HALOTHERAPY

FAQs

  • Is there anything I should know before visiting Salt and Detox Oasis?

    DO NOT smoke two hours before any session. Do not wear any perfumes, colognes, or fragranced lotion two hours before any session. Do not eat a big meal before any session. Be sure to drink plenty of water before any session to get the maximum benefits. 

  • What is Halotherapy?

    Halotherapy, also known as Dry Salt Therapy it's a holistic approach that mimics the microclimate of a salt cave. Dry salt air is dispersed into an enclosed environment (room, bed, booth, cabin) by a Halo generator. Salt absorbs and removes the allergens, toxins, and foreign substances in your lungs and sinuses. Salt also reduces any inflammation and opens airway passages making it easier to breathe. Halotherapy is a holistic, drug-free, natural therapy to promote better breathing, healthier skin, sounder sleep, improved physical fitness and endurance, and overall wellness. 

  • What to Expect?

    Salt and Detox Oasis Salt Cave’s therapy room can hold 6 people at a time. While walk-ins are welcome, we recommend having an appointment to ensure we can accommodate you. You’ll enjoy a relaxing 45-minute session, during which salt air will be pumped into the room to aid with respiratory and skin ailments.


    Please arrive 10-15 minutes before your desired session time. Sessions start every hour, on the hour.  You will not be able to enter the salt room once a session starts. 


    While relaxing in our energy room, you’ll inhale the dry, salt-enriched air deep down into the lungs, where the healing benefits impart the greatest results. The salt widens the airways and loosens any mucus reducing inflammation, which makes more room in the airways for you to breathe. The non-inhaled particles landing on the skin help to balance pH and induce reparative and regenerative processes in the skin, stimulating cell growth and microcirculation. The result is an improvement in your overall mental and emotional health, helping you to relax and de-stress.

    You can see results from minor discomforts in one to eight sessions, while more than
     2 to 3 sessions are recommended on a weekly basis for positive results based on your condition for twelve weeks. Once the condition improves, members can attend fewer sessions per week.

  • Who can benefit from Halotherapy (Dry Salt)?

    Dry Salt therapy is like a toothbrush for your lungs and skin, EVERYONE can benefit. It is a detox for many conditions, including lung conditions, such as allergies, asthma, bronchial infections, sinusitis, and even snoring, as well as common skin conditions such as acne, dry and flaky skin and eczema. Check to see if you have one of the more common illnesses which salt can help relieve on our Symptoms page. If your condition is not listed, that's OK. This is just a list of some of the more common conditions known to do well with Halotherapy, and does not mean we cannot help you too. 

  • What do I wear?

    No special clothing is required. You can come wearing shorts, a tank top, short sleeves, or pants, however, you are comfortable wearing. If you are trying to see benefits from respiratory conditions, clothing choice does not matter. With skin conditions, we recommend exposing more of your skin, especially the affected area. However, clothing is required as it is a group room. The temperature is a steady 70 ⁰ F, so you won't get hot or sweaty. We do provide blankets just in case you are cold. Shoes are not allowed in the salt room. Please wear or bring clean socks.

  • Do we accept walk-ins?

    Yes, we do take walk-ins. We'd love to know you're coming beforehand to ensure we can accommodate you. We'll take you as long as the session is not full (up to 6). Please arrive 10-15 minutes before your desired session time. Sessions start every hour on the hour and last for 45 minutes in the salt room. 

  • What can I take with me in the salt room?

INFRARED SAUNA, COMBO SALT & INFRARED THERAPY

FAQs

  • What is Infrared Sauna

    Infrared light is necessary for all living things to grow and flourish.  Infrared light is a part of the sun’s invisible spectrum of light that has the ability to penetrate the human tissue.  Infrared heat heats the body directly rather than simply the air.  The experience of an infrared treatment is similar to sunbathing, giving you that wonderful natural warmth. Unlike sunbathing, infrared heat therapy is completely healthy and safe.  You can relax in an infrared sauna, and it will never cause your skin to burn. Infrared heat penetrates human tissue and cells producing a host of health benefits.


    Infrared Sauna Therapy is 7x more effective than a traditional sauna and is effective at a low, soothing temperature (It’s so safe that it’s used in hospitals to warm newborn infants). To deliver health benefits like anti-aging, weight loss, and detoxification, saunas need to emit high concentrations of infrared waves—not just heat. For infrared therapy to be successful, heaters must have a high emissivity level for the body to absorb infrared energy...our sauna pods are proven 95-99% efficient at delivering a higher dose of infrared energy into the body, resulting in a therapeutic range for natural healing and prevention.

