What Is Halotherapy?

Halotherapy is an alternative treatment process that involves breathing air that is infused with microscopic salt particles. It has been used for years as a treatment for asthma, bronchitis, and coughs. However, the practice dates back to the 12th century when people journeyed to salt caves for therapeutic purposes. The modern version of a trip to the salt mine takes place in a peaceful and serene setting that feels very spa-like. At The DRIPBaR Scottsdale, you can also combine your Halotherapy with a visit to the infrared sauna to reduce muscle tension and stress.

The Benefits Of Breathing Salt Air

Have you ever wondered why you feel better at the beach than any other place in the world? Is the experience both physically and emotionally invigorating? If you are smiling and nodding as you consider those two questions, you might have already experienced some of the benefits of Halotherapy in a natural setting. However, a weekly drive to the beach is not a real treatment solution when you live in Mesa or Phoenix. But you can make the short drive to the DRIPBaR in Scottsdale to enjoy all of these Halotherapy benefits:

  • Relief from common respiratory conditions, including COPD, cystic fibrosis, allergies, bronchitis, asthma, and more
  • Reduced skin irritation from psoriasis, eczema, and acne
  • Decreased issues from damage caused by smoking, such as eased coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath
  • Studies have found that some people experience a decrease in anxiety and depression when inhaling salt air and during Halotherapy

How Halotherapy Works

With respect to respiratory issues, Halotherapy has been found to function as a detoxifying agent as it cleans the lungs and opens the airways. Those who experience increased coughing and mucus secretion while in Halotherapy must understand that this is the natural process of cleaning the lungs and airways. Your body is once again functioning correctly to force the foreign matter out of the airway to allow easier breathing.

To perk up the health and appearance of the skin, Halotherapy is ideal for exfoliating and unclogging the pores. It can also reduce redness, itching, and swelling of the skin. On a deeper level, the salt balances the skin’s pH and increases the speed at which the epidermis and derma regenerate while also improving the cellular membrane microcirculation. The results of routine trips to Halotherapy are reduced wrinkles, more ridged and healthy skin, and improved skin elasticity.
