As we age, our skin becomes the first organ that relentlessly reflects the influence of time and life’s demands. Considering that our skin is the most exposed part of our body, it becomes evident that its condition significantly affects not only our physical but also our mental well-being.
What causes skin aging and how to fight it
Skin aging is a complex process influenced by genetics, lifestyle, nutrition, stress, and other factors. It manifests as changes in skin texture and color, as well as the deepening of wrinkles. The skin becomes thinner and drier, losing its resistance to damage. This is exacerbated by the thinning of the hydrolipidic layer due to reduced secretion of sebum, resulting in a loss of flexibility.
Skin aging can generally be divided into two categories. The first is intrinsic aging, a biological process that affects the entire body and depends on genetics and physiology. The second category is extrinsic aging, which is associated with our lifestyle and exposure to various external factors such as sun, smoking, and stress.
Fortunately, we can slow down the skin aging process with high-quality skincare products, dietary supplements, or plastic surgery. A less-known but highly effective method for reducing the signs of aging is salt therapy.
Skin aging symptoms
- thinning (atrophy) of the skin with visible vascular pattern
- coarser and drier skin texture
- formation of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin
- increased sensitivity to UV radiation
- susceptibility to infection
- slower skin cell renewal associated with less effective healing processes
- decreased subcutaneous fat
Salt therapy for slowing skin aging
Dry salt therapy is an excellent solution for improving the overall quality and appearance of the skin.
Salt therapy restores the function of the skin barrier, which is responsible for maintaining moisture in the skin and protecting it from irritants. This reduces uncomfortable dryness, leaving the skin pleasantly hydrated.
Salt therapy effectively flushes out accumulated toxins and mucus from the lungs, preventing the elimination of these substances through the skin. This promotes detoxification of the body and cleanses the skin from rashes, acne, and pigmentation spots while preventing potential deterioration.
Through salt therapy, an overall improvement in skin appearance and texture can be achieved. The skin becomes softer, smoother, and gains a healthier look.
Salt micro-particles act as natural antioxidants combating free radicals and the skin aging process. Upon contact with the skin, they balance its pH and activate microcirculation, promoting skin regeneration and enhancing its firmness and elasticity. This shields the skin from premature aging, reduces wrinkles and puffiness, and allows for better absorption of skincare products.
Regular salt therapy can be a beneficial part of skincare, regardless of age. It promotes a healthy skin aging process, reduces the occurrence of fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging.
Recommended halotherapy treatment plan
To attain enduring benefits, we advise adhering to the following frequency and duration of salt therapy sessions.
Although even a less frequent sessions can help, the crucial factor for achieving lasting results is maintaining consistency and regularity. This approach should continue until you start to feel some improvement. Once that occurs, you can gradually reduce the frequency of visits to our studio and incorporate salt therapy into your routine based on your individual preferences and availability. This will help bolster your immune system, enhance overall health, reduce stress, or serve as a relaxation method.

While we can’t turn back time, we can look and feel beautiful at any age. Salt therapy is a natural way to support not only a healthy skin aging process but overall health as well. Give your skin a chance to regenerate. It’s an investment that certainly pays off in the long run.
