Consequently, ionisers are seen as a good solution to address the saturation of positive ions in our electrically charged urban environments, offices and homes - and salt lamps are the best natural ionisers available. It's also the cheapest and simplest method of fighting electric smog (as well as cigarette smoke). For example, when turned on, the salt lamp will bind negative ions with excess positive ions. This action will in turn cause the heated salt lamp to feel damp to the touch, providing concrete evidence that the salt lamp is effective. In this way, the salt lamp increases its negative ion field to counteract the positively charged atmosphere of a room which causes the surface of the salt lamp to dampen. This dampness can be left to dry naturally or can be easily cleaned with a clean cloth.
This ionisation process or principle is what makes natural environments like beaches, the air after a rainstorm or near a waterfall so healing and beneficial. As these environments abound with healing negative ions helpful to our bodies. Essentially, the reason for the healing effects of negative ions is due their ability to kill bacteria, purify the air, reduce radiation, increase well-being and soothe the mind, body and soul. Little wonder then that these beautiful gifts of nature are known as “vitamins of the air”, for they improve our well-being and health in many ways. For example, the salt lamp provides reputed health benefits such as:
- Enhancing overall immunity
- Relieving a common cold
- Help in preventing or help heal acute diseases/ illnesses (including cancer)
- Help in healing skin problems
- Relieving mental distress or health disorders
- Healing respiratory illness
- Improving air quality
- Improving sleep
- Relieving migraines and headaches
- Improving the general atmosphere/ air quality of a room
- Nullifying the electric smog/ electromagnetic field's negative effects caused by electrical devices such as the television, vacuum cleaner or computer monitor etc (however, remember not to place the salt lamp on top of a TV or computer, just beside it)
- Bioenergotherapists and homeopaths have recommended salt lamps to support the treatment of allergies, respiratory, blood systems and rheumatism
- Colour therapy: salt lamps are used in chromotherapy as their soothing light helps ease nervousness, neurosis and insomnia.
Overall, the salt lamp negates the detrimental effects of common household electronics that emit electromagnetic fields at approximately 100-160Hz, (in contrast, our brain waves produce only 8Hz (according to the Schuman resonance frequency). Consequently, our bodies are exposed up to 20 times higher frequency patterns than naturally produced. The result of repeated or extensive exposure to electric smog has reportedly lead to a myriad of health complaints such as: insomnia, nervousness and lack of concentration. Furthermore, exposure to household and environmental electric smog can cause an accumulation of free radicals in the body which can lead to cancer. Clearly, then, the salt lamp is a modern day necessity in both homes and offices.
How the salt lamp works
The effect of air ionisation by salt originates from its physical and chemical properties. That meaning, when lit-up by a low wattage light bulb, the ionisation effect is enhanced as the salt crystal heats and releases more health fortifying negative ions into the immediate surroundings. The heated salt lamp attracts water molecules from the air, thus forming a NaCl and H20 solution - whereby sodium is a positive ion and chloride a negative ion, (i.e. hydrogen has a two part negative charge and oxygen is a positively charged ion). The consequent reaction of the two positive ions and three negative ions is that they cancel each other leaving one lone negative ion. This negative ion then seeks out the first positive ion (like a dust particle or bacteria and "zaps" it). In this ionisation or positive ion reduction process, the salt lamp helps to naturally improve the quality of our urban environment and homes, our well-being and help prevent/ heal many diseases.
Himalayan crystal mineral salt lamp
Created millions of years ago, Himalayan crystal mineral salt beds are the product of ancient ocean beds and its resulting salt deposits being raised high into the mountains of the Himalayas through geological tectonic forces. These ancient ocean beds still remain deep inside the Himalayan mountains. They're also one of the purist salts on earth. In contrast, the current oceans that cover over 70% of the earth’s surface have been contaminated and polluted by human industries with heavy metals like mercury, lead, cadmium and arsenic. In contrast, Himalayan Crystal Mineral Salt Lamps offer a pure ancient sea salt product, originated from pristine oceans millions of years old, free from any man made contaminants.
Places to use the Himalayan crystal mineral salt lamp:
-
Near your television, radio or computer monitor.
-
During massage and meditation.
-
Restaurants, cafes or other smokey places.
-
Near your pet's sleeping quarters (some cats even lick the salt lamp (!) as it's beneficial to their health too).
-
In the children’s bedroom.
-
Confined environments where you desire the air quality to be improved or preserved such as the office or study.
-
In the home, office or therapy practice to help create a calm and relaxing environment.
-
As a centerpiece to enjoy the natural beauty of Himalayan Crystal Mineral Salt Lamps.
A selection of Himalayan Crystal Mineral Salt Lamps will be launched soon at Crystal Wellsprings...
