Salt Solution for Allergies & Asthma

Salt therapy originates from the Eastern European tradition of spending time in natural salt caves for health.

It is believed that it benefits asthmatics, cystic fibrosis patients, and a host of other respiratory and skin ailments including psoriasis and eczema. Plus it is healing for smokers and ex-smokers.

Salt molecules are comprised of a positive sodium ion and a negative chloride ion. People with respiratory conditions lack sodium chloride in their airway linings and salt therapy helps resolve this deficiency.

The release of negative ions can also have a beneficial effect on your mood.

Nowadays there are salt spas that have been built specifically for this type of therapy, but a friend of ours tried using a simple ‘Saltpipe’ and she has had wonderful results, plus it is 100% natural.
