4 Reasons to visit a salt cave this summer
The season many of us have been waiting for has finally arrived, SUMMER! The kids are home from school and it’s finally time to hit the beach and work on your tan! However, you may need to take a break to care for your sunburned skin, soothe achy muscles, and heal your mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. Not to mention, you may be looking for something different to do with the kids especially when it is too hot or rainy. There are 4 reasons why visiting a salt room is the perfect solution:
- Help your skin heal from sunburn
There’s a reason why the beach is so relaxing. The salt in the water contains negative ions that help people relax, as well as healing minerals that ease asthma, respiratory issues, and soften the skin, hair and nails.
As anyone who does salt therapy knows, salt therapy has this effect and is magnified when under the proper conditions, such as sitting in a comfortable, relaxing room where for 45 minutes you can let go of the world, and let salt work its magic!
Just Breathe is a good option to consider this summer if you still want to receive all the relaxing benefits of the beach, only your sunburnt skin needs a break. It’s also the perfect plan B for when the weather doesn’t go your way, and the beach day you planned gets rained out!
2. Soothe those achy muscles.
Summer is a great time for hikes, pick-up games of basketball, baseball, or softball, and chasing the kids with water balloons. Unfortunately, all that movement leads to sore muscles. Salt therapy has anti-inflammatory properties that allow our muscles to loosen and heal. And, if the salt therapy alone isn’t enough, consider booking a Thai or Swedish massage or a Trager® session with one of our skilled, licensed massage therapists.
3. Heal your physical, mental, or spiritual well-being
Unfortunately, depression and anxiety does not take time off for the summer. If you struggle with any of these, salt therapy can help. Those negative ions that are released into the air help change your body chemistry so that we feel calmer, less anxious, and less stressed.(Plus, it doesn’t hurt that cell phones are not allowed in the salt room.)
Just Breathe also has regularly scheduled Guided Meditations, Destress and Relax classes, and yoga classes available to help you heal.
4. We love kids!
Kids 3 months and up are encouraged to enjoy salt therapy with their guardians. If you are looking for something to do when the weather is too hot or too rainy, enjoy a salt session. Please, call to schedule a family session. They can play with our salt crystals or enjoy other quiet activities while you join them and the whole family gets the benefits of experiencing salt therapy including symptom relief from allergies, asthma, colds (summer colds – UGH!), psoriasis, eczema, anxiety, and so much more and… it’s a great place for kids to get their summer reading in too! 😊
