Himalayan Salt Saunas
We now have two Himalayan Salt Saunas to the gym!
The temperature in salt saunas can be anything between 48 and 75ºC, while the relative humidity is between 20% and 50%. These conditions favour the natural process of salt ionization.
The treatment and wellness experience using salt solutions is what is known as halotherapy. It is a complementary therapy which is totally natural. Users breathe in the saline air with its mineral origin and this provides important benefits, particularly to people suffering with respiratory (asthma, bronchitis, cystic fibrosis, sinusitis and seasonal allergies), dermatological, muscular and stress issues.
Salt saunas are currently seeing a rise in popularity for the numerous benefits they offer to the people who decide to try them:
- The benefits from absorbing small saline microparticles (from the Himalayan salt) through the skin and respiratory tract.
- They help to neutralise electromagnetic frequencies.
- It is an effective treatment against insomnia, stress and fatigue.
- They help reduce free radicals.
- They remove impurities from the skin, strengthen the immune system, oxygenate the blood, relieve allergies and reduce headaches.
- The duration of the sessions will depend on each particular case, but usually sessions last for 50-60 minutes for adults and 30-40 minutes for children.
Salt saunas are made up from a whole set of elements focused on being able to enjoy their benefits.
In addition to the structural, temperature and humidity conditions, the design also takes on a special importance regarding the attractiveness of the wellness space.
