Great Press Release in City AM

February 3rd, 2010

Timothy Barber from City AM visited us recently and wrote a great article about The Salt Cave with a title: A salt of the earth therapy for congested Londoners.

He resembled The Cave to Narnia and claimed to have benefits right after his first visit: ‘I only paid a single visit, on the back of a heavy cold, and could certainly notice clearer airways for a short time afterwards’.

Also he can teach you how to free your lungs from mucus using new and very efficient techniques of chest physio based on the acceleration and of the expiratory flux. There is no age limit as he has specialised in babies.

Salt therapy- a natural treatment for snoring?

December 14th, 2009

This morning I found an interesting article posted on a blog specialised in sleep and snoring problems.

“As we have already said, this is mainly used for allergy conditions such as Asthma, or infections like pneumonia, but it is also highly useful to some snorers- the salt particles can help to clear the nasal passages and reduce the swelling in some of the loose tissues which can be causes of snoring. It can also help with issues like sinus drainage.”

Natural Eczema Remedy

November 7th, 2009

A new description is added to our website about what is eczema and how Salt Therapy can help on that.

A good case study:

The Salt Cave started to support local nurseries and schools in the Wandsworth area.
One of our little patients through the school program was a 7 year old boy. He has suffered with eczema since he was a baby. This year his eczema was particularly unbearable and the medication prescribed by our GP just didn’t seem to work. It was very painful for this little boy, at nights he would scratch it in his sleep until it bled.
The school teacher recommended salt therapy for the mum and that is how we got in contact. End of September they started to come for the therapy. They came twice a week for a 1 hour session. He was wearing shorts, so that his skin was exposed to the salty air. After just three sessions we noticed the difference in his eczema and after just seven sessions the condition had completely cleared up.
Dry salt aerosol has a beneficial effect on skin microcirculation. It normalizes Ph and induces regenerative processes in the skin, increases skin turgor, stimulates growth and improves hair health. After a few sessions the skin feels less itchy, fissures and scratches are slowly drying of.
