Natural Hay Fever Remedy
Airborne allergens, ranging from pollen and dust to mould spores, per dander and fibres, are the most common reasons for allergies, with an estimated 12 million people in Britain allergic to these substances. If allergies are not treated, they can also lead to nasal polyps or swollen nasal turbinates. Common symptoms are: coughing; wheezing; red, swollen eyes; sore throat; frequent nosebleeds; postnasal drip; mouth ulcers; heartburn; irritability and depression.

Bronchial mucosa before and after Salt Therapy (particles of dust, smoke and atmospheric pollutants)
Outside allergens: pollens, grasses etc
Indoor allergens: pet dander, dust mites, mould spores etc
Inhalation of salt aerosol is clinically proven to cleanse the respiratory system of the human body and to speed up the elimination of toxins. The size of the particles is the same as in natural Salt Caves — 1-5 μm. These so-called breathable particles penetrate into the bronchial tree in the form of finest crystals. Dry saline aerosol works as a “bronchial brush” for the airways.
A salt aerosol proved to have bactericidal effects, cleansing microbial flora of the respiratory tract, slowing down bacterial growth and increasing resistance to respiratory tract diseases. Salt aerosol is a well known decongestant; it reduces inflammation widening of the airway passages, restoring the normal transport of mucous secretion and free blockages in the bronchi and bronchioles leading to rapid elimination of the residual tar and foreign allergens. It also has a hyposensitizing effect: the body becomes less sensitive to a substance producing an allergic reaction and immunomodulating effect: it’s reducing IgE levels in the body. IgE is the antibody involved in allergic reactions.
Dry sodium chloride aerosol eliminates airborne pollen particles from the airways. The air composition strengthens immunity and better immunity decreases allergic reaction to pollens and other allergens. The treatment's efficacy is estimated at 75 - 98%.
Patients normally stop using antihistamine, steroids and other drugs after 5-10 sessions. Not because we ask them to do it but because they don't need it.
Salt Therapy is 100% natural, safe and drug-free, providing effective long-term relief for people suffering from hayfever. It can be used as a complementary treatment to prescribed medications or as a sole treatment. When Salt Therapy is used as a complimentary treatment, it can increase the effectiveness of prescribed medications, and decrease the amount prescribed medication. In order to help you choose evidence-based complementary/alternative treatment we would like you to get a better understanding of asthmatic disease and the treatment options available.

Salt Therapy Background
A few significant years of the history of Salt Therapy:
- Speleotherapy treatment discovered in 1843
- Medical device developed in 1989
- Speleotherapy clinic established in Toronto in 2001
- The Salt Cave clinic established in London in 2008
Hypertonic saline aerosol inhalation treatment or Salt Therapy is clinically proven:
- To clear mucus from the airways thus removing airflow obstruction
- To enhance mucociliary clearance mechanism in both asthmatic and healthy subjects
- To balance airway-surface liquid
- To provide anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effects
- To reduce bronchial hyperresponsiveness
- To improve lung function
- To help clear unwanted inhaled particles from lungs
- As a drug-free treatment for asthma, bronchitis, CF and sinusitis
Salt Therapy helps treat all major processes acting in the bronchi: swelling, inflammation, excessive mucus and bacterial infection. Salt is known for its bactericidal effect. Nowadays, salt is even used in swimming pools instead of chlorine to kill bacteria. Salt Therapy is also very effective in killing bacteria found in the mucus.
In most patients, after a course of Salt Therapy, airways become normal and symptoms disappear.
Efficiency rate of Salt Therapy treatment
The clinical state of 85% of the patients with mild and moderate bronchial asthma, 75 % with severe bronchial asthma, 98%- with chronic bronchitis, bronchiectasis and cystic fibrosis improved after Salt Therapy. The patients were examined 6 and 12 months after the first Salt Therapy course.
Here are some of the many benefits you could discover after Salt Therapy treatments:
- Breath easier after just a few sessions
- Alleviate sneezing, coughing, and shortness of breath
- Decrease your dosage of prescription medications, or even stop taking medications altogether
- Better handle triggers that provoke respiratory illnesses
- Prolong remission times
- Feel revitalized
- Improve general health and quality of life
Salt Therapy for Children with Hayfever
It is clinically proven that natural healing methods are a lot more effective with children because they react more intensively than adults do. Please note that there is no age limit for Salt Therapy. For further information about how Salt Therapy helps children please click here.

Client Testimonial
"I have noticed my peak flow improve I once measured it straight after a session and blew to 500 (Not sure what it measures) I just know anything below 250 is unpleasant to live with for me. I am now averaging 350/400 I did notice after visit 2 I felt better and on visit three I bought 10 sessions to then find I went down hill mouth ulcers sore throat and just felt a bit down. However nothing stopped me as I had heard it can happen. Then a week later I felt great again in fact considering I am now on no allergy tablets so far it's like a mini miracle. I went off to a garden centre this weekend no tissues in my pocket it's amazing how quickly you stop pilling tissues in your pockets everywhere you go and there I was smelling plants and was fine. "

"As soon as you walk in the cave you notice a difference. Any breathing discomfort is eliminated. It seems such a simple fact but you can really ‘breathe’ and it is such a relief. As a yoga teacher it is really important for me to find complimentary therapies that help release toxins and improve breathing. The Salt Cave is a beautiful relaxing environment to do just that. Some days I can stream with hayfever and it can ruin my day. The Salt Cave is a natural alternative to taking medication and instantly effective. I would recommend it to everyone."
