Speleotherapy - Personal Salt-Air Inhaler
Salt Therapy has also been known and accept in Eastern an Central Europe for generations as the non-drug treatment and it has been known as Halotherapy (Halo = Salt) and Speleotherapy (Speleo = Cave). It uses the benefit of salt properties to treat respiratory illnesses. Womer (1999) reveals in his study of sat in the history medicine that salt therapy to treat respiratory illness is not new concept--Inhaling the salt airsteam from heating salt solution was recommended treatment by Hippocrates.At the Ukrainian Allergological Hospital (UAH), they report that the unique microclimate of the salt mines can improve patients with various forms of bronchial asthma and other types of respiratory diseases. In the course of more than 30 years about 60 000 patients are reported to have been cured. Annually more than 2000 adults and 1000 children attend the clinic. Chervinskaya and Zilber (1995) shows an evidence on halotherapy for respiratory diseases using areosal salt chamber. They show an evidence of improvement in clinical state in most patients in the group. Today speleotherapy is more and more recognized as a “highly effective medication-free treatment method. At the World Paediatric Congress in Jerusalem in July 1997, speleotherapy was presented as a curative method for chronic and allergic diseases of respiratory organs.
Speleotherapy or underground climatotherapy is an alternative treatment for asthma used mostly in Eastern Europe. Curing asthma involves spending 2-3 hours a day underground in subterranean caves or salt mines over a 2-3 month period. This rather old therapeutic modality without a scientific explanation seems to give some benefit to patients with COAD and asthma." - 0. Karakoca Y, Demir G, Kisacik G et al. Speleotherapy in asthma and allergic diseases. Clin Exp Allergy 1995;25:666-667.

Nasal Irrigation is a procedure that uses a saline solution to cleanse the nasal passages. Physicians have been recommending nasal saline irrigation since ancient times. Nasal irrigation can be used for allergy relief, sinus infection, sinusitis, snoring, post nasal drip and sinus pain.
This annotation was written by Steve Hall, M.D.
The Neti pot has revolutionized my practice. In the United States, sinus problems are the number one reason people see a doctor. That was true with my practice too. But since I've been recommending the Neti pot, I don't think I have one person who is using it and still having chronic sinus problems. The Neti hails from India where certain Hindu sects use it to irrigate their nasal passages in preparation for their meditations. The doctors practicing there rarely saw people with sinus complaints and wondered why. They looked and saw people using the Neti. Some experts on health consider nasal irrigation a basic health-maintenance activity equal to flossing your teeth or loufa-ing your skin. It's really catching on. In fact, even conventional Ear, Nose and Throat specialists are beginning to recommend it. But they say things like, "Snort salt water." How efficient is that? I've heard of people using bicycle water bottles, and Water Pic makes an attachment for nasal irrigation, but these both use pressure and can inflate your sinuses like a water balloon. Neti is the gentlest, safest, most efficient way I've found of delivering a good cleansing dose of saline to the nose.
So, how does it work? A soothing, gentle stream of salt water, the same concentration as tears, flows through your nose, washing away pollens, viruses, mucus and bacteria. It is useful for anyone with nasal congestion, hay fever or chronic sinus infections. I've not seen it straighten a septum, but it helps alleviate problems associated with this condition. We keep one around and use it at the first sign of colds or sore throats. Often it helps nip them in the bud. Many people with allergies use it daily as a preventative. It comes with simple, clear directions, and most people get fairly accustomed to the procedure during their first time. Many of my patients come back and swear by their Netis. They are so happy to be free of their sinus headaches or the need to take course after course of antibiotics. If you're one of those "frequent players" in the health care game, I suggest you give the Neti a try and revolutionize your doctor's practice.
Neti Pot for Nasal Washing Think how good your sinuses feel after a good dip in the ocean. Now you can apply the cleansing and healing aspects of saltwater daily. Created by Red Hot Ceramics, these hand-made nasal wash pots will keeps your sinuses free of bacteria and lower your risk of contracting winter flus and colds. $16.50 More information...

