Why Himalayan Salt?Nourish your body with Saltability Himalayan salt.The Primal Sea is a place where scientists and scholars believe all life originated. From the Primal Sea came a pure, crystal-like salt rich in 84 naturally occurring minerals and elements called Himalayan salt. This blend of minerals that includes iron, magnesium, calcium and potassium detoxifies the skin and nourishes the soft tissue as the heat generated from warming the stones opens up the capillaries and allows the body to absorb these healing elements.

Are they different than Basalt stones?Yes it is in that you are actually receiving the mineral benefits from the earth with the salt stones. Is it necessarily better? That depends on the person and their preference. The salt stones do not weigh as much as some of the basalt so they may not feel as deep. However, the salt stones retain heat longer so the relaxing effects may be more profound for people who love longer heat. The basalt are usually left in place during a treatment a bit longer because the heat dissipates more quickly. But this does not mean that they don't have benefits all their own. They embody the gentle strength of water as it has shaped them over thousands of years and have been used ceremonially by humans to aid the healing process for thousands of years.
