Halothearapy can help by clearing your lungs from accumulated mucus making it easier to breath. As your respiratory tract widens and clears, your coughing subsides. Halotherapy brings relief by reducing the inflammation of your lungs, killing bacteria and dislodging mucus that blocks the bronchioles.

Halotherapy was found to have beneficial effects with health conditions like:

    • Respiratory conditions
    • Allergies
    • Sinus Infections
    • Skin conditions
    • Snoring
    • Ear infections
    • Long acute diseases of the upper airways
    • Chronic diseases of the airways
    • Chronic inflammation
    • Bacterial, fungal and viral infections
    • Immune deficiencies

Who should not do Salt/Halotherapy?
We recommend that you consult with your doctor/physician if you have any concerns before starting halotherapy. People not advised to do Salt/Halotherapy are those with; Infections accompanied by fever, active tuberculosis, bleeding, spitting of blood, alcohol and drug intoxication.

Science and medicine have tried to define the precise roles of salt in the healthy and diseased human organism. Blood, sweat, and tears all contain salt, and both the skin and the eyes are protected from infectious germs by the anti-bacterial effect of salt. When salt is added to a liquid, particles with opposite charges are formed: a positively charged sodium ion and a negatively charged chloride ion. This is the basis of osmosis which regulates fluid pressure within living cells and protects the body against excessive water loss (as in diarrhea or on heavy sweating). Sodium and chloride ions, as well as potassium ions, create a measurable difference in potential across cell membranes. This ensures that the fluid inside living cells remains separate from that outside. Thus, although the human body consists mainly of water, our "inner ocean" does not flow away or evaporate.

Sodium ions create a high pressure of liquid in the kidneys and thus regulate their metabolic function. Water is extracted through the renal drainage system. The body thus loses a minimal amount of essential water. Out of 1500 liters of blood which pass daily through the kidneys, only about 1.5 liters of liquid leave the body as urine. Salt is "fuel" for nerves. Streams of positively and negatively charged ions send impulses to nerve fibres. A muscle cell will only contract if an impulse reaches it. Nerve impulses are partly propelled by co-ordinated changes in charged particles.

Salt Therapy and Sound Healing are both ancient practices that many cultures have utilized for wellness. This event is a combining of these two powerful practices for our Salt + Sound sessions!

Halotherapy, or Salt Therapy, can help by clearing your lungs from accumulated mucus making it easier to breath. As your respiratory tract widens and clears, your coughing subsides. Halotherapy brings relief by reducing the inflammation of your lungs, killing bacteria and dislodging mucus that blocks the bronchioles. The Salt Cave and Spa is a gorgeous space with these healing salt rocks embedded into the structure itself, as well as throughout the space.
 
Sound Healing uses certain instruments that are known to have a particular effect on the mind and body, through their tones and overtones as well as the vibrations in the atmosphere that are producing those sounds. The sound healing experience offers a range of benefits, including calming the mind and body, relieving stress and tension, reduced pain, improved sleep, and more. Greg Burns of Metta Vibrations has been offering Sound Healing experiences for a number of years throughout the mid-Atlantic region.
 
After beginning with a brief guided relaxation, participants will simply be invited to lay back and experience the sounds while breathing the salt air. The harmonic sounds will fill the air for about an hour before concluding the session. A brief time to ground and reflect will be offered before departure.
 
Participants for this session will be provided a zero-gravity chair. Attendees are encouraged to either bring a blanket or perhaps wear a light jacket. Being the cave is underground it maintains a steady cool temperature. The Sound Bath experience can cause some to feel chilly at times during the session. Participants are encouraged to dress comfortably.
 
With any questions that are specific to the sound element feel free to contact Greg directly at metta.vibrations@gmail.com. Or visit his website at www.mettavibrations.com.

ION FOOT DETOX

 

25m $50

 

What to Expect During An Ion Cleanse Foot Detox Session

During a 30 minute treatment session both bare feet are placed in a tub of warm water. The main control unit converts AC electricity to low power DC electricity which flows through a patented electrode called an array that is set in front of the feet in the footbath. Ions are then created when the electricity and the metal combine to split a water molecule from H2O into H+ and OH- ions. These ions travel through the body, neutralize oppositely charged particles such as free radicals, and through powerful osmotic pressure pull those neutralized particles out of the body through whatever skin surface is in contact with the water.

