Salts of the Earth is the largest salt therapy business in Australia. Our mission is to help our local communities to live, sleep and breathe better.Salt therapy is a natural therapy which has been practised for over 100 years. A specialised Halogenerator grinds Pharmaceutical Grade salt into tiny breathable particles and disperses these micro particles into a salt room. Whilst in a session, the salt particles are inhaled deep into the lungs to help loosen congestion and cleanse the airways of smoke, dust, pollution, pollens and other allergens.Modern salt therapy has its origins in the salt mines and caves of Europe and Asia.In 1843, Polish physician Dr Felix Boczkowski discovered that men working in the salt mines at Wieliczka suffered fewer respiratory problems than the general population. He attributed this to the salt aerosols being inhaled by the miners in the underground environment. As the workers were mining the salt (through chiselling, grinding and hammering at the salt), micro-sized salt particles were being disbursed into the air.The use of salt mines for therapeutic purposes developed in many countries including Poland, Russia, Belarus, Romania, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Slovakia and Ukraine. In 1980, the Odessa Science Research Institute in Ukraine developed the first Halotherapy device. The machine replicated the grinding and crushing of salt and the dispersal of micro salt particles into the air to model the conditions in an underground salt mine. Thus, modern salt therapy (or ‘Halotherapyʼ) was born.Salts of the Earth are salt therapy specialists. Our centres are designed exclusively for salt therapy and utilise state of the art devices to optimise the conditions within our salt rooms.
