"Salt therapy, though a recent trend in the United States, has a centuries-old legacy that began in 1800s Europe. In Poland's salt mines, miners who were regularly exposed to the mineral noticed remarkable improvements in their respiratory and skin health. This discovery led to the development of salt therapy in underground caves, where individuals would spend 2-3 hours daily to reap its healing benefits. Today, while it may not be feasible to travel to salt caves for extended sessions, modern medical salt rooms provide a convenient and effective alternative to experience the same therapeutic benefits."
"While clinical research in the United States is still emerging, preliminary findings suggest that the therapeutic benefits of a 2-3 hour session in a salt cave can be achieved in just 45 minutes in a specially designed halogenerator treatment room. In this controlled environment, pharmaceutical-grade salt is finely micronized and dispersed into the air. Clinical studies have demonstrated that inhaling these micronized salt particles can support the respiratory system by reducing inflammation, combating infections, clearing blockages, and alleviating discomfort."
