Salt Cave
Halo Therapy
The Magic of Halotherapy
Immerse yourself in the transformative benefits of halotherapy, also known as salt therapy, within our expansive 400-square-foot salt cave. Filled with over 12,000 lbs. of Himalayan salt on its floors and walls, the ambiance is undeniable. This natural and holistic approach provides a therapeutic atmosphere, promoting relaxation while facilitating the expulsion of mucus and bacteria from your lungs. The skin sterilization properties of halotherapy also contribute to managing various skin conditions. Experience the undeniable ambiance and holistic benefits of our salt cave, designed for both respiratory well-being and skin health.

How it Works
Immerse yourself in our cutting-edge halotherapy experience, where a state-of-the-art generator, strategically located on the opposite side of the wall, provides our salt cave with pharmaceutical-grade salt. This salt, identical to that used in nebulizer treatments prescribed by medical professionals, is transformed into dust-sized particles during your session. This dry form of pharmaceutical-grade salt acts as a potent magnet, efficiently extracting mucus and bacteria from your lungs.
As the room becomes clouded with these microscopic salt particles, their antimicrobial, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties kick into action. This not only sterilizes your entire respiratory system but also gives a substantial boost to your immune system. The benefits extend to your skin as well, making our halotherapy ideal for conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, and overactive acne.
The beauty of our halotherapy lies in its dual action—providing respiratory wellness and skin rejuvenation in a single, therapeutic session.

What to Expect
Your session in the salt cave will last for 45 minutes, providing you with a peaceful and personalized experience.
Inside the salt cave, you have the freedom to engage in various activities tailored to your preferences. Whether you choose to play with the salt, practice yoga, or simply relax in a zero-gravity chair with a blanket, the choice is entirely yours.
Almost instantly, you'll taste the salt on your lips, a reminder of the delicious and rehydrating experience awaiting you at the end of your session.
If you experience common reactions like an itchy or burning nose, coughing, sneezing, sinus drainage, or dry eyes for contact lens users during your session, rest assured that these are normal ways for the body to excrete unwanted materials. Kleenex is provided for your convenience.

How to Prepare
Wear clothing that you don't mind getting dusty, as a light layer of salt may accumulate during your session.
Be prepared to engage in activities such as sifting through the sea of Himalayan salt with provided rakes, finding buried rose quartz hearts (which you're welcome to take home), and exploring an array of amenities like yoga mats, zero gravity chairs, blankets, and informative books.
After your halotherapy session, drink plenty of water to maximize the benefits.
Try to retain the salt on your skin for as long as possible, as its effects continue to unfold even after leaving the salt cave.
