Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Salt Spa?
Dry Salt Therapy is 100% natural, safe and drug-free. Therapy relies on a basic mineral, pure sodium chloride, commonly known as salt, to stimulate the body's internal processes for cleansing the respiratory tract and strengthening lung function. Through exposure to negatively ionized tiny salt particles in a carefully controlled environment, people simply inhale and exhale to improve their breathing.
What to expect?
After completion of your consent form, you will enter our salt room. You will relax in comfortable zero gravity chairs with dim lighting and relaxation music. A blanket and pillow are also provided for your comfort. Each session lasts 45 minutes. You will leave the halochambers refreshed, rejuvenated and breathing easily. You may notice a slight taste of salt on your tongue. Salt on your clothing is easily brushed off.
What should I wear to the treatment sessions?
Salt room therapy requires no special clothing; the salt will not damage your clothes or leave any noticeable residue. Those with skin conditions may elect to wear bathing suits for maximum exposure to the salt. Salt is a natural anti-bacterial and it kills almost all bacteria on contact. In addition, our climate controlled and censored room ensures you get the maximum benefits of the salt dispersed into the room.
What can salt therapy treat?
Salt therapy, also known as Halotherapy, is a drug free, non-invasive treatment that improves health problems and complements treatments for acne, allergies, asthma, anxiety, bronchitis, cough and colds, COPD, Cystic Fibrosis, depression, dermatitis, ear infections, hay fever, postpartum depression, psoriasis, helps relaxation, sports recovery, seasonal affective disorder, sinusitis, smoker’s cough, snoring/ sleep apnea, stress, anxiety and fatigue.
How does salt therapy work?
Dry salt aerosol therapy has been medically recognized in Europe for over 50 years for the treatment of breathing and skin problems. This safe and affordable alternative therapy compliments conventional medical treatments as an integrative approach to produce sustainable results.
How quickly will I experience the benefits of salt therapy?
Your course of treatment will vary with your condition. Some people report that they feel an improvement in their breathing and skin health after just one session in the salt room but, as with any natural healing remedy, the effects are cumulative and the benefits you feel should increase and last longer with a every sessions.

Ionic Foot Detox Users Tell the Top 10 Health Benefits Received:
If you have ever visited a day spa, a beauty salon, or a chiropractic office, you may have seen or heard about Ionic Detox. It is common for these facilities to offer programs that utilize Ionic Foot Detox Systems that are designed to assist their customers while they rid their bodies of toxins.
In theory the human body is bombarded with toxic elements every day. You breathe pollution in the air when you leave your home, you consume toxic chemicals with every pill you swallow, and you are eating the same synthetically produced hormones that are force fed to American livestock whenever you sink your teeth into a sausage or a cheeseburger.
Dr. M Amin, PH.D., Doctor of Natural Medicine finds these observations to be terrifying, “Over the years, loads of toxins, improper diet and lifestyle and the excretory organs of our bodies fail to function at their best. This leaves us feeling lethargic with a weakened immune system which can get overwhelmed by disease, leading to early and painful death.” As an advocate for body detoxification, Dr. Amin, PH.D feels that “Amongst all the detoxification methods in practice, Ionic Foot Detox is probably the best method.”
Ionic Foot Detox is said to work by the principle of negative ion generation. But unlike other detox products, Ionic Foot Detox works through the ionization of water in a basin. When you put your feet in the tub the control unit ionizes the water and split it into H+ and OH- ions (and sometimes into H3O+ and H2O2 ions.) These ions are able to enter the body through the thousands of large pores of the feet and travel through the circulatory and lymphatic systems to the rest of the body. These ions neutralize oppositely charged ions that are connected to toxins in each cell, including those which are normally slow to exit the body.
Once these toxins leave the body through the foot bath, sweat or the body when you go to the bathroom, all the body’s organs are said to be energized and stimulated to function optimally. In the Ionic Detox industry, supporters have found that the color and consistency of the water can change during a session. Many people believe that certain colors are associated with different body systems. However, research has found that the color of the water will change to an orange/brown color even without anyone sitting down at the machine.
Dr. Amin states, “The colors are also affected by oils being released from the sebaceous glands, the dead skin cells and the users own acidity/alkalinity. Some of the neutralized toxins will also exit the body back out through the pores of the feet due to osmosis. An unusual amount of any particular color may indicate that a person has accumulated toxins in certain areas or from certain conditions and that ionic detox is helping those areas.”
Studies and tests of or relating to this topic continue to grow. While the results are speculated, a January 2009 survey performed by HEALTHandMED.com shows that ionic foot detox seems to act by something more than just the placebo effect. 126 respondents shared specific health benefits that they or their clients received from HEALTHandMED ionic foot detox systems are tabulated below along with some of their comments.
