Performance Overview

Salt therapy can dramatically enhance body performance by improving lung function and increasing lung capacity. 

Salt therapy for
fitness & peak performance

There are several respiratory conditions that affect the body, such as airflow obstruction, exposure to airborne allergens and other inhaled particles, as well as other respiratory illnesses such as asthma and allergies. Salt therapy is an effective therapy that may improve these conditions.

Sitting in our salt room provides a healing environment that can help you reach your full athletic potential, whether you are a runner or a vocalist. Results may vary between clients and we recommend you discuss the use of salt therapy with your doctor.

Performance Issues

Maintain Stamina/Endurance

Salt therapy can have a naturally relaxing effect on your body that works to revitalize your energy and normalize your breathing pattern. Once you’ve managed your breathing pattern, you can perform better by using less breath, helping you achieve better results.

Maintain Peak Performance

The anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antimicrobial properties in salt help clear your airways of bacteria and toxins while opening the respiratory tract increasing breathing volume. Maintain your momentum by staying healthy and reducing the severity of your triggers over time.

Increase Oxygen Flow

When your nasal passages and sinuses are clogged, it becomes more difficult to supply oxygen to your muscles, slowing down the recovery process. Salt therapy can help tear down mucus build up to clear sinuses, so you can continue to train hard without any injuries.

Joint Pain

Salt penetrates layers of the skin and helps reduce fluid buildup or swelling in the joints. This makes everyday tasks less challenging.

Performance Benefits

Improve
physical endurance

Correct your breathing pattern with salt therapy and have more air in reserve to perform at an optimal level. Achieve better performance with less breath each time at The Salt Suite®.

Speed up recovery between training sessions & hard labor

Not only can salt therapy clear your airways to speed the time in which oxygen reaches your muscles for recovery, but it can also help you sleep better at night. Working out causes microscopic tears in the muscles which heal overnight.

Increase
lung capacity

If there is waste in the respiratory system, oxygen will be delivered at a much slower rate, affecting the efficiency of your workout. Clear your airways with salt therapy for increased lung capacity and improve your overall fitness performance.

It's a miracle for us, you got a customer for life!"

Ethan slept through the night with no coughing, wheezing or snoring!"

You have no idea how much of a blessing this is to us both. Thank you again and I will see you later! "

"On my first visit, the lights were lowered and I sat quietly reading a book. With each breath, I could breathe more deeply than before.

I was able to fall asleep without my usual coughing session, sleeping pills or Tylenol, my constant companions.”
- Barbara W.
"The atmosphere was just what any migraine sufferer needs…a quiet soothing, low light calming environment.
