What is Halotherapy and Are There Potential Benefits?

[Prince]

The origins of halotherapy can be traced back to the medieval era, but with scientific advancements, researchers have recently started studying it much more closely.
Halotherapy is an alternative treatment where one breathes in salty air. Advocates of this method have claimed that it can resolve respiratory issues like bronchitis, allergies, and asthma.
There have been other claims that champion halotherapy as a measure against:

• Easing smoking-related symptoms
• Treating anxiety and depression
• Improving skin issues like eczema and psoriasis

I don’t know about you, but the talk of medieval times, a mystifying type of therapy, and breathing in salty air raises my BS meter. But let’s give it a chance, dive a little deeper into the topic, and see what the research has to say.
