Our Whangarei salt therapy room uses state of the art equipment and pharmaceutical grade salt.
Our Salt
We use only Pharmaceutical grade Sodium Chloride produced from the great Southern Oceans utilising natural resources in a process that is sustainable and environmentally friendly. Pharmaceutical grade Sodium Chloride is manufactured for applications requiring a high purity API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) and is produced on a dedicated GMP certified production line.
Our Halogenerator
We use a PRIZSALT+ dry salt aerosol generator to crush and grind the salt into microscopic particles and then disperse it throughout the salt room. More about Prizma…
Our Air Conditioning
The ClimatecNZ Air conditioning is a specifically designed air conditioning system, ensuring infection control is managed through continual clean air flow and complete air exchange after each session.
Our Salt Room
The Salt Room seats 8 in our comfortable reclining chairs and you will find gentle music and low lighting to aid relaxation and creation of a peaceful environment in which you need just relax and breathe in the salt-infused air.
Each session lasts 40 minutes and is dependent upon your age and health condition. Our halogenerator is able to be configured for different health conditions and the amount of salt dispersed can be altered based on health needs, for example lower amounts for children. The Salt Room is a warm 23 degrees C, the environment is dry with a state of the art air conditioning system keeping the room temperature constant and air continually clean and refreshed.