    Far infrared therapy purifies the body, boosts energy, and shrinks belly fat.  Our far infrared (FIR) panels provide the longest wavelength, reaching deepest into the body and cells, where toxins are stored. During treatment, your body is surrounded by soothing far infrared heat that penetrates the body at the cellular level.  By raising your core body temperature 3 degrees in 30 minutes, FIR stimulates the sweat glands, resulting in a deep, detoxifying sweat that leaves you feeling light and revitalized.

  • What is Salt & Infrared Combo therapy?

    Salt Therapy, Sauna and Red-light therapy. This service is administered in the HaloIR booth. The halo generator delivers salt therapy with the highest efficacy by creating the smallest-sized salt particles to improve respiratory and skin health.


    The HaloIR saunas use infrared panels instead of conventional heat to penetrate human tissue easily, heating up your body before heating up the air.

    In a far infrared sauna, about 20% of the heat goes to heating the air and the other 80% heats your body. This radiant heat penetrates the skin more deeply than traditional saunas.


    Our Red Light has powerful medical-grade LEDs to deliver healing power to targeted body areas. Red and near-infrared wavelengths stimulate the mitochondria, turning them into usable energy. Red light is absorbed by the skin, boosting collagen production & aiding skin conditions. Near Infrared penetrates deeper, aiding muscle recovery, cellular renewal, and joint pain.


    You will find relief from:

    Asthma

    Allergies

    Chronic ear/nose/throat illness

    Bronchitis and sinusitis

    Sinus Inflammation

    Snoring

  • Why is a Core Temperature Study so important?

    It shows clinically how effective an infrared sauna will be at therapeutic healing.  You want your core temperature to raise 3 degrees in 30 minutes, which is like creating a false fever to regenerate old cells into new cells.  This is the secret to providing true therapeutic health benefits from an infrared sauna.  If a core temperature study cannot be produced, then that is a red flag, or if the study doesn't show a rise of 3 degrees in 30 minutes, then the therapeutic health benefits could be lacking.  (Most saunas require you to sit in a cabin for 40-60 minutes because the sauna doesn't increase your core temperature to a therapeutic range for healing, detoxing, and sweating)



  • What should I wear?

    Please wear comfortable clothing to wear in the Sauna. If you are doing a combo session with Salt therapy and have skin issues, you may want to wear less clothing, i.e. a bathing suit that exposes more skin. Wraps and towels are provided, but feel free to bring your own.  

  • Do You Accept Walk-ins?

    Yes, we do take walk-ins. However, we'd love to know that you're coming beforehand, to ensure we can accommodate you. We'll take you as long as a Sauna is available. 

  • Can more than 1 person book the sauna?

    The Sauna accommodates up to 2 people for Halo, infrared and Red Light therapy. The first client pays the session price and their guest an additional $25. Maximum, only a party of 2 is allowed for the salt sauna suite experience.  

  • Do you clean the Saunas?

    The good news is that infrared heat kills 99% of bacteria in a naturally sterile environment. But at ºdegree Wellness, we go a step further and clean each suite in between sessions with non-toxic cleaners.

  • What are the benefits of oxygen therapy?

    Oxygen is the “fuel” our body uses at the cellular level to accomplish vital metabolic processes. What science has discovered is that – subject to proper use and supervision – more oxygen is better.SDO Wellness Oasis is excited to offer our Members and clients the ability to improve their health and well-being through our Oxygen Lounge in an easy, affordable and accessible environment.


    We offer 10 or 20-minute individual Oxygen Therapy sessions to both our Members and customers.

Members can also “stack” Oxygen Therapy with our other services, like Foot Detox sessions, Dry Salt, Infrared and Red Light therapies.


    Breathing Never Sounded So Good.

    Take it from us, Oxygen Therapy should be an essential component in your Self-Care and Wellness ritual. Below are just some of the benefits:


    Anti-Aging: scientific studies show that oxygen therapy can reduce the signs of aging at the cellular level by 25 years by lengthening telomeres and reducing senescent “zombie” cells.

    Pain Management: oxygen therapy has been clinically shown to improve both chronic pain and acute conditions (including headaches!) by reducing inflammation and accelerating healing in soft tissue and muscle injuries.


