Himalayan Bath Salts

'Bathing in Himalayan salts for 15-30 minutes feels the same as fasting for 3 days'

Slip into a sheer ocean of energy with these magical bath salts.

Imagine taking a dip in the pristine primal ocean, some 250 million years ago.

Now you can. Relax, while your body absorbs the 84 vital nutrients and your skin attains the soft glow of health.

Himalayan bath salts, contain 84 essential minerals, more than any other bath salt, including magnesium, potassium, bromide and calcium which are readily absorbed into the skin during a 15-30 minute bath.

Himalayan bath salt is known to alleviate severe cases of dry skin disorders. Dip into a Himalayan salt bath and it will stimulate circulation, hydrate the skin, increase moisture retention, promote cellular regeneration, detoxify the skin and help heal dry, scaling, irritated skin. Salt water bathing reduces inflammation of the muscles and joints, relaxes muscles and relieves pain and soreness and will improve psoriasis.

Add Himalayan bath salt to a bath tub; and fill the bath with warm water. Make sure the water temperature is around body temperature - 37C for maximum benefit. Do not have the water too hot as the crystal salts will maintain the original temperature and you could overheat. For a mineral treatment soak for around 15min or soak 30 minutes for a full body detox.

If possible, rest for about 30 minutes after bath.

Himalayan Crystal Salt has been reported in the book, Water and Salt, written by Barbara Hendel M.D. and biophysicist Peter Ferreira as having the same 84 elements that make up our bodies. Life on earth is not possible without salt. Most salt consumed today only consists of two elements, Sodium and Chloride. This is because the salt chemical cleaning process has stripped most of the original healthy elements away. Himalayan Salt Crystals are not tainted by any such methods and will always be the way the earth made them, natural.

Use salt water baths or soaks to help heal your body

Your skin is an excretive organ that mirrors the condition of your intestines. When you take a brine bath, the salt minerals penetrate your skin in the form of ions. This stimulation will cause natural cell growth in your living cell layers. Bio-energetic weak points will be balanced and your body's energy flow will be activated. While anyone can benefit from a brine bath, it is particularly soothing for those with:

Various skin diseases.
Rheumatism and joint diseases.
A post-operative care regimen.
Gynaecological diseases.
Recurring infections.
Severe insect bites, blisters or wounds.
Skin irritations from poison oak, ivy or sumac.

The detoxifying effect of a brine bath can be compared to a 3-day fast. Since salt is also a disinfectant, several people can safely use the same water. To get the full benefits of a therapeutic natural crystal salt bath, the right salt concentration is critical. The salt concentration has to be at least the same as that of your body fluids (approximately 1%) to activate the osmotic exchange ratio. The formula for a 1% solution is 1.28 ounces of salt per gallon of water.

Since a full tub normally takes from 100 to 120 liters (27 - 32 gallons) of water, at least 1.2 kg. (2.6 pounds) of natural salt is required.
To avoid using body energy to balance the temperature, the water should be approximately 37° Celsius (97° Fahrenheit). Your bath will remain at a constant temperature because the biophysical composition of the salt is so strong - it causes the molecules to move in a constant rhythm.
Do not use any bath additives, soaps, or oils.
Your bath should last 20 to 30 minutes. During this time, the temperature and the makeup of the brine bath is comparable to the amniotic fluid in which the embryo floats in the prenatal state.
Do not shower off, simply dry off with a towel.
After your brine bath, you should rest for at least 30 minutes.

WARNING: While brine baths have a positive effect on many ailments, they are also demanding on your circulatory system. If you suffer from weak or poor heart circulation, always consult your doctor first.

How to use the bath salt for other specific therapies

When water and salt combine, the positive ions of the salt surround the negative ions of the water molecules and the negative ions of the salt surround the positive ions of the water molecules. The ions become hydrolysed and the geometrical structure of the salt and the water is changed to form a completely new structure.

In this process called hydration, the biophotons (photons emitted spontaneously by all living systems) stored in the crystal salt are set free in the brine, which occurs without any additional energy. This is pure hydration energy. You can make your own brine right in your own home.

You can start to use crystal salt for these purposes by putting enough in water until the solution becomes saturated. This solution is called brine and is also referred to as "sole" (so-lay). The crystal salt is available in two forms for your convenience: a pulverized version you can use on your food; and larger blocks you can dissolve in water.

To use the Himalayan Bath Salt for therapies you can follow these steps:

Loosely fill a closable glass container (Mason jar) with several crystal salt stones. Add natural spring water or purified water, completely filling the container
After approximately 24 hours, look to see if the salt crystals have completely dissolved. If so, add a few more crystals. When the water can no longer dissolve any more salt, the salt crystals will sit at the bottom of the jar without dissolving. At this point the solution will have become saturated at 26%, and is ready for use.
The glass can be refilled again and again with water and salt, continuing this process. This brine solution is completely sterile and germ-free allowing it to be stored for years in a closed glass container without changing or decomposing.

There are many ways to directly experience the natural medicinal potency of brine including drinking it and seasoning your favorite foods with it, bathing in the brine solution, and inhaling steam from brine. You can also use the Himalayan Crystal Salt to substitute for cooking salt, but it should not be heated over 42º Celsius.

While you will certainly find many other beneficial uses for sole (brine) made from Himalayan Crystal Salt, here are some common problems that the sole may help with:

Acne - Try a brine face wash, or the Himalayan Crystal Salt mixed with fragrance free, natural soap as a face or body scrub.
Ear Infections- Use the brine as eardrops for ear infections.
Foot Fungus- Soothe your feet with a brine foot soak.
Motion Sickness - Try wearing salt in a pouch around your neck for its energetic balancing properties.
Nasal Congestion - Try a nasal wash with a few grains of crystal salt in ¼ cup of warm water.
Psoriasis - Rub brine directly on the affected skin and let dry.
Sore Throats - Gargle with warm brine solution, but don't swallow.
