How many times do you recommend visiting?
As a preventive measure, in order to strengthen immune system, we recommend attending a course of 10 - 20 sessions twice a year. After an illness, it may be enough to visit 5 times to remove the remnants. However, to restore the body after a course of antibiotics or a serious illness, a course of 10 - 20 sessions is required.
How often does it be needed to visit?
If you want to eliminate the residual phenomena after the disease, then it is best to visit daily or every other day, i.e. at least 3 - 4 times a week. Try to visit at least every third day. If you want to strengthen immune system preventively, then it is enough to visit 2-3 times a week. If you just want to rest and relax and reduce anxiety or insomnia then you can attend one session from time to time (when needed).
How to prepare for the session and how to dress during the session when there is a skin allergy?
Dress comfortably. It is best to wear clothes made of natural fabrics. Wear socks or slippers. If you have a skin allergy, wear a short-sleeved shirt, shorts or tights - leave as much as possible allergy affected skin exposed.
Can I go outside immediately after the session?
After the session in the cold season, it is better not to do active outdoor activities (i.e. active training, running, cycling) for at least an hour, because the bronchi expand and you can "breathe" the cold air. If you have to be outside for a long time after the session, it is recommended to breathe through your nose, and for children, the mouth can be covered with a scarf.
Is it okay to drink and eat immediately after the session?
Drink water before the session. After the session, it is better not to eat or drink for at least 20 minutes so that the mucous membranes absorb the salt. However, after 20 minutes and in general during the course of visiting the salt room, drink more liquid than usual (water, unsweetened tea, etc.)
When is it better to visit the salt room - when you are sick, after an illness or when you are healthy and want to strengthen your immune system?

You can make your condition worse and infect others.Halotherapy procedures are intended to eliminate residual effects after the disease.It is useful to visit the salt room both after an illness and as a preventive measure when you are healthy.

Is it safe visiting during pregnancy?
If the pregnancy is normal, the blood pressure has not increased, then you can visit. In any case, we recommend you to consult your doctor.
From what age can children attend?
Salt concentration in the air is safe even for the smallest babies. However, we recommend consulting a doctor regarding halotherapy treatments for babies under one year of age. Salt liquefies the secretion, so for babies who are not able to remove the secretion by themselves, it is necessary to ensure the removal of the secretion (have an aspirator).
