Halotherapy is not a “new” type of treatment. It may be new to America, but the therapy has been around in Europe for decades. In fact, the principles of halotherapy are based on the therapeutic effects of the natural salt caves in Poland. As far back as the 1800s, a Polish physician took note of the overall good respiratory health of salt miners.
When the micronized particles of salt enter the respiratory passages, they attract moisture and trap pathogens, like bacteria and viruses. This process makes it easier to thin out mucus and clear your lungs. You’ll breathe better and have more energy. It’s great for people with asthma, COPD, allergies, and sinusitis – just to name a few. In addition, salt has healing properties for the skin. Many ancient civilizations, such as the Egyptians and Greeks, have touted the benefits of salt for the healing of wounds and chronic skin conditions.
