Frequently asked questions
What is the Himalayan Salt Cave?
Our Himalayan Salt Cave is very unique. We imported 16 tons of freshly mined salt directly from the Himalayan mountains. That's 32,000 pounds! We created a sacred space as this salt surrounds you on all four walls and the floor beneath your feet. It is all pure, pristine gorgeous Himalayan salt. We were careful NOT to use any mortar between the bricks, as our room is a breathing therapy room and you don't want mortar giving off toxic fumes into the air. The room is large and can comfortably accommodate 14 people in our luxury zero gravity chairs.
Our Founder cut, carved, and placed each little piece of the exquisite Tree of Life mural by hand. You really have to see this amazing custom mural in person. Pictures really don’t do it justice. There’s definitely good intention and energy in this room!
A Himalayan Salt Cave session is 45 minutes. You sit in this gorgeous gem of a room and while you’re sitting here, you are also receiving breathing therapy. We diffuse pure pharmaceutical grade salt, broken into microscopic particles into the air, so you’re not only sitting in a room of salt, you’re breathing in therapeutic salted air.
You want to breathe in this salted air because on contact this salted air kills bacteria, viruses, and fungus in the sinuses, ears, throat and lungs.
Because this room is so unique, our Himalayan Salt Cave was voted one of the Seven Wonders in Utah Valley by Utah Valley Magazine.
