“North America's largest Himalayan salt cave”
At Salt, our serene and beautiful salt caves are crafted from 45 tons of 250 million year old Himalayan crystal salt, the most pristine and unpolluted salt on Earth. The mineral content of the salt in our caves is identical to that of the primal ocean, which is the source of all life. Unlike regular salt, which has been processed and chemically refined, our Himalayan salt is pure and completely natural, containing 84 trace elements that are absolutely essential to our cellular health. Salt Cave therapy, also known as Halotherapy ("halo" means salt in Greek) and Speleotherapy ("speleo" means cave in Greek), is profoundly relaxing and can even improve your mood!
Our two Himalayan Salt Caves create a surreal environment to relax, recharge, and rejuvenate both body and mind. The cave walls and ceilings are made of 45 tons of backlit Jurassic-Age salt blocks and crystals, while the floor is covered with crushed salt. This ancient sea salt is laden with minerals, including magnesium, calcium, sodium, and potassium, all of which play a key role in our body’s health, function, and cellular communication. Visitors to our beautiful salt caves can relax in comfortable zero-gravity lounge chairs, or lie directly in the salt.
The air in the caves is infused with micro-salt particles that impart a therapeutic benefit when inhaled. Halotherapy, simply breathing in air saturated with salt particles, is known to be a natural and effective way to improve respiratory health. The healing atmosphere accompanied by soothing music is a natural way to enhance overall physical and mental health.
Historic records indicate that humans have long been using natural salt caves and mineral baths as places of healing and rejuvenation. In modern times, science has shown the health benefits of feeding your body pure and natural ingredients. Salt is known to have a vital biochemical role in our bodies for energy and cellular health.
For centuries, Eastern Europeans have traveled to cities in Germany and Poland to visit curative underground salt mines to relieve a variety of respiratory conditions and skin ailments, such as allergies and asthma, and eczema and psoriasis. Today, Salt brings this extraordinary healing experience to Santa Barbara ... simply sit back, relax and breathe in our beautiful caves. The micro particles of salt in the air help to decongest the lungs, and reduce inflammation in the airways, while soothing the skin and relaxing the body and mind. It's revolutionary.
