How does Halotherapy Help? - Snoring and Sleep Problems

Did you know that snoring is one of the greatest disruptors of sleep, and it can fragment the natural progression of your sleep cycle? Snoring isn’t something to laugh at! 1in 5 adults are thought to have sleep apnea according to the American Heart Association. If your, or your partner’s, snoring has been bothering you… Now is the time to find relief with holistic, drug free, and non-invasive Halotherapy!

Snoring is the hoarse or harsh sound that occurs when your breathing is partially obstructed in some way while you’re sleeping. Snoring occurs when air flows past the relaxed tissues in your throat, causing them to vibrate as you breathe. “ You may think of snoring as a sometimes annoying or embarrassing side effect of sleep. But, before you discount your snoring as nothing out of the ordinary, consider this: people whose snoring is caused by severe sleep apnea have a 40% greater chance of dying early than do their peers. That’s because this sleep disorder is related to a host of health problems, from heart disease to depression,” warns sleep medicine expert Karl Doghramji, MD, medical director of the Sleep Center at Thomas Jefferson University and Hospitals in Philadelphia.

Multiple effects of Dry Salt Therapy on the body enable it to address sleeping issues with a variety of causes. Most basically, snoring and sleep apnea caused by obstructed air passages is relieved due to the antiemetic? and anti-inflammatory properties of salt particles. Air passages are opened and widened, and spasm of inflamed irritated tissue and smooth muscles are modulated resulting in restful breathing. In a controlled study, subjects found relief from sleep apnea previously treated by drugs or sleep apnea machines in a single session, with results improving daily as the treatment progressed.
