What happens during a session?
During sessions our halogenerator grinds pharmaceutical salt to a fine dust that is dispersed into the room for you to inhale. The salt rooms are designed for relaxation so you will want to sit back in our comfy lounge chairs and breathe deeply. The doors to the salt room will be closed and remain closed during the session for the best guest experience and to ensure salt particles do not leave the room. If a guest arrives late or after the session has started we are not able to open the doors to the salt room to allow them in.
What should you wear to your salt session?
You will want to wear comfortable clothing to your salt session. Please note that darker colored clothing may show more salt than lighter clothing, but it can easily be brushed off and will not harm your clothing. We have fresh blankets for use during your session..
Guests are provided a pair of socks to be worn in place of your own OR over your own. Shoes cannot be worn in the room due to the purity of the salt.
Skin Conditions

Actively Sick?
