Updated: Nov 24, 2021





A treasure with a history of 250 million years


Himalayan rock salt has a history of 250 million years. It was first discovered in the oldest salt mine in the world-the Keula salt mine in Pakistan. The movement of the plates causes the rock formations to continuously uplift, forming towering mountains, and at the same time locks the seawater inland, forming a shallow inland sea. The seawater is slowly dried and buried deep underground. After countless changes and squeezing of the earth's crust, it absorbs the aura of heaven and earth to form rich and mineral-rich sea salt deposits, from which more than 80 kinds of minerals beneficial to the human body are produced. It contains potassium, silicon, phosphorus, vanadium, and iron, which give rock salt its unique pink color.


Ancient salt therapy

Ancient healers and Greek philosophers have suggested inhalation therapy with the gas produced by salt mines to improve the respiratory system and some health problems. Monks in Medieval Europe often used salt caves to treat patients, so there were thousands of salt treatment rooms like this in ancient Europe.


Salt therapy, namely Halotherapy, Halo means salt in Greek. Salt therapy can be performed in different ways, such as immersing in salt-filled water; or spreading salt spaces all around to create an environment like a natural salt cave. The dry and highly dispersible natural rock salt suspended particles can enter the human respiratory system through breathing, and even reach the lungs, suck bacteria and clear mucus, and improve symptoms such as bronchitis, asthma, and allergies.


Today, with salt therapy becoming more and more popular, salt therapy SPA is becoming more and more common around the world.


In addition, among the six yoga cleansing methods recorded in the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, the nasal cleansing method uses cotton thread, salt water, and air to clean the nasal cavity, nasal passages, and sinuses to maintain smooth breathing, relieve nasal allergies, and prevent colds. Maintain the health of the olfactory nerve.


The new trend of modern rock salt health

Because Himalayan rock salt contains more than 80 beneficial minerals, it has been injected into different personal care products and foods in recent years.


You must ask, what are the benefits of the salt lamp?

One obvious benefit is the gentle color of Himalayan rock salt. After being mined from the salt mine, the inside is hollowed out to form a lamp hole, and by adding a light source inside, it radiates the orangish glow as a result of the mineral composition of the salt rock.


In contrast to the white light in office premises, our body feels like we are in the daytime. The color temperature of white light in an office is about 6000K, giving people a sense of spirit. But if you still use white light at night when you are off work, it will hinder the secretion of the hormone melatonin, leading to insomnia and physiological disorders, which are harmful to your health.


The unique rose pink color of Himalayan rock salt with light can emit a warm color spectrum of about 1500K-4000K. When our pupils receive this low color temperature light wave like the setting sun, the brain can consciously relax, which can help reduce stress and improve sleep quality. She is also a practical night light, providing you with soft and non-glaring light. It is especially suitable for the elderly who like to use mobile phones before going to bed, feed newborn babies at night, or have poor eyesight as a bedside night light.


Lighting the salt lamp allows you to easily change the mood of the environment and atmosphere, bringing you and your family a cozy and relaxing environment after a busy day, creating a freehand mood and warming up the romantic atmosphere.
