Dry Salt Therapy for Children

As our world has become increasingly polluted, there has been a rapid escalation in respiratory problems for both adults and children.  Asthma is the most chronic disease of childhood.  In the U.S., it is estimated that nearly five million children have asthma, and those numbers are on rise.  Asthma is a leading cause of emergency room visits, hospitalization and missed school days for children.

Children are more prone to breathing problems because their respiratory system does not fully develop until the age of nine.  The narrowness of nasal passageways in children and their higher risk of picking up viruses contribute to the frequency and severity of colds/flus and other respiratory conditions.  In addition, their lungs have difficulty filtering out large pollution particles.

However, clinical studies show that children respond remarkably quickly to salt room treatments.  Whether your child is suffering from allergies, an ear infection, frequent colds, or asthma, our Dead Sea Salt therapy can help reduce inflammation, open clogged passageways, loosen up mucus, and kill germs and bacteria in your child’s respiratory system.

In addition, salt therapy has been shown to boost the immune system, helping protect your child from future infections and illness.  The negative ions in the salt can also help soothe and calm your child, easing hyperactivity and the stresses of illness and/or pain.
