Breathe Deep: Clear Sinuses, Happy Lungs—Unwind with Sauna and Halotherapy!

In the quest for holistic health and relaxation, two therapies have gained significant attention: halotherapy and infrared sauna sessions. Both treatments offer unique benefits, promoting respiratory health, relaxation, and detoxification. Combining these therapies can create a powerful wellness routine. Let’s explore the individual benefits of each and how they work together to enhance your overall well-being.

WHAT IS AN INFRARED SAUNA?

An infrared sauna uses infrared heaters to emit radiant heat, which is absorbed directly by the body rather than warming the air around you. Think heating up from the inside out, rather than just the external skin. This type of sauna operates at lower temperatures than traditional saunas, allowing for longer, more comfortable sessions.

What is Halotherapy?

Halotherapy, or salt therapy, involves inhaling micro-sized salt particles in a controlled environment. This therapy mimics the natural microclimate of salt caves, believed to provide various health benefits, particularly for the respiratory system. We accomplish this with our Halo One Salt Machine that disperses fine salt particles into the air.

The Synergy of Acupuncture, Infrared Sauna, and Halotherapy

Each therapy addresses different aspects of health—acupuncture for energy balance and reducing inflammation, halotherapy for respiratory support, and infrared sauna for detoxification. 

How They Work Together:

  • Enhanced Respiratory Health: The dry heat of an infrared sauna can help open airways and enhance the respiratory benefits of halotherapy. As you breathe in the salt-infused air, the heat helps loosen mucus, making it easier to expel.

  • Deep Detoxification: Halotheapy and the sauna promote detoxification, but in different ways. While halotherapy aids in respiratory detoxification, the infrared sauna encourages sweating, helping to flush toxins from the skin and body.

  • Improved Skin Health: The synergistic effects can benefit skin conditions even further. The salt in halotherapy can help soothe skin irritations while infrared heat promotes circulation, enhancing overall skin health.