As the particles leave the body, they will come together and accumulate in the water, thus causing the water in the footbath to change colors. Fat and mucous residues found in the water after the footbath reflect the neutralized wastes that have left the body during the treatment session.

**Ion Foot Detox service not available on Saturdays**

WELLNESS CONSULTATIONS

For those in need of detoxification at the cellular level, nutritional guidance and overall emotional and physical balance, performed by our very own doctor of naturopathic medicine, Marius Grecu.

 

During the consultation expect to go over the current lifestyle to determine where changes may be necessary in order to achieve what is best for your body and mind. Guidance may be given not only in the form of dietary changes but also recommendations about nutritional supplements, medicinal plants, hydration, stretching, movement or breathing exercises as well as meditation. The emotional side is as important as the physical and to allow the body to heal itself, emotional blockages need to be addressed as well.

Programs and conditioning that we have accumulated in our lives are often the cause of limitations and stagnation physically and mentally.

The purpose of these changes is to achieve a state of harmony and balance between body, mind and soul.

Please allow apx one hour for the session. This is a customized session and in-depth conversation is necessary to determine where improvements need to happen.

The consultation is offered complementary for all who purchase a starter health package which is designed to give the body all the essentials nutrients necessary for cellular regeneration, optimize digestion for better assimilation and balance the microbiome. Other products may be recommended based on the individual needs.

 

Usui Holy Fire Reiki

Available Tuesdays!

50m $111

Our Reiki Master - Pam Hinson Bragg

A Reiki Master since 2006, Pam specializes in Stress Management and Deep Relaxation treatments to heal the mind, body and soul of her clients. She received her Usai Holy Fire Reiki Certification in 2016 and has worked with clients all over the state of Virginia. Her clients range from toddlers to seniors. As a Light Worker, Pam's clients leave with a sense of renewal, balance, and relaxation.

Reiki: The Japanese lineage of energy work incorporates the channeling of universal energy to promote balancing of the chakras and healing on the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual planes.

What is Holy Fire Reiki?
Holy Fire is the flame of divine love that our spirit and life force is made of, the spark of God that exists in everything. The energy and vibration of the Holy Fire Reiki master symbol comes directly from Source, “where all there is, is love,” the place of pure consciousness, beyond duality, form, and individuation. It is beyond masculine and feminine, it is pure love, which is at the core of all of creation. When we invite the symbols of Holy Fire Reiki, we are directly connected to the source and guidance of pure divine love. Unconditional love.

Holy Fire Reiki Sounds Religious, is it?
Holy Fire is not intended to have a religious meaning. The word holy has its root meaning to be whole and complete and this is how it is used in Holy Fire. In my experience, Holy Fire is the energy of the “Source of All Existence.” Whatever a person calls that source is fine. It can be the original Big Bang, Pure Consciousness, God, Mother/Father God, Source, etc. There is no religion, politics or dogma or required belief system in Holy Fire Reiki. It is a healing method to help us be whole.

How does Holy Fire Reiki Heal?
Holy Fire Reiki will continue to upgrade in people, as they are ready to receive more. The upgrades can be spontaneous and powerful. The Holy Fire energies first ignite the person’s spirit and fill their soul with Holy Love. Holy Love is a vibration of Holy Fire Reiki. It is the pure love that connects the core of all creation with the core of our spirit. The nature of Reiki is to help us remember the love of our divine spirit. Holy Fire is a direct connection between the source of pure love that exists outside of us and the pure love of our spirit.

Deep healing and purification of unknown wounds and origin usually occur. I have found that some of the healing I have received I didn’t know I needed or wanted. They were outside of my conscious awareness. Holy Fire Reiki has been able to rapidly heal the wounds to my soul that were the “seed and roots” of limitations and I had learned to live with.

Then Holy Fire Reiki empowers the soul and brings back the divine essence of a person.
