Every year asthma claims 4,000 lives in the US alone. Prescription drugs and inhalers may bring immediate relief but the use of salt therapy can keep inflammation and irritation in the lungs to a minimum.
A patient suffering from asthma can find relief with salt therapy,
as it helps widen your airways as well as humidifies and fluidizes the bronchial secretions in the bronchial tree, thereby reducing bronchospasm. Salt therapy causes the absorption of edema from the mucosa lining the airway passages, due to salt’s natural anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. An asthmatic person can start breathing easily after just a few sessions.
These sessions can also decrease coughing and dependence on asthma inhalers and drugs. A complete treatment regiment of 5 to 15 sessions will provide benefits for as long as 6 to 12 months. For those clients that want to maintain the benefits of salt therapy with regular use, we offer several memberships that provide unlimited sessions of salt therapy each month.
