In our cave, we grind salt into microscopic particles and release them into the air. Once inhaled, these salt particles absorb irritants, including allergens and toxins, from the respiratory system. This process breaks up mucus and reduces inflammation, resulting in clear airways.​

The salt particles have a similar effect on your skin by absorbing bacteria and other impurities responsible for many skin conditions.

​Salt is also said to produce negative ions. This causes your body to release more serotonin, one of the chemicals behind feelings of happiness. Many people use himalayan salt lamps to get the benefits of negative ions at home.