Speleotherapy or underground climatotherapy is an alternative or complementary method of therapy for treating asthma and other respiratory diseases and has been common in Eastern and Central Europe for many, many years.
The therapy involves spending 2-4 hours a day underground, in salt caves or mines, over a two to three month period, but the results are impressive. The salt micro-particles or salt dust, reach the lung alveoli, bronchi, and bronchioles and clear all the airway passages in upper and lower respiratory tract. Due to the fact that the inhaled saline has muco-kinetic, bactericidal, hydrophilic and anti inflammatory properties, it helps to reduce inflammation, causing a widening of the airway passages, kills bacteria and restores the normal transport of mucus, as well as unclogs blockages.
Although not so-well-known in North America, salt therapy is an old and recommended method of therapy in Eastern Europe. There are many fashionable and popular salt sanatoriums scattered throughout the region, deep within the heart of known salt mines, where medical professionals are involved in clinical research, often at the request of the country’s Health Minister.
A past study describes a speleotherapy treatment, with 100 COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) and asthma patients, who spent four hours daily, for six to eight weeks, in treatment. All patients reported improvements, which lasted from six months to seven years (Skulimowski, 1965). Similar studies are published in Pub Med (MEDLINE) from Poland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and Russia.
A more recent clinical study at Pulmonary Clinic, Ambulatory Section, Timisoara, Romania, on with 30 patients (19 Asthma, 11 Chronic Bronchitis), revealed that the use of a speleotherapy device (also called Halotherapy device) for a time period of one year, significantly reduced the sore throat, nasal obstruction, snoring, cough, sputum secretion, associated rhinitis, annual hospitalization and the intake of symptomatic medication. Also demonstrated was significant improvement in sputum elimination, olfactory sense recovery (smell, taste), quality of sleep, morning condition, and overall clinical status.
Another clinical study at Cystic Fibrosis Center, Timisoara, Romania, with eighteen patients suffering from Cystic Fibrosis, using the same inhaler device, showed a significant reduction of sputum secretion and crackles at auscultation and improvement of respiratory functional syndrome, sputum elimination and general clinical state.
In an allergic rhinopathy study, twenty-two poly-allergic patients, suffering from house dust as the main allergen - showed significant reduction of nasal obstruction, sneezing, headache, cough and notable improvement in quality of sleep, serous-mucus rhinorea, sputum consistence and elimination, as well as in their general clinical state.
A clinical study at Otitis Media with sixty-three children sfflicted with ear infection for more than one year, showed marked reduction of moderate and severe clinical symptoms, drug intake, and serous-mucus secretion after tympanotomy with significant improvement in breathing, effort capacity, intellectual capacity, tube tympanic drainage and general clinical state.
Speleotherapy most definitely has proven to be an effective alternative method of therapy as well as a complementary method of therapy. “Alternative” should imply “instead of” western medical procedures, conventional treatments and “complementary” should be “in addition to”, in both cases, with very good results leading to a reduction of antibiotics and corticoids intake and decreasing the rate of annual hospitalization and asthma attacks.

Salt Deficiency: the cause of many serious diseases Both sea salt and rock salt were well known to the ancient Greeks who noted that eating salty food affected basic body functions such as digestion and excretion (urine and stools). This led to salt being used medically. The healing methods of Hippocrates (460 BC) especially made frequent use of salt. Salt-based remedies were thought to have expectorant powers. A mixture of water, salt, and vinegar was employed as an emetic. Drinking a mixture of two-thirds cow's milk and one-third salt-water, in the mornings, on an empty stomach was recommended as a cure for diseases of the spleen. A mixture of salt and honey was applied topically to clean bad ulcers and salt-water was used externally against skin diseases and freckles. Hippocrates also mentions inhalation of steam from salt-water. We know today that the antiinflammatory effects of inhaled salt provide relief from respiratory symptoms (c). Thus, 2000 years ago, Greek medicine had already discovered topical use of salt for skin lesions, drinking salty or mineralized waters for digestive troubles and inhaling salt for respiratory diseases! more
