Halotherapy and Eczema

Eczema, also known as dermatitis, is a collective term for skin conditions characterized by inflammation, itching, and redness. It often occurs at all ages and can be hereditary. While it predominantly affects younger children, it can also develop later in life.

Eczema results from an excessive immune response to various triggers. These triggers can include substances that come into contact with the skin, such as perfumes, nickel, adhesives, or soap, as well as environmental factors like sun exposure, wind, heat, and hot water.

Halotherapy is antibacterial and reduces the likelihood of skin inflammation (e.g., after scratching). It significantly reduces itching, calms the skin, and diminishes redness. The skin becomes softer and more even-toned, with improved oxygen transport. Halotherapy also boosts resistance and strengthens the immune system.

The Treatment

For skin issues, the affected parts of your body should be exposed directly to the salt dispersed in the air. Therefore, when visiting the salt chamber, please wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the areas needing treatment.

We kindly request that if you have skin conditions, bring your own towels (or bath towel) and possibly a bathrobe to avoid direct skin contact with the chair cushions.

In the salt chamber, you will be treated alongside others who have skin conditions.

Recommended Sessions

15 - 20 sessions

To be effective, it's advised to attend 2-3 times per week over an extended period, with follow-up sessions as needed.

I was covered from head to toe with eczema. What a misery of not sleeping, feeling insecure, not feeling well, and the itching drove me crazy. After 10 visits to the salt chamber, it started to improve significantly. I regained some hope because I had truly tried everything. Even the other regular customers of the salt chamber noticed. Wow, you're looking great, they told me again. Wonderful! Thanks also to Marleen for your attention and tips. I will keep coming, even though it's much better now. I never want to experience that misery again!

Ben (51)

Through a colleague, I learned about the salt chamber. My colleague had been going there for a while and said, "That's something for you too, Ben." I was skeptical at first, but decided to give it a try. I mainly have eczema on my face, arms, and legs, which isn't pleasant when you have a representative role. People always notice it. However, I immediately felt comfortable in the salt chamber. Initially, my face stung a bit after each session, but after the third time, this discomfort disappeared. Around the 10th session, my face started to improve noticeably. My arms and legs improved more slowly, but the itching is almost gone. The combination with magnesium gel also works great. When I have stress at work, I notice the eczema returns more quickly. Now, I'm trying to live more consciously: healthy eating, the salt chamber, and exercising more often. I recommend it to everyone.

After an antibiotic treatment I received for a respiratory tract infection, I developed eczema all over my body. I underwent a treatment regimen of 15 sessions within one month, and all my symptoms have disappeared!
