The Salt Cave and Spa in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, US, has opened its new healing cave made from 16,000 lbs (7,257kg) of imported Himalayan salt.
The spa invites guests to indulge in halotherapy (salt therapy), which clears the lungs from accumulated mucus making it easier to breathe. By reducing the inflammation in the lungs, killing bacteria and dislodging mucus that blocks the bronchioles, halotherapy is said to have healing qualities for skin conditions and immune deficiencies in addition to respiratory problems.
The spa facility offers a variety of massages including Thai massage, hot stone massage, hot salt massages, facials, body treatments, wraps and scrubs according to news website WVVA. Other treatments include herbal baths, reflexology, reiki and acupuncture.
Treatments are performed on an Amethyst Biomat which is an infrared heating mat which is supposed to improve circulation and reduce stress.
Yoga and meditation will also be carried out in the cave.
