 The Importance of Properly Constructed Salt Cave.

Salt therapy is gaining popularity, leading to a surge in the construction of salt caves. However, it's concerning that about 60% of these caves are either ineffective or potentially dangerous. Many establishments are created without a proper understanding of the principles behind salt therapy. 


Some people mistakenly believe that the salt on the walls is merely decorative, forgetting that the very name “salt cave” signifies its purpose. The salt lining the walls is crucial for creating a microclimate similar to that found in authentic salt caves and salt mines, effectively promoting wellness. 


Climate control systems are essential to ensure customer safety, while salt generators play a key role in releasing therapeutic levels of salt into the air. If you leave a salt cave covered in salt, it's a sign that the salt levels are too high, which can pose health risks. Additionally, if the salt particles are too large, they won't provide any health benefits. 


As the trend grows, it’s vital to choose salt caves designed with proper knowledge and care to ensure a safe and beneficial experience for all.
