Asthma has exploded as a major and growing health problem in recent decades. Worringly, the UK has one of the highest prevalence rates for asthma in the world with an estimated 5.2 million of the population suffering from the condition. That’s 1 in every 5 households.

It has long been believed that asthma and allergies are closely related and now a recent study has suggested that more than 50 per cent of asthma cases may be attributable to allergies and that the environment plays a major role in the development of asthma.

People have known about the benefits of salt therapy for centuries, where people would head down to the salt mines to relieve repiratory ailments, increase energy levels and improve the quality of their breathing.

Doctors and other health proffesionals have been recommending salt therapy to their patients as a 100% natural and effective alternative to chemical & manufactured treatments, including Dr Chris Steele, ITV’s resident GP during his popular feature slot on ‘This Morning’.

People have recognised the benefits of salt therapy (also known as speleotherapy) for centuries, where people would travel to salt mines as the salty air was seen to expand the airways of the respiratory system and help people feel more enegised and free of respiratory ailments. Curative mines are popular in europe and asia, such as the popular Wieliczka in Poland, Hallein in Austria or Praid in Romania.
