HIMALAYAN CRYSTAL SALT
Himalayan Crystal Salt is one of the most profound and fundamental health re-discoveries of our time. This crystalline, unrefined salt comes from the original prime body of the sea- The Primal Sea. Located deep below the earth's surface, Himalayan Crystal Salt was created when the primal sea- the place where scientists believe all life originated, was evaporated by the sun's energy. Over millions of years, land masses formed on top of these salty deposits, compressing them under tremendous force and creating what is now known as Himalayan Pink Salt.
So what does it mean to us?
Pure Himalayan Crystal Salt contains miraculous healing properties for both our environment and our bodies. The air is filled with negative and positive ions. To maintain a healthy atmosphere, these negative and positive ions must remain in balance. However, electronic devices and our home heating and cooling systems produce so many positive ions that our air is thrown off balance - resulting in stress, sleep disorders, migraine headache and allergies.
Benefits of Salt Therapy
More than 40 years of research, conducted around the world, shows that treatment with Salt Therapy has beneficial effects for patients with:
Asthma
Chronic Bronchitis
Sinusitis
COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)
Cystic Fibrosis
Allergic Rhinopathy or Hay Fever
Ear Infections
Various acute or chronic respiratory diseases
Smoker’s cough
Viral infections
Coughs and colds
Chronic ear-nose-throat illnesses
Salt is also extremely beneficial to your skin in treating:
Acne
Psoriasis
Neurodermatitis
Eczema
In addition, salt naturally produces negative ions, which produce the “clarity effect” that people love from Salt Therapy treatments. Negative ions have been shown to reduce:
Stress
Headaches
Lethargy
Depression
And negative ions can dramatically increase your:
Energy
Mental alertness
Overall sense of well-being
SALT LAMPS
WHAT ARE HIMALAYAN SALT LAMPS?
They are simply large pieces of Himalayan salt with a bulb inside. They are meant to be used in the home and put off a nice red/pink glow
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF HIMALAYAN SALT LAMPS?
Himalayan salt has long been known to provide healing health benefits. While Halotherapy (aka: salt therapy) has been around since ancient times it's recently been gaining in popularity in spas around the world.
Himalayan salt is said to:
Cleanse and deodorize the air.
Reduce allergy & asthma symptoms.
Increase energy levels.
Neutralize electromagnetic radiation.
Improve mood & concentration
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Most of the benefits are based around the fact that salt lamps naturally generate negative ions. Negative ions are usually found in nature (think thunderstorms, ocean, rain, waterfalls), which is tied to why we often feel so refreshed after a storm or after being near water.
Positive ions are found in abundance in our homes - created by electronics, tv's, microwaves, cell phones, computers, etc.
As I understand it, the combination of light and salt in Himalayan lamps is what creates negative ions. These negative ions neutralize the positive ions in our home which helps to purify the air.
I am not claiming to be a chemistry expert here. When it comes to things like this, I usually inform myself as much as possible and then go off of my own experience.
I do encourage you to do your own research as well. Here's a link to an interesting article from WebMD on how negative ions help to improve mood, treat depression and purify the air
