Dating back to the 12th century a salt inhalation room provides the benefits of experiencing the practice known as halotherapy. Prized for its positive impact on breathing and our skin. As one of the purest salts in nature, extracted from the ancient sea beds at the foothills of the Himalayas it's no wonder that we have seen an increase in these chambers being positioned on board motor yachts.
With its pink-hued warmth at a comfortable temperature, the environment is deeply calming and the atmosphere is infused with microscopic salt particles, to be inhaled and said to fall on the airway linings and draw water in, thinning the mucus and making it easier to raise, thus making people feel better. In addition to being allergen-free.
With Himalayan salt being naturally rich in iron, potassium and calcium - along with a range of minerals and elements - it is known that it may aid the body in its natural detoxification process. It is a rich source of iodine which is effective in maintaining a healthy electrolyte balance which in turn aids your digestive system to retain nutrients and lower blood pressure. With the absorption of beneficial trace minerals, the chamber may ease topical conditions such as eczema and dermatitis.
The abundance of negative ions which circulate boosts serotonin production which influences learning, memory and happiness as well as regulates body temperature, sleep and hunger. The plethora of benefits is often underrated.
With great emphasis on being well, the chambers do not require a vast volume of space but rather a well-thought-out inclusion of how they would complement the wellness platform as a whole.
Encompassing the mind, body and soul connection - for those moments of presence to connect us to the infinite, to instil peace and deep relaxation - this chamber offers a truly unique focus offering the opportunity to nurture, balance and inspire.
