February is for Love of_______ You fill in the blank! We open our hearts and recognize the love and respect we have for each other and the sentient beings of our world.
What is the first thing we do when we are by the ocean? Breathe in the salt infused air! Filled with negative ions and salt particles, Mother Nature gives us the gift of opening up airway passages and the overall sense of wellbeing. A 45 minute session in the BSC can give you the benefits of what is equivalent to 4 days by the ocean, the difference being DRY salt isn’t already saturated with moisture. Salt is hygroscopic, absorbs moisture and acts like a sponge attracting bacteria and pollutants through the respiratory tract removing buildup that cause various respiratory aliments and conditions. Book yourself and your loved ones for a respiratory cleaning today!

After a stressful and busy first half of the year, relaxing during the summer is essential to revive yourself and feel good. Visiting the Bloomington Salt Cave can help! One 45 minute Halotherapy session provides the healthful benefits of 4 days by the seaside and then some. The way being by the seaside and being in the Salt Cave is similar is the Negative Ions and the SALT you breathe in. The difference is that the salt by the ocean is already saturated with water, therefore, not as effective at drawing out toxins and allergens, or reducing inflammation. Super dry Salt Air is Hygroscopic, absorbing toxins and inflammation, therefore opening up airway passages so you can get a good Clean Breath. It is naturally anti-bacterial, antimicrobial. Negative Ions increase our serotonin levels, giving a overall sense of well being. Safe and effective for people of all ages!
