Good evening everyone 😊
✨We just wanted to provide you all with a bit more information on some of the conditions that may benefit from Salt Therapy:
🔴 Asthma
🟠 Chest Infections
🟡 Sinusitis
🟢 Laryngitis
🔵 Hayfever And Allergies
🟣 Cystic Fibrosis
🟤 Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (COPD)
🔴 Asthma 🔴
When you have asthma, your AIRWAYS NARROW and SWELL causing SHORTNESS OF BREATH and a TIGHT CHEST.
The airways produce EXTRA MUCUS , and breathing therefore becomes difficult. Unfortunately, asthma can’t yet be cured, but its symptoms can be controlled and Salt Therapy can help when used alongside existing medical treatment.
🔴 How Salt therapy HELPS
▫️Prevents Chest Infections
▫️Reduces Incidents of asthma attacks
🔴 How it Works
When using salt therapy the anti-inflammatory and antibacterial therapeutic benefits of salt help to clear excess mucus and avoid recurrent attacks, helping you to breathe naturally, and more easily.
🟠 Chest INFECTIONS 🟠
Salt Therapy BOOSTS YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM making it easier to fight infection.
Chest Infections are caused by bacteria which can lead to shortness of breath, pangs in the chest and overall discomfort.
🟠 How Salt therapy Helps
▫️Assists with a good night’s sleep
▫️Reduces the need for antibiotics
▫️Helps to dissolve mucus and acts as an expectorant
▫️Reduces the overall occurrence of chest Infections
▫️Relieves the airways
🟠 How it Works
By using salt therapy it will help you to COUGH UP THE PHLEGM and hence relieve the breathing. Overtime this can reduce the occurrence of Chest Infections and prevent the Chest Infection spreading into other organs.
🟡 SINUSITIS 🟡
Salt Therapy REDUCES YOUR ALLERGIC REACTION TO IRRITANTS in your home.
Sinusitis is often caused by INFECTION of the MUCOUS MEMBRANE due to the common cold for example. During a bout of the common cold, the mucus membranes become SWOLLEN and BLOCK the openings of the sinuses.
▫️Salt therapy helps to DISSOLVE MUCUS and UNBLOCK the sinuses thus helping to REDUCE the HEADACHES and/or facial pain.
▫️Reduces congestion, watery eyes and blocked nose
▫️Relieves headaches, ear ache and neck pain
▫️Relieves pain and pressure in the face
▫️Relieves the sufferer of that “bunged up feeling”
🟡How it Works
Salt Therapy can help by making the EXPULSION of MUCUS EASIER, restricting the build up of mucus thereafter, and REDUCING the BACTERIA in the mucus membrane, which causes Sinusitis in the first place. This also helps reduce the risk of secondary infections in the throat .
🟢 LARYNGITIS 🟢
Halotherapy REDUCES THE SWELLING of the larynx muscle.
Laryngitis is inflammation of the larynx which is your VOICE BOX and depending on the severity of the condition it can cause pain when speaking, hoarseness / strained voice, difficulty swallowing, fever, sore throat and an urge to clear your throat.
▫️Salt therapy helps to reduce the hoarse voice and pain when speaking
▫️Restrict Mucus Buildup
▫️Relieves difficult swallowing
🟢 How it Works
It can can help relieve the symptoms of laryngitis by making the expulsion of mucus easier, and restricting the build up of mucus thereafter, the salt therapy, by removing the mucus and restricting the development of bacteria within the mucus membrane also helps reduce the risk of secondary infections in the throat.
🔵 Hay Fever (Rhinitis) and ALLERGIES 🔵
RELIEVES CONGESTION, HEADACHES and STUFFINESS, helping you to breath easy.
Rhinitis is the medical name for hay fever, and refers to an allergic reaction normally experienced at various times of the year. POLLEN and OTHER ALLERGINS from plants, trees and grass cause an INFLAMMATION OF THE LINING OF THE NOSE with unpleasant side effects – itchy and red eyes, blocked or runny nose, itchy skin, facial redness, sleep loss and headaches.
▫️Salt therapy reduces your reliance on Antihistamines and other medications
▫️Restrict Mucus Buildup
▫️Provides relief of that “Bunged up feeling” and associated pain
🔵 How it Works
Salt Therapy can help relieve the symptoms of hay fever by making the EXPULSION OF MUCUS EASIER , and RESTRICTING the build up of FURTHER MUCUS. Salt Therapy also restricts the development of bacteria within the mucus membrane, helping to REDUCE THE RISK OF SECONDARY INFECTIONS in the throat.
🟣 Cystic Fibrosis (CF) 🟣
Reduces your breathing difficulties..
Cystic fibrosis (CF) affects the cells that produce mucus, sweat and digestive juices. Normally, these secretions are thin and slippery, but in cystic fibrosis, a defective gene causes the secretions to become THICK and STICKY. The heavy mucus associated with cystic fibrosis clogs the tubes that carry air in and out of your lungs.
🟣 How Salt therapy Helps
▫️Reduces the rate of lung infections
▫️Reduces the rate of sinus infections
▫️Relieves coughing and wheezing
🟣 How it Works
It can help patients with CF by INCREASING THE CILIARY TRANSPORT of MUCUS and CHANGING the CONSISTENCY of the mucus which is usually thick and sticky, acting as a plug in the ducts and airways. By changing the consistency of the mucus, it can therefore be removed from the lungs more easily by coughing.
🟤 Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) 🟤
Reduces your breathing problems.
Chronic Bronchitis & Emphysema RESTRICTS the lungs from functioning properly, causing WHEEZING and BREATHLESSNESS. These two conditions which have similar symptoms and are often referred to as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease or COPD.
🟤How Salt therapy Helps
▫️Improves breathlessness
▫️Reduces the rate of lung infections
▫️Relieves coughing and wheezing
🟤 How it Works
Salt Therapy can help relieve the symptoms of COPD by making it EASIER TO GET RID OF MUCUS and help the sufferer to BREATHE MUCH EASIER as a result. By removing the mucus and restricting the development of bacteria within the lungs, the risk of secondary bacterial infection is reduced.
