salt caves for therapeutic reasons, or speleotherapy, was common in Eastern Europe. In the 1800s, salt miners in Poland found a more modern version of what’s now halotherapy. Despite working in mines all day, the Polish miners didn’t have any respiratory conditions and were unusually healthy. They weren’t likely to get the colds or coughs that were common among other people. Research showed that the salty air the miners breathed helped keep their lungs free from infection and allergies. Over time, Eastern European salt mines or caves became popular tourist destinations. People from all over the world visited to inhale the salty air and ease their lung problems.
Studies have shown that halotherapy offers a range of benefits for respiratory conditions, skin health, and allergies. As a natural and safe treatment, salt therapy has no notable side effects and is known for its powerful healing properties.
