Relaxation and recovery with salt therapy and floating
Zoutgrot & Zo has three salt caves where salt therapy (halotherapy) is practiced. A place to relax and recover in peace and quiet. Halotherapy is derived from the Greek word halos, which means “salt,” and is used to relieve skin and lung conditions. The salt caves simulate a microclimate similar to that found in natural salt mines. A medically certified halogenerator atomizes microscopic particles of high-quality pharmaceutical salt, which penetrate deep into the lungs.
Although halotherapy does not have a curative effect, symptoms can be reduced by up to 35 to 85%. This significantly improves the quality of life. Salt therapy is completely natural and safe, and contributes to a stronger immune system, improved lung function, and a reduction in inflammation and bacterial load.
Halotherapy is used for conditions such as:
- Asthma
- Bronchitis
- COPD
- Cystic fibrosis
- Hay fever
- Long COVID
- Sinusitis
- Colds
- Acne
- Eczema
- Psoriasis
Floating in magnesium salt: weightless relaxation
In addition to halotherapy, it is also possible to float in a bath with magnesium salt. The high concentration of salts allows you to float effortlessly, while the water is at body temperature. The bath can be used open or closed, depending on the need for stimulus reduction.
Floating offers a feeling of complete relaxation and weightlessness. Magnesium is absorbed through the skin and supports both physical and mental recovery.
Benefits of floating:
- Reduction of stress and the stress hormone cortisol
- Improved sleep quality through increased melatonin production
- Relief from chronic pain conditions such as osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, and rheumatism
- Faster muscle recovery after intensive exercise
- Positive influence on mental health in cases of burnout or depressive symptoms
- Increased energy and resistance thanks to magnesium, also known as the “Happy Mineral”
- Afterwards, you can relax in the relaxation room with a drink.
