THE RECOVERY ROOM
Understand what you’re using. Choose what your body needs.
The Recovery Room at Sleeping Waters Wellness brings together halotherapy, infrared sauna, red and near-infrared light therapy, chromotherapy and cold-water immersion in one private space.
Each modality offers something different, and several can be intentionally layered together. Explore how each therapy works, why people use it and what to expect so you understand not just what you’re booking, but why you might choose it.
Halotherapy isn’t only about what you breathe. As dry salt circulates through the HaloSauna, microscopic particles also settle onto exposed skin.
This is one reason dry salt therapy is commonly used in wellness settings by people interested in skin concerns, including eczema and psoriasis. If skin exposure is one of your goals, wearing shorts, a tank top or other clothing that leaves the desired areas exposed allows more salt to reach the skin.
Research specifically examining dry halotherapy for eczema and psoriasis is much more limited than respiratory research, so we don’t present halotherapy as a treatment or cure for either condition. It is best considered a complementary skin-wellness option.

HALOTHERAPY
Halotherapy, often called dry salt therapy, is the controlled exposure to microscopic particles of pharmaceutical-grade sodium chloride. During a session, a halogenerator grinds dry salt into very small particles and disperses them into the air. As you breathe normally, airborne salt particles enter the respiratory tract while other particles settle onto exposed skin.
The important distinction is that modern halotherapy uses an active dry salt aerosol. It isn’t simply about sitting in a room surrounded by salt. The halogenerator creates and continuously disperses the microscopic salt particles used during your session.
The halogenerator is what creates the active halotherapy environment. Pharmaceutical-grade dry salt is placed inside the machine, where it is mechanically ground into microscopic particles and dispersed into the HaloSauna at a controlled rate.
This creates a dry airborne salt aerosol that can be inhaled while also settling onto exposed skin. There is no special breathing technique required—you simply relax and breathe normally while the halogenerator runs.
Sleeping Waters uses the integrated halogenerator in the HaloSauna PRO, allowing dry salt therapy to be experienced on its own or alongside other modalities.
Particle size helps determine where airborne particles can travel within the respiratory system. Halotherapy uses micronized salt because particles must be small enough to remain suspended in the air and be inhaled rather than simply falling onto nearby surfaces.
Halotherapy research has commonly studied micronized sodium chloride aerosols in approximately the 2–5 micron range. Particles within this respirable range can travel beyond the nose and mouth into portions of the respiratory tract.
This is why a halogenerator matters. A salt wall, salt lamp or bowl of salt does not mechanically micronize salt and continuously disperse a controlled respirable aerosol into the air.
Your respiratory system naturally produces mucus to trap particles and irritants, while tiny hair-like structures called cilia help move those secretions out of the airways. This process is known as mucociliary clearance.
One area studied in dry salt therapy is how inhaled salt aerosol may affect airway secretions, mucus clearance and respiratory symptoms. Some studies and reviews have reported improvements in respiratory symptoms and certain measures of lung function or quality of life, although the research is still limited and study methods vary.
This also helps explain why some people notice throat clearing, coughing or increased nasal drainage during or after halotherapy. Rather than calling this “detox,” it is more accurate to think about the respiratory system’s normal mucus and clearance processes.
Halotherapy is a complementary wellness therapy and does not replace prescribed respiratory medications or medical care.
Your nose, sinuses and airways are constantly filtering the air you breathe and dealing with pollen, dust and other environmental particles.
During halotherapy, micronized dry salt is breathed through the nose and mouth, exposing the upper respiratory tract to the salt aerosol. People commonly incorporate halotherapy into their wellness routines during allergy season or periods of increased environmental irritation, particularly when congestion and mucus are concerns.
Halotherapy does not eliminate an allergy or replace allergy or asthma treatment. Instead, it can be used as a complementary respiratory-wellness practice alongside your usual care.
Halotherapy isn’t only about what you breathe. As dry salt circulates through the HaloSauna, microscopic particles also settle onto exposed skin.

If skin exposure is one of your goals, wearing shorts, a tank top or other clothing that leaves the desired areas exposed allows more salt to reach the skin.

Training places demands on more than muscles. Athletes also rely heavily on their respiratory systems while balancing training, recovery and rest.
Halotherapy provides a passive respiratory-wellness experience—there is no exercise involved. You simply relax and breathe normally while the halogenerator disperses dry salt aerosol into the HaloSauna.
At Sleeping Waters, athletes can also layer halotherapy with infrared heat and red + near-infrared light, allowing respiratory-focused time to happen during a broader recovery session without adding another physical demand to the body.
Halotherapy is simple and completely passive. Get comfortable inside the HaloSauna and breathe normally while the halogenerator disperses microscopic dry salt particles into the air.
You may notice a slightly salty taste, fine salt on your skin or clothing, mild throat clearing, coughing or increased nasal drainage. You may also notice very little during the session itself. You do not need to feel something dramatic for the salt aerosol to be present.
Halotherapy is dry. It is not steam, a saline nebulizer or a saltwater mist.
At Sleeping Waters, halotherapy can be experienced without heat or combined with infrared sauna and/or red + near-infrared light depending on the session you choose.
While the benefits of Halotherapy can start to be noticed after just a single session, consistent and regular visits are recommended for long-term effects. Generally, for those new to salt therapy, starting with two to three sessions a week for a period of four to six weeks is ideal.
After this initial phase, many find that reducing the frequency to once a week is sufficient to maintain the benefits and keep symptoms at bay. However, it's important to note that individual responses to Halotherapy can vary and these guidelines should be adapted based on personal experience.
Children can experience dry salt therapy too, and halotherapy has been studied in pediatric populations.
One randomized pilot study involving children ages 5–13 with mild asthma compared sessions in a salt-room environment with an active halogenerator to the same environment without active salt generation. Researchers reported improvement in bronchial hyper-responsiveness and some quality-of-life measures in the active group, while measures including spirometry did not significantly improve. The researchers called for larger and longer studies.
That’s important context: pediatric halotherapy has been researched, but it should not be presented as a replacement for asthma, allergy or other medical treatment.
Children using the Recovery Room must follow Sleeping Waters’ age and supervision requirements.