    Fitness Recovery: athletes from Michael Phelps to Lebron James use oxygen therapy to enhance post-workout recovery and reduce the risk of injury.


    Brain Health: increased cerebral blood flow improves cognition. Recent studies have shown this is especially true for aging adults who showed significant improvement in attention, information processing speed and executive functions.

  • Is Oxgen Theraphy Safe?

    According to the American Lung Association, “there is no evidence that oxygen at the low flow levels used in the bars can be dangerous to a normal person’s health.” If you are worried about health risks, please consult a physician.

  • Is there anyone that should not sweat?

    Saunas are not advisable for women who are pregnant, anyone with a pacemaker or those who have an inability to sweat.

  • What is Ionic Foot Detox Bath?


    The ionic detoxification foot soak is a gentle natural method that pulls unwanted toxins out of the body through a bioenergetic ionic exchange. It is excellent for those who need to detoxify the body to restore or to maintain an overall state of well-being and energy. The device energizes the water with negative and positive ions through a process called electrolysis. The toxins circulating through the bloodstream in the region of the feet are also charged particles. They will be naturally drawn to the oppositely charged ions in the water. They will be pulled from the bloodstream and will be eliminated from the body by osmosis and diffusion at the soles of the feet. In the end, these toxins are neutralized in the water of the foot bath.

  • What should I expect during the Foot Detox session?

    The treatment will last 30 minutes, and it involves placing your feet into a basin filled with warm salted water. During this time, you just sit back and relax, in our massage chairs with a warm neck wrap while your body is being rejuvenated. Some people experience mild tingling sensations in their feet, but most do not experience any sensation except for gentle relaxation.

  • Are There Any Side Effects To The Treatment?

    The treatment will last 30 minutes, and it involves placing your feet into a bowl filled with warm salted water.

RED LIGHT

FAQs

  • How Does Red Light Therapy Work

    The short answer is that our cells get an energy boosts when they absorb natural light, especially red wavelengths at 660 nm and near infrared wavelengths at 850 nm. A large base of clinical research has found that this leads to enhanced ATP energy production, increased collagen production, reduced oxidative stress, faster muscle recovery, and a lot more natural health benefits.

  • How long is a RLT session?

    Each session is 30 minutes.

  • How many sessions are needed

    That depends on your goals and current condition. In general, acute injuries (sprains, abrasions, etc.) show rapid improvement and are often resolved in 2-4 treatments. Long-term and chronic conditions may need up to 10 treatments to show significant benefits. Most clients do 3 times per week until their goals are met, then reduce to 1-2 times per week for maintenance. For athletes with a rigorous workload, 3-5 times per week is recommended for optimal recovery.

  • Are there any effects?

    No, treatment is non-toxic, non-invasive, and has no side effects. It is safe and effective for most people.

  • Are there any Contradictions?

    Treatment is NOT APPROPRIATE FOR THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: pregnancy, epilepsy, active cancer lesions, and anyone taking photosensitive medications.

  • What to wear?

    Most users prefer to experience the session in the nude. Delivering natural light to more surface area of your body leads to better light therapy outcomes, but full nudity is not required for effective use. Lighter garments (underwear, bras, and socks) may be worn without hampering a treatment, though the covered areas not exposed directly to the light won’t receive any benefits.

  • Should I wear eye protection?

    No. The wavelength of red and near-infrared light is actually healthy for your eyes. You may want to close them and take a nap, though.

  • What should I do before my session?

    Remove all jewelry that could refract light. Remove as much makeup as possible, and limit the use of lotions, especially ones with light-blocking agents. Hydration is vital to the success of the treatments, so please drink water throughout the day!

  • What should I feel? Is it hot?

    The lights themselves do not become warm; however, your circulation increases throughout the treatment, so you may experience a feeling of warmth. A quick energy boost or feeling of euphoria is also possible.

  • What should I do after each session?

    Hydrate! Water is essential for cellular processes, and your cells will be hard at work after PBM. Make sure to drink extra water and eat well so your cells have all the fuel they need to heal.

  • How will I know if it's working? What should I look for?

    Pain levels for acute or chronic conditions, improvements in color or texture of scars, improvements in skin texture and tone, quality of sleep, energy levels, recovery time post workout, and energy levels throughout the day are all good markers to track success.
