Salt Chamber Sessions
Experience the restorative power of Halotherapy, also known as salt therapy, in our tranquil salt chamber. Inspired by the healing practices of Eastern European salt caves, this natural therapy harnesses the therapeutic benefits of finely ground salt particles to promote clearer skin, improved breathing, and a relaxed nervous system.
During your session, a halogenerator gently disperses salt into the air, widening airways, loosening mucus, and reducing skin inflammation. The Himalayan salt lining the chamber releases negative ions, counteracting stressors like electronic EMFs, while rebalancing trace minerals in the body to support mental and physical health. Reminiscent of refreshing ocean air, the centuries-old healing properties of salt will truly transform your well-being.
For general wellness, we recommend one session every one to two weeks. For specific concerns, we recommend two to three sessions per week to accelerate results. Embrace the calming, healing benefits of salt therapy as part of your wellness journey.
What makes ours different?
Our Halogenerator produces the smallest salt particles in the industry, meaning the particles can get to the deepest places in your respiratory system to clear out inflammation and mucus.
Benefits of Halotherapy:
- Reduces mucus and congestion in the sinuses and chest
- Calms respiratory inflammation and supports the immune system
- Helps manage allergies, colds, recurrent sinus issues and asthma
- Improves skin conditions such as acne, psoriasis, and eczema
- Promotes relaxation and reduces stress
- Great for lingering coughs or colds that won’t go away
FAQ
1. What is the cleanliness of the salt chamber?
Salt rooms are three times cleaner than a sterile surgery room in a hospital due to the sterilizing effects of the salt in the air. Salt inherently has antimicrobial properties, hence its use in curing foods.
2. Can children use the salt chamber?
Yes, it is safe and encouraged as a drug free alternative to addressing many issue for toddlers and children.
3. What is the recommended frequency?
We recommend once per week or once every two weeks for maintaining wellness. If you are looking to address a specific issue with halotherapy, then we recommend 2-3 times per week for a therapeutic effect.
4. What is the price?
Your Introductory Session is $20. Subsequent sessions are $35. Each session is 30 minutes. We also offer package pricing (3-, 10- and 20-packs) which brings the cost per session down. Pricing for children differs – view pricing here.
5. What makes your salt chamber different?
Our state of the art halogenerator and the smaller size of the room allow for a greater concentration of extremely fine salt particles to fill the room. This means the salt can get into more and deeper spaces in your airways and skin and be more effective than the large salt rooms that use larger salt particles. This is why some people may not necessarily taste the salt, but the effects are more significant.
6. How long will the effects last?
Although some results occur quickly and last for up to a year, we feel regular use of the salt chamber helps to maintain wellness. We recommended 1-2 treatments per month as a general guideline for self care and keeping the body in balance.
We believe wellness is a team effort, so here at Isthmus we are happy to be expanding our current services to offer halotherapy (otherwise known as a salt room or chamber, or salt therapy). Ever feel like everything feels better when you are at the ocean? We can’t bring the ocean to Wisconsin, but we can bring the benefits of the sea salt!
Salt therapy has a regulating effect on the body and autoimmune system by reducing IgE levels (which calms immune oversensitivity). The salt is ground into tiny micro particles by our state-of-the-art halogenerator and then is gently released into the air, therefore widening your airways, deepening the breath and helping to resolve and loosen mucus everywhere in the body. Our floor here in our salt chamber is lined with several inches of Himalayan salt to release negative ions into the air which helps to reduce the wear and tear of all of the positive ions released via electronics and EMFs which we are overexposed to. The rest of the salt particles that aren’t inhaled land on the skin, reducing inflammation and encouraging cell turn over, promoting healthier skin and quicker growing hair.
