8 weeks of Salt Therapy
Salt Therapy aka Halotherapy is a powerful, natural treatment using pure grade Pharmaceutical Salt in a controlled air medium that, according to studies, simulates the natural salt cave microclimate to treat allergies, respiratory and skin conditions. Salt is a natural and safe crystalline mineral and does not have any notable side effects.
Health Benefits of Salt Rooms / Halotherapy
Reported benefits include:
Mucoactive, clearing up mucus from the airways
Antibacterial, helping prevent infections
Anti-viral
Anti-inflammatory
Immunity boosting
Anti-allergenic
Increased Energy
Increased Lung Capacity
Halotherapy can also be used to treat breathing problems or post viral symptoms, which have emerged following the COVID-19 period from 2020 onwards, by improving breathing and the amount of oxygen in the blood.

All participants must agree to completing a health questionnaire prior to being accepted onto the course.
Participants must agree to providing post course evaluation feedback / case study.
