Himalayan salt is the purest salt on Earth, packed with over 84 trace minerals and containing no pollutants, toxins or chemicals.

While you might recognise this trendy pink salt from supermarket shelves, there are actually several different ways it can be incorporated into a holistic health and wellness routine.

From salt soaks to healthy cooking, keep reading for our top 5 ways to enjoy the benefits of Himalayan salt!

Detox your body with a natural bath soak

Himalayan pink salt is the perfect addition to a relaxing bath soak, known for its mineral-rich and detoxifying properties. By soaking in this natural pink salt, your body can absorb over 84+ essential minerals including calcium, iron, magnesium & zinc.

Himalayan salt also helps to pull toxins from the body through reverse osmosis, leaving you feeling energised, recharged and refreshed. 

Cook healthy meals with a Himalayan salt cooking slab

Many of us have made the switch to Himalayan pink salt for seasoning. But did you know you can use Himalayan salt slabs to cook your food, too? These natural salt slabs have a unique crystalline structure, allowing your food to be cooked evenly while also adding a delicious natural flavour to your meals. 

Purify the air with a natural salt lamp

Himalayan salt lamps don’t just provide a beautiful, soothing amber glow - they also have a host of health and wellness benefits. Salt lamps have been known to assist with everything from purifying the air to boosting your mood and energy levels.

This is due to their hygroscopic properties, as well as their ability to generate negative ions. Salt lamps are also renowned for being perfect night lights, and can even help to reduce bedwetting.  

Improve respiratory health with a Himalayan salt inhaler

Salt inhalation therapy has been used for centuries to improve respiratory health and boost lung capacity. If you suffer from asthma, congestion and seasonal allergies, or spend time in polluted environments, a Himalayan salt pipe can help to relieve these symptoms. For best results, use for just 15 minutes each day.

Exfoliate with a nourishing salt scrub

The fine, delicate grains of Himalayan salt make it ideal for a natural exfoliant! Create your very own salt scrub by mixing Himalayan salt with olive oil. You can also add a few drops of essential oils like lavender, geranium or grapefruit. Massage gently into the body 2-3 times a week during your shower for nourished and silky soft skin.
