[aageneral] Salt Therapy and its European well-known beneficial effects in respiratory disea
Salt Therapy and its European well-known beneficial effects in
respiratory diseases
The benefits of salt therapy (also called Halotherapy) or
speleotherapy are well known and documented in Europe. Halotherapy
uses dry aerosol micro particles of salt and minerals to treat
respiratory diseases and seeks to replicate the conditions of
speleotherapy (from Greek speleos=cave), a treatment that has been
practiced in old salt mines of Eastern Europe since the early 19th
century.
In the mid 18th Century a Polish health official Felix Botchkowski,
noticed that the workers of salt mines did not get ill with lung
diseases. He wrote a book about the effects of salt dust in 1843.
His successor M. Poljakowski founded a Salt Spa in Velicko near
Krakow, which is still in operation. During the Second World War
salt mines were often used as bombproof shelters. After spending
time there many people who suffered from asthma felt that their
health had gotten better! Today there are many salt sanatoriums in
Europe (Austria, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Russia ).
The Halotherapy belongs to the category of the physical therapies
non-drug and non invasive treatments of diseases. In the former
Soviet Union, medical researchers engaged in a concerted effort to
develop physical therapies in order to avoid the costs and side
effects of drug therapy as well as microbial and tumour resistance.
Russia has become the world leader in developing and testing new and
increasingly effective physical therapies. Many of the clinical
trials have focused on Halotherapy as a treatment of asthma and
chronic bronchitis and also very effective as a main or adjuvant
therapy across the entire range of upper and lower respiratory tract
diseases.
Respiratory diseases are a major cause of morbidity and mortality
worldwide. Most drug therapies of respiratory diseases have only
palliative effects, and many have significant side effects,
especially those with corticoids or steroids. So, a physical therapy
like Halotherapy is greatly needed.
Speleotherapy also makes a great demand on patients' time. The mines
are not conveniently located for most people and the total cost is
fairly significant.
The effectiveness of speleotherapy is not acknowledged in all
countries of the world, but in countries like Romania (Praid,
Tg.Ocna, Seiged, Sovata, Slanic, Ocna), Poland (Wieliczka), Germany
(Teufelshöhle), Austria (Hallen, Solzbad-Salzeman), Armenia,
Belarus, Bulgaria, Hungary, Russia, Slovenia, Ukraine, Nakhichevan
mines in Azerbaijan, the salt aerosol plays an important role in the
treatment of chronic respiratory diseases, working well with or
without medical treatment and without any known side effects.
Because of these, pregnant women with asthma or other respiratory
diseases could use this therapy without any harm to the child. Very
well known and appreciated in these middle-eastern European
countries, this therapy is covered by the public health care system.
In Romania there are also many salt lakes - Sovata with 7 salt
lakes, Ocna Sibiului with 52 salt lakes in S-W of Transilvania, very
well known in the treatment of infertility, metabolic diseases, skin
diseases. These salt lakes were usually formed by collapsing of salt
caves ceilings. All these salt lakes have different salinity,
increasing with deepness from 9g/l to 320g/l.
This salt therapy being very well known for its beneficial effects,
a Romanian inventor put his mind at work and developed a device that
is able to reproduce a speleotherapy micro environment in your home
in an affordable and convenient way. Internationally recognized,
with Gold and Silver medal at "Salon International des Inventions",
Geneva and "World Exhibition of Innovation, Research and New
Technology", Brussels, this Romanian invention brings new hopes in
the natural treatment of chronic respiratory diseases.
The inventor thought this device as an air salinizer that uses
forced ionization of the indoor air by salt sublimation creating a
micro climate of dry aerosol salt therapy in your living space. He
used a natural process of salt crystallization to obtain salt micro
crystals under 5µm in diameter, invisible to human eyes, being able
to penetrate deep into the lung. The device uses only natural salt
from within the mountain of salt, untreated or touched by the human
processing technology.
Based on clinical studies, the inhaled saline has bactericide,
mucokinetic, hydrophilic, anti inflammatory properties, reducing
inflammation in the whole respiratory tract, absorbing edema from
the mucosa lining the airway passages leading to widening of the
airway passages, restoring the normal transport of mucus and unclog
blockages in the bronchi and bronchioles leading to rapid
elimination of the residual tar and foreign allergens, all of these
in a natural process.
Edema of the nasal mucosa and the oropharynx and soft palate,
causing nasal obstruction and snoring is diminished, leading to
widening of the airway passage in the nose and the tubes of the
sinuses and improving the sinuses drainage and reducing snoring.
In the auditory tube, edema of the Eustachian tube causing ear
infection, is also diminished, leading to widening of the airway
passages, better drainage and better aeration behind the tympanic
membrane.
The salt therapy was found to have beneficial effects in the
treatment of:
Asthma and Chronic Bronchitis
COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)
Allergic Rhinopathy or Hay Fever
Cystic Fibrosis
Sinusitis
Ear Infections
Smoking Cough
Various acute or chronic respiratory disease
Reduce snoring and activates better sleep by clearing the
airway passages in oropharyngeal region
Increased resistance to Cold & Flu by opening and clearing
the nasal airway and improving the drainage of the sinuses
Humidifies the bronchial secretions reducing broncho-spasm
and facilitating elimination of the smoke residual tar, phlegm expel
and other allergens
Improves the quality of the indoor air by eliminating the
dust, cigarette smoke, bad odours, mould and mites, having
bactericide reduction properties.
The salt therapy is a natural method of therapy and does not involve
any risk and is finally adapted to the living space. However, this
is NOT a substitute for medical treatment and should only be used as
an adjuvant helping to improve the quality of patients' life,
reducing the antibiotics and corticoids or steroids intake, reducing
the rate of annual hospitalizations and decrease the frequency of
respiratory diseases attacks.
