If you want to revitalise yourself and calm your nerves, visit Mayo’s first salt therapy spa at Diamond’s Car Park, Ballina.
Salt has the natural ability to balance the positive charge by binding the excessive positive ions with its negative ions. Therefore, the neutralising forces of salt can cancel out positively charged harmful electromagnetic vibrations in our environment, as well as in our body. Hence salt therapy has destressing, relaxing effects and it is believed to be beneficial for calming the nervous system.
Salt therapy is 100 per cent drug free and is a scientifically proven treatment for respiratory and skin conditions.
During the treatment, a micro climate similar to that in a natural salt cave is simulated. Each session, in the relaxing and calming environment, lasts for 45 minutes. Patients sit in an artificial salt cave and breathe in the dry agent, which is immediately transported to the smallest bronchia and to other parts of the respiratory tract.
There are two treatment rooms in the spa, one for parents and children and one for adults.
Private sessions, for those who have skin conditions and want to have their skin exposed to the salt, can also be accommodated.
Salt room therapy is most effective when it is administered at least twice a week or more frequently. To make an appointment, visit Western Salt Therapy Spa, Diamond’s Car Park, Ballina. Phone 096 73587.
