@tinaesims Before COVID I went to salt room for a couple months...but I agree with @sueinmn it's probably not a good idea until this pandemic is over because your mouth and nose need to be uncovered and I don't know if that's a good idea at this point if there are other people in the same salt room. If you had your own private salt room....now that would work. Whether or not they work, I don't know but I'm sure it can't hurt. Salt seems to heal so much. And I believe there is the true story of the men over who Europe who actually worked in salt mines (I think it was France but I'm not sure) everyday and the ones that had lung disease and/or lung issues seem to resolve their issues from working in there for days on end.

You are right about the salt mine workers - they were in the Salzkammergut region of Germany/Austria. They didn't suffer the lung ills of other miners who worked in the dusty/dark/damp underground. I believe it is a museum now - I remember touring there with our kids in the late '90s
