Indications and contraindications will be sorted out later, and now let's talk a little about how it “works”.
Treatment Room Action
Salt rooms are created artificially. To obtain the desired microclimate, special medical equipment is used. Thanks to him, the air is filled with particles of salt aerosol. Throughout the treatment, its concentration is maintained. Aerosol has healing properties on the human body. In addition to the concentration of salt particles, the pressure, humidity and temperature necessary for the human body are supported here. The room itself does not contain microorganisms and allergens. Comfortable chairs for patients provide an opportunity to comfortably sit and get psychological relief. There are play areas for children.

Remember
A single visit to the halochamber will not lead to a visible result. To achieve the expected effect, you need to undergo at least one course of treatment. It consists of ten sessions of thirty or forty minutes. It is worth talking about the cost of the Salt Cave service. The price per session varies from 190 to 300 rubles, and a subscription for ten visits will cost you from 1,500 to 2,800 rubles. For those who urgently need a salt cave, price is an important factor.
