What happens during a session?

During sessions our halogenerator grinds pharmaceutical salt to a fine dust that is dispersed into the room for you to inhale. The salt rooms are designed for relaxation so you will want to sit back in our luxurious bean bag lounge chairs and breathe deeply. The doors to the salt room will close and remain closed during the session for the guest experience and also to make sure salt particles do not leave the room. If a guest arrives late we are not able to open the doors to the salt room to allow them in. 

What should I wear to my salt session?

You will want to wear comfortable clothing to your salt session. Please note that darker colored clothing may show salt, but it can easily be brushed off and will not harm your clothing. While we have fresh blankets for sessions, some people prefer to bring their own blanket.

The floor of the salt cave is covered with fine salt…think beach vibe!  Get ready to be barefoot. Due to the purity of the salt, shoes cannot be worn in the room without booties on.

Appointments

We encourage you to make an appointment, but walk-ins are welcome if there is available space. While there is no cancellation fee for regular salt sessions, we do ask that you are considerate of other guests wanting to book an appointment by giving us a 24-hour notice.

Actively Sick?

It is a common misconception that the time to try salt therapy is while you are actively sick. However, the best time to seek salt therapy is when you are healthy and using salt therapy for chronic illness or preventative treatment.

If you suspect that either you or your child are actively sick (or running a fever), please call to reschedule the appointment. Our ongoing goal is to maintain an environment of health and wellness. Once you or your child have been fever free for at least 24 hours you can schedule a new time for your appointment.

What should I expect to happen during my treatment?

Salt sessions last 45 minutes and is in a room that is surrounded with pharmaceutical grade salt on the walls and covering the ground. During a session it is best to close your eyes and take deep cleansing breath. Salt crystals provide negative ions that enhance the salt therapy experience.

No food or drink are allowed in the salt cave, but complimentary tea is provided in the lounge area.

Will I be alone for my treatment?

Our salt rooms can accommodate up to three people at a time. So, each session can have anywhere from one to three people.

Please contact us to book the salt room for a private event.

Is it safe for children to have salt therapy?

Yes, salt therapy is completely safe for children. Our salt therapy room is made for fun salt play time with beach toys.

*Parents are required to stay with their child and supervise them. There is no additional charge for one parent to attend with their child.

Is it safe to have salt therapy while pregnant?

Yes, it is completely safe and all natural to have salt therapy while pregnant. We do recommend always consulting with your physician prior to any new treatment. Many pregnant women find relief with respiratory or skin issues while pregnant and unable to take prescription medications. Salt therapy can also help boost the immune system.

Side Effects

Halotherapy is 100% natural, drug free, and safe. Post session some people have experienced a runny nose, slight cough, or chest tightness. This is usually due to mucus and toxins becoming dislodged in the body and working out of the body.

Smoking & Perfumes

We ask that anyone who is a smoker to please refrain from smoking prior to entering in the salt room. If you smell of smoke, you may be asked to reschedule. Prana is a smoke-free environment. The main reason we do not allow guests actively smelling of smoke is for our clients who have respiratory issues, like Asthma, COPD, or Cystic Fibrosis. The presence of the exhaled smoke or chemicals in it can trigger a reaction or an attack. 

Please refrain from use of any perfumes or essential oils before coming to Prana.  If you smell of heavy odors you will be asked to re-book.

Disclaimers

Halotherapy should never replace any medication prescribed by your doctor.

Halotherapy should be avoided if you are running a fever or have any of the following: active tuberculosis, cardiac insufficiency, COPD in its third stage, alcohol or drug use, unstable hypertension, and acute stages of respiratory disease.  If you currently use an inhaler for a medical condition, please bring your device to your session.

Day of Cancellations
