Halotherapy for treatment of respiratory diseases

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10161255

CONCLUSIONS: Halotherapy resulted in improvements of clinical state in the most of patients. The positive dynamics of flow-volume loop parameters and decrease of bronchial resistance measured by body plethysmography were observed. The changes in control group parameters after HT were not statistically significant. The specificity of this method is the low concentration and gradual administration of dry sodium chloride aerosol. Data on healing mechanisms of a specific air-dispersive environment of sodium chloride while while treatment the respiratory diseases are discussed.

The use of an artificial microclimate chamber in the treatment of patients with chronic obstructive lung diseases.


http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9424823

CONCLUSIONS: Significant positive effects of this method resulted in the improvement of the flow-volume parameters curve of lung function and in hypotensive effects on blood pressure. Halotherapy is recommended for use in patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases with hypertension or coronary heart disease.

The effect of salt chamber treatment on bronchial hyperresponsiveness in asthmatics


http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16629791

CONCLUSIONS: Salt chamber treatment reduced bronchial hyperresponsiveness as an add-on therapy in asthmatics with a low to moderate dose of inhaled steroids. The possibility that salt chamber treatment could serve as a complementary therapy to conventional medication cannot be excluded.

[The efficacy of speleotherapy in salt mines in children with bronchial asthma based on the data from immediate and late observations].


http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8266663

CONCLUSIONS: Speleotherapy courses noticeably diminished broncho-obstructive syndrome, improved pulmonary ventilation. The improvement proved stable in the majority of the patients. It is recommended to include speleotherapy in salt mines into combined rehabilitation treatment of pediatric asthmatics.

[The efficancy of speleotherapy in atopic dermatitis in children].


http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7846884

CONCLUSIONS: After proper clinical and immunological examinations 112 children with atopic dermatitis underwent immunocorrective speleotherapy in a chamber with artificial microclimate created with the use of natrium [sodium] chloride spraying. During the treatment positive trends were observed in the patients’ dermatological status and immune homeostasis. A complete 6-24-month response was reported in 58%, partial in 20%, no response in 6.9% of patients. The method is recommended for treatment of atopic dermatitis.

APPOINTMENT POLICIES

Arrival Time

To ensure a relaxing and unhurried experience, we recommend arriving 15 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment. This allows ample time for check-in, consultation, and preparation before your treatment begins.

Guests arriving late may have their treatment time shortened to avoid disrupting appointments scheduled after theirs. The full service fee will still apply.

Treatment Time

All massage and facial appointments include approximately 10 minutes within the scheduled appointment time for your personalized consultation, changing, and post-treatment recommendations. This allows your therapist or esthetician to provide individualized care while ensuring appointments remain on schedule for all guests.

Guests Under 18

The comfort, safety, and well-being of our guests are our highest priorities. Clients under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian for the entire duration of their appointment.

Guests under 18 are welcome to enjoy a Salt Cave session; however, the session must be reserved as a private appointment, and a parent or legal guardian must be present for the duration of the experience.

CANCELLATION POLICY

To ensure every guest receives the highest level of personalized care, your treatment time is reserved exclusively for you.

As a courtesy to both our guests and practitioners, we require at least 24 hours’ notice for any cancellations, rescheduling, or appointment modifications, regardless of the reason. Providing advance notice allows us the opportunity to offer your appointment time to another client and helps us respect the schedules of our practitioners.
