Welcome to the Healthy Salts Main Page
Salt is a vital element in the wellbeing of the human body, providing two essential elements for our health: sodium and chloride ions. Neither of these elements can be manufactured by the body itself and so have to be sourced from our food.
What do these elements do? Sodium controls the volume of fluid in the body and helps to maintain the acid-base level. Although some of the body’s sodium can be found in organs and cells, 40% is found in the bones and a staggering 55% in blood plasma and other extra cellular fluid. Sodium is also vital in the conduction of nerve impulses in the body, in the movement of nutrients in cells and the maintenance of blood pressure.
Chloride ions also have important functions in the human body: helping maintain blood volume and blood pressure and the pH balance of bodily fluids. It is also one of the vital elements in our body’s gastric juices, essential for the digestion of food.

Himalayan Crystal Salt.
Himalayan Crystal Salt is a 'full spectrum' salt containing 84 minerals and trace elements including some that are highly beneficial to the human body such as iodine and potassium. You can see them in the pink colour of this salt. Unfortunately, regular table salt that you find in restaurants and on supermarket shelves has been bleached and stripped of this unique combination of trace minerals and refined down to just white sodium chloride and anti-caking chemicals. Try some of our Himalayan Crystal Salt. You'll never go back to table salt.
Epsom Salts
The wonderful benefits of Epsom salts have been known for hundreds of years. The salt derives its name from a bitter saline spring in Epsom, Surrey, England. Epsom Salt is made up of magnesium and sulfate and when used as a bath soak, acts as a sedative for the nervous system, helping to relax muscles. It also draws toxins from the body (making it good for insect bites). It is a natural emollient, defoliator and skin mask. It can remove excess oil from hair and increase hair volume.
Magnesium Chloride Flakes
Magnesium has been used for hundreds of years in traditional Chinese medicine and is referred to as 'The beautiful metal' by practitioners of this incredibly effective but universally ignored form of treatment.
Magnesium is crucial in over 300 fundamental biochemical processes in the body. And yet this ancient mineral is often overlooked for its medicinal properties and efficacy.
Soaking in magnesium salts has been shown to improve skin hydration, speed wound healing, enhance skin barrier function and decrease inflammation.
It’s especially efficacious for anyone with sensitive skin, especially children. It’s highly therapeutic for anyone suffering from psoriasis, eczema and other skin conditions. And it delivers extensive topical and cosmetic benefits because, being delivered through the skin, it’s easily assimilated and well-tolerated. It also relieves stress and aids relaxation.
Himalayan Crystal Salt Lamps
Our modern lives are full or electronic gadgets: computers, TV’s, mobile phones to name but a few. These have become essential in our lives, both at home and in the office, but all of them create harmful positive ions or ‘electronic smog’. This smog deteriorates the condition of the air in our living and working spaces which in turn may effect our physical and emotional state.
Fashioned from a solid chunk of pure Himalayan Crystal Salt, these lamps can help alleviate this smog by generating negative ions. These negative ions scrub the air clean. The heat from the bulb further enhances the de-ionizing effect of the salt lamps to create a truly positive effect; producing clean fresh air, as if walking next to the sea or outside after a rain storm.
Himalayan Crystal Salt Lamps are also thought to help with certain diseases. Bio-energy therapists and homeopaths in Western Europe have long considered the lamps beneficial to anyone suffering from allergies, respiratory and blood diseases.
Natural Lamps available in six different sizes.
The size of your Himalayan Crystal Salt Lamp is important because of the quantity of negative ions emitted from the lamp is directly related to its weight. Therefore, to get the full health benefits, it is advisable to choose a lamp of the correct size for your room.
| Room size | Weight of lamp |
| 6 sq.m | 2-3kg |
| 10 sq.m | 3-6kg |
| 15 sq.m | 6-10kg |
| 20 sq.m | 10-13kg |
