Why Himalayan Salt?
The purest salt on Earth
Himalayan Salt is known as the Purest Salt on Earth due to its minerals and 84 trace elements. Its properties create negative ions, which combat the effects of free radicals while producing a surprisingly relaxing sensation. Much like the feeling you get at the ocean or immediately following a storm, air charged with negative ions suppresses serotonin within the body, instigating higher energy levels and positive moods.
Himalayan Salt is an excellent addition to practically any space and will make you feel comforted, at ease, and protected. Not only are they beautiful to look at, but they also purify and detoxify the air.
In 2006, a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that inhaling a high concentration of Himalayan salt improved lung function in cystic fibrosis sufferers. Further studies prove that chronic asthma and bronchitis symptoms sincerely improved upon inhalation of a Himalayan salt-based solution.

How Himalayan Salt Walls Improve Health
Since we are in the era of technology, we are inevitably affected by electric smog - also known as positive ions- emitted by computers, smartphones, microwaves, and other electronics. Positive ions are harmful to humans; they can produce higher inflammation levels, mood swings, chronic pain, and worsened allergies. To combat the electric smog effects, we need negative ions produced only by natural environments such as forests, beaches, and waterfalls. Himalayan Salt is a natural ionizer due to its hygroscopic properties. When the Himalayan salt is heated, negative ions are segregated and purify the circulating air and increase the chemical levels of serotonin, helping to alleviate depression, relieve stress, and boost our daytime energy.
