Treat your family Flu and Cold with Salt Therapy

1. Treat your family Flu and Cold with Salt Therapy

2. season As the winter season is here, so is cold and flu season. As you head into work or school during this time of year, you often hear sniffles and coughing all around you. While there are many healthy habits that can be used to minimize the spread of germs, such as regular hand washing and covering coughs and sneezes, we all still succumb to the cold or flu every so often. As the cold and flu result from a viral infection, antibiotics are not a treatment option that can be used. This leaves current treatments available those that target symptoms and not actual recovery from the illness. A flu and cold treatment that does involve decreased recovery time is salt therapy. Salt therapy is effective in relieving symptoms, such as: trouble breathing, stuffy nose, sinus pressure, headache and sore throat. Not only does it ease these symptoms, but it also uses mechanisms to speed up recovery, helping you get back to normal faster.

3. What is Salt Therapy Salt therapy is administered by inhaling air with a high concentration of salt, resulting in increased salt within the airways. Traditionally, this therapy has been administered in salt caves, where the air is highly enriched with salt naturally, and patients would sit in these caves for certain time intervals to benefit from the therapy. As this is still done, these salt caves are highly inaccessible to the vast majority of the world’s population. To mimic these salt caves, there are facilities that have salt rooms. While also effective, a treatment session in these salt rooms is very costly, making them out of reach for people who are unable to regularly afford costly salt room treatments.

4. Benefit from salt therapy Luckily, there is an easy and affordable way to benefit from salt therapy. Salt machines are small devices that continuously release salt particles into the surrounding air. These devices can be purchased and used in your own home, making treatment incredibly easy, no matter how long or often the treatment sessions. As these machines are safe to use anywhere in your home, you can use them in your living areas and in the bedroom, maximizing your exposure to the salt particles and therefore the benefit from the therapy.

5. How exactly does this treatment work? The salt particles within the air get inhaled, and penetrate deep into the airways and lungs. As the salt enters the lining of the respiratory tract, they attract water into the lining, increasing fluidity of the mucus. During illness, the mucus lining often becomes thick and tough, both narrowing airways and losing its function of clearing pathogens from the airways effectively. The increased fluidity of the mucus allows it to function properly in trapping and expelling foreign pathogens or debris from the airways, while also opening up airways to ease breathing.
