Benefits of Salt Therapy on the Respiratory system
The inner lining of the respiratory organs (also known as the mucous membrane, or mucosa) cleans and protects the air passages by trapping bacteria and debris. Healthy respiratory mucosa is compact, wet, clean and flexible. This is the main difference between someone who gets ill frequently to one who almost never gets ill. If the mucosa is unhealthy, it allows viruses and bacteria to develop in our respiratory organs and cause inflaming states or acute, chronic types of illnesses.
Health problems of respiratory organs arise when the respiratory mucosa is injured, to become thin or dry. This can occur if we are in dry, polluted or very hot places for a long time. Glands, which produce mucus, are injured and renovation of the mucosa begins to stop.
When we’re having longer periods of problems with our respiratory organs, it means there are layers of old mucus and impureness on the mucosa. These layers are becoming thicker, causing different inflamed states. The salt particles have dehydration properties thus, inhaling it, it dries this mucus and it can be secreted from the surface of the mucosa. lt becomes easier to breathe afterwards -the antibacterial, antiseptic quality of the salt also amplifies this effect.
When they are clean, only then the salt particles can penetrate the mucosa to activate the glands, so it produces more of these in order to strengthen the immune system. We recommend approximately 7 sessions after the initial cleaning.
Benefits of Salt Therapy on the Skin
Our skin is our biggest organ and it doesn’t just affect our appearance, but it also protects us from harmful things in the environment.
Salt particles have two effects on damaged skin:
1.
On the surface, it dehydrates the skin’s outer layer, which causes pores to narrow, disinfect and gradually get rid of the consequences of damaged skin. lt makes the skin smooth as it is essentially mild peeling.
The skin is constructed with three basic layers. The outside layer is responsible for the process of shelling, which the salt accelerates, aiding it to have a more beautiful, younger and healthier look. The health of the other two inside layers of the skin depends on the lymph system.
2.
The lymph system is part of your immune system, and has many functions. lt protects your body from invaders that cause illnesses, maintain body fluid levels, absorb digestive tract fats and remove cellular waste.
The salt particles penetrate the lymph system, causing the activation of lymph fluids, which work to bring nutrients to the skin from the blood. This makes the skin elastic and it doesn’t inflame or damage due to the influence of outside or inside allergens, creating healthier skin in the long-term.
This therapy is a natural, non-invasive treatment that offers benefits to respiratory system, as well as your skin and general wellbeing.
During a 45 minute session, particles of salt organically mix together with the air and is breathed in. This helps to strengthen the immune, lymphatic and nervous system. It also helps to reduce and aid sleep due to the calming nature of the therapy.
