On May 13 and 14, Salt of the Earth, Center for Healing, is offering half-price ($20) salt cave sessions, so enjoy some time to rejuvenate and relax at the salt cave with Mom. Halotherapy is a non-invasive treatment that allows the body to use aerosolized salt as a method of natural healing. At Salt of the Earth, customers are surrounded by thousands of pounds of pink Himalayan salt on the walls and floor in an environment that recreates the microclimate of naturally occurring subterranean salt caves. A generator crushes additional salt into micron-sized particles and disperses it throughout the salt cave air.

As clients relax, the air in the cave is closely monitored to maintain a precise concentration of aerosolized salt, keeping it in a therapeutic range. Breathing in the micron-sized salt particles stimulates an anti-inflammatory response, reducing irritated airways and thinning mucus in the bronchial tubes and lungs, thus beneficial for those suffering with asthma, allergy-related symptoms, bronchitis, COPD and the common cold.
