Discover the Many Benefits of Halotherapy

March 24, 2025•2 min read

The practice of halotherapy has been around for hundreds of years, hailed for its therapeutic effects on respiratory conditions and other common ailments. Simulated therapeutic Himalayan salt caves in a spa-like setting to relax and meditate is a popular form of halotherapy. Another way to access halotherapy’s benefits is a salt therapy powered by a device known as a halogenerator that infuses the air with finely crushed salt particles.

The use of halotherapy has evolved to provide relief for several issues and to stimulate general wellness.

At Complete Wellness, our team of chiropractic care specialists offers a range of integrative therapies for pain and transformational nutrition at our office in Calhoun, Georgia.

The benefits of haloherapy

Halotherapy as a practice was first popularized by a Polish doctor in the 1840s. Dr. Feliks Boczowski treated many patients that worked in salt mines and made an interesting observation: compared to other types of miners, the miners working in the salt caves weren’t exhibiting the same symptoms or developing the same respiratory ailments to the same degree as the other miners.

Salt is believed to have anti-inflammatory properties, and this may be one of the factors that have made halotherapy an increasingly popular service.

Halotherapy has been recommended for many health concerns and issues including:

Seasonal allergies
Asthma*
Bronchitis*
Side effects of smoking
Congestion/common cold
Psoriasis
Eczema
Anxiety
Stress
Depression

Halotherapy process explained

Halotherapy is available in both wet and dry therapy. Most people are familiar with one of the most common types of wet halotherapy: saline solutions to irrigate inflamed or congested nasal passages. Saltwater gargles to relieve a sore throat are also another popular form of wet halotherapy.

Dry halotherapy is what you experience in a salt cave, booth, or halobed, when fine salt particles are ground and diffused through the air for a therapeutic effect.

Even if you’re not experiencing a specific respiratory or skin ailment, halotherapy can be a relaxing and rejuvenating form of meditation and self-care.
