I have suffered from asmtha and hayfever since I was a child. I still remember sitting in my childhood kitchen and sucking on my puffer as my mom held it – I think I was about four years old. Since that time, I have tried all sorts of ways to reduce my asmtha – swimming, acupuncture, massage, chiropractors and naturopaths. Nothing worked.
So it was with some skepticism that I took a recommendation by a friend to attend a salt bath. Despite my skepticism, I had heard about how researchers had found salt water could help improve the lung capacity of people suffering from various respiratory illnesses and so I was somewhat interested in seeing if there way something to it after all.
The salt bath I attend had comfortable seats, and soft and relaxing music. The room itself was made of salt – the floors and walls were all constructed from sea salt bricks. A halogenerator was in the room which breaks the salt down and circulates them around the room. These salt particles are absorbed into the lungs where they work their magic.
After several sessions, I noticed that my asmtha and hayfever had greatly improved. I was only taking minimal levels of drugs and yet I felt terrific. Attending the salt bath has now become a regular routine of mine and my lungs are thanking me for it. No longer am I running around out of breath or my face clogged up with hayfever. I highly recommend it to anyone suffering from respiratory problems.
