Halotherapy (also known as dry salt therapy) simulates the microclimate of a natural salt cave in a clean, controlled room. A halogenerator grinds pharmaceutical grade salt into fine aerosol particles. Inhaling these microparticles may help cleanse the lungs, reduce mucus, ease inflammation, and promote healthier skin and better breathing.

It’s widely used for respiratory and skin issues:

• Asthma, bronchitis, sinusitis, allergies, colds/flu

• Skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, acne

• Stress, anxiety, improved sleep, and focus disorders like ADHD

European studies suggest up to 98% effectiveness for specific respiratory conditions

Generally yes—it’s natural, drug-free, and considered safe. It complements medications and may enhance benefits while reducing drug dependency. Still, consult your doctor before starting if you have health concerns.

Yes! Even infants as young as 6 months. Results for children are often faster. Halo Haven is designed with children in mind, with salt floors and sensory toys so they can play while being treated.

You might notice mild coughing, throat dryness, slight skin or eye irritation—this is the body’s way of clearing pollutants. Drinking water usually helps relieve throat discomfort.

It’s not suitable during an active illness or fever, or for individuals with:

• Acute infections, active tuberculosis, or Stage 3 COPD

• Uncontrolled hypertension, serious heart or kidney conditions

• Use of an oxygen tank, or uncontrolled bleeding

Typical clinical guidelines recommend:

• 12–18 sessions for asthma, rhinitis, bronchitis

• 5–7 sessions for acute sinusitis or cold symptoms

• 20–25 sessions for chronic conditions like bronchiectasis or cystic fibrosis

No special clothing is necessary; however, everyone is required to wear a clean pair of white socks. If you do not have clean white socks at the time of your session, they will be available for purchase at the front desk.

The salty environment is naturally antibacterial and antimicrobial, which helps prevent the spread of germs. The air is HEPA-filtered between sessions, and salt rooms are often cleaner than surgical suites.

Dry salt aerosol is thought to bypass moisture-related airway reactions seen with saline. It also brings more negative ions, which can aid respiration and reduce infection risk from damp delivery methods.
