Helping spas and wellness centers envision new ways of doing business in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, Himalayan Source announces a new, private halotherapy experience for clients that minimizes human contact while delivering multiple therapy modalities — turning treatment rooms into salt therapy rooms that maximize client wellness and business revenues. Himalayan Source’s new concept will be piloted by Hand & Stone Massage and Facial Spa in Delray Beach and is expected to launch June 1, 2020.

Designed for use by one person at a time, Himalayan Source’s private halotherapy experience  combines far infrared heat therapy with the benefits of Himalayan salt to create a luxury healing experience with a particular focus on supporting respiratory health with minimal human contact. Designed to be added to any treatment room, the private halotherapy experience may be offered as a standalone treatment with no therapist commission needed or as an add-on/upgrade in conjunction with a facial or massage.

“We designed this private halotherapy experience to help clients feel comfortable returning to spas,” said Ann Brown, co-founder of Himalayan Source. “During this time of high anxiety because of COVID-19, it is crucial that we support guest health and wellness in our community. This grounding, healing salt therapy experience allows spas to offer wellness in an environment that minimizes risk for clients.”

During the private halotherapy experience, a client or member benefits from true halotherapy while enjoying the soothing view of an aesthetically pleasing, glowing Himalayan salt wall. Breathing in pharmaceutical grade particles of salt from a halogenerator, he or she relaxes on a massage table that provides far infrared heat therapy combined with gemstones, pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF) and LED light therapy. Guided meditation to restore body, mind and spirit rounds out the experience to provide total rejuvenation and recentering.

“Safety has always been a top priority at Hand & Stone. As we prepare to reopen and our guests return for some much needed relaxation, we are thrilled to offer them extra peace of mind with this new halotherapy service offered by Himalayan Source,” said Katherine Chenier, owner of the Delray Beach Hand & Stone franchise that is piloting the new concept.

Here's what we — and you — can do

When Tori and Leon Jones discovered salt therapy a few years ago at a salt cave in Tennessee, they knew they needed to bring that experience back home to Little Rock, Arkansas.  

Eden Salt Studio, their family-owned venture, combines the stress-reducing experience of yoga with the healing powers of salt therapy. Using a Himalayan salt wall from Himalayan Source, as well as offering dry salt therapy, Eden Salt Studio is able to provide a rejuvenating, high-class experience for every guest in a beautiful, gold glowing setting.  
“Our customers love the salt wall! So many people have said that they want one for their homes. They are intrigued that it's actual salt,” Owner and Yoga Instructor Tori Jones said. “Today in a salt session, I couldn't begin because one woman wanted to take about 15 pictures … She couldn't believe how beautiful it was.”  

According to the Jones’, they originally sought out Himalayan Source for their salt wall concepts based on a referral, but it was ultimately the Himalayan Source team and prices that sealed the deal. “After we did our due diligence, we found Himalayan Source to have great advisors and competitive prices,” Co-owner and COO Leon Jones said. “They were also very easy to work with.”  

Now, Eden Salt Studio boasts three separate salt walls, which their contractors were able to install in only three days. “The installation process was smooth and the instructions were easy to follow,” Leon said. “Our contractor worked with Hart and was able to do the installation work with ease.”  

Today, the Jones’ are advocates for Himalayan Source’s salt walls and encourage their industry peers to make the investment. “All of our clients enjoy gazing at the salt wall, whether in yoga or in a salt session, and they enjoy the calming atmosphere and positive energy associated with the salt walls,” Leon said. “Having a salt wall is necessary to setting the right tone for your studio. I would advise each owner to have a salt wall in their salt room and if it’s in their budget, to include one in the reception area.”  

Himalayan Source is proud to be a part of the exceptional salt experience at Eden Salt Studio. To learn more about Himalayan Source’s salt wall concepts, click here, or contact info@himalayansource.com.  ​

“As wellness providers, I know my spa industry peers are always looking for ways to enhance guest experience and health, as well as improve as providers year after year,” Himalayan Source co-founder Ann Brown said. “I want to make it easy for them to end the year on a strong note and begin 2020 new and improved.” 
 
Himalayan salt saunas and walls are made from 100% pure Himalayan crystal salt, containing 84 naturally occurring minerals and salts that are considered the purest and most beneficial salt ever discovered on earth. When heated, Himalayan salt serves as a natural ionizer, helping reduce problems associated with headaches and migraines, stress, insomnia, respiratory problems, allergies and arthritis.
 
The ISR 1000 halo-generator, which produces a nearly invisible, dry salt aerosol in mere minutes, may be included in your salt wall or concept purchase — applied to reach the $5,000 total for your $1,000 off special. When inhaled, it helps eliminate allergy symptoms, reduce asthma inflammation and kill rhinoviruses.

Congratulations to our new partner and friend, Tranquil Lily, for their grand opening in Solon, Ohio on September 7!

We are proud to have partnered with them to create a truly one-of-a-kind experience in the Tranquil Lily Salt Grotto, where guests are immersed in a relaxing, healing atmosphere of salt and sand. 

​Relaxing in comfortable lounge chairs, guests enjoy warm, golden sand at their feet and the gentle, healing glow of illuminated and warm Himalayan Source Himalayan salt around them. The warm salt bricks create a clean, pure, bacteria-free environment that detoxifies, replenishes and provides a grounding effect for the body by giving off negative ions that help relieve anxiety, reduce stress, improve sleep, and more. 

With the remarkable vision of their team, who chose a unique trim design that starts and stops the salt walls both above and at face-level to the lounge chairs, their beautiful salt grotto room provides a soothing atmosphere with a gentle, ambient glow in all the right places. 

“Bringing in the numerous benefits of Himalayan salt, spas optimize their underutilized traditional saunas and, with minimal investment, transform an important wellness space into a more impactful healing experience,” said Ann Brown of Himalayan Source. “We designed these panels with a focus on innovation and ease — with installation typically within one hour — so as many spas and spa-goers as possible could benefit.”

As guests breathe in the ion-infused air in a sauna with a Himalayan salt panel, the body is replenished by the 84 naturally occurring minerals found in Himalayan salt but are missing from today’s environment due to pollution and everyday stressful living.

Himalayan Source offers framed Himalayan salt panels in a variety of Himalayan salt stylesand frame finishes. With a standard size of 32” x 64”,panels may be ordered in custom sizes, withsalt bricks or different size granular salt, and require no special tools or skills to install. The panels feature long-lasting LED lighting for a beautiful, ambient glow and an aesthetically-pleasing and environmentally-friendly design.

For spas seeking a more comprehensive, custom Himalayan salt installation, Himalayan Source also offers Himalayan salt walls for saunas. Salt walls are typically installed within one-half to one day to minimize downtime for spa-goer usage.
