What is Halotherapy? (Dry Salt Therapy)
Dry salt therapy (halotherapy) is a natural, drug-free, non-invasive treatment that utilizes a halogenerator to grind, crush, and disperse micron-sized particles into the salt room to help aid respiratory concerns and skin conditions. If there is no halogenerator, there is no halotherapy.

Benefits of Infrared Saunas

Swedish (Traditional) Sauna
Swedish saunas, also known as Finnish or traditional saunas, operate with higher temperatures, typically between 150°F and 195°F, and a lower humidity level. These saunas are heated by a stove, either wood-burning or electric, with rocks that emit heat. Water can be poured on the rocks to increase humidity, intensifying the sensation of heat.
Benefits of Swedish Saunas
Detoxification:
- Similar to infrared saunas, the intense sweating in a traditional sauna can help to flush out toxins from the body.
Cardiovascular Benefits:
- The heat and steam can stimulate the heart rate, increasing circulation and potentially helping to lower blood pressure over time.
Muscle Relaxation:
- High temperatures help to relax muscles, relieving tension and helping to alleviate minor aches and pains.
Improved Immune System:
- Regular sauna use can stimulate the production of white blood cells, strengthening the body’s immune response.
Stress Reduction:
- Traditional saunas also provide a quiet, relaxing environment for reducing stress and promoting relaxation.
