Bethesda Salt Cave is lined from floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall with sparkling Himalayan salt crystals. The room temperature is kept at 68–70 degrees Farenheit, the ideal temperature to generate a negative ionic charge in the salt crystals, which is then released into the air. By relaxing in this meditative space and inhaling the salty air, we activate our body's own natural healing processes: our skin and internal systems are cleansed by both the healing negative ionic charge and the antimicrobial properties of the salts with their 84 trace minerals. As we rest in the quiet beauty of the Cave, the mind settles down, the heart rate slows, the spirit expands, and the body is able to restore, recalibrate and heal itself on many levels.
Our salt cave will leave you feeling refreshed, replenished & in balance. Through the natural healing process of salt therapy, people of all ages can experience deep relaxation and wholistic health benefits that are entirely natural, non-invasive and drug-free.
HaloTherapy, also known as dry salt therapy, is a all-natural, drug-free, and non invasive pharmaceutical grade, salty micro climate which alleviates respiratory symptoms and promotes optimal health. Our dry salt therapy is delivered with a state of the art Halo-Generator that releases tiny healthy salt particles into the air. This soothes the upper respiratory system and skin allowing it to rest, recover and breathe easy. HaloTherapy kills bacteria, fungus and acts as an expectorant removing toxins from the lungs, boosts the immune system, promotes over-all wellness.
Meditate in our cave and feel the vibration of the salt, the soft ringing of our chimes, crystal sound bowls and gong. When you meditate in our cave there are no distractions and the salt removes unwanted particulates in the air allowing the whispers in your mind to quieten and allowing your consciousness to journey to a higher level of transition. Bring your own music or listen to ours. Relief is just a breath away.
