Currently, 5.2 million people suffer from asthma in the UK alone. This works out to be one 1 in every 5 households. Asthma has massively increased as a growing health concern over the last half a century with the UK having one of the more prevaling rates in the world.

Asthma is a condition that affects the airways, causing them to tighten and become inflamed. This is often accompanied by the presence of sticky mucus. These conditions render breathing difficult, causing sufferers to experience a feeling of suffocation.

It has long been believed that asthma and allergies are closely related and now a recent study has suggested that more than 50 per cent of asthma cases may be attributable to allergies and that the environment plays a major role in the development of asthma.

Asthma among children is one of the most common diseases
With this in mind it is important to recognize that by identifing and removing contact with these allergens, the chance of an asthma attack is significantly lowered or even removed. It has been realized that the ultimate step in reducing life long problems for children, including asthma and eczema, is very really prevention from contact with known triggering allegens. An additional option is to use breathing exercises and respiratory therapies that will improve and maintain the wellbeing of the respiratory system.

One interesting traditional therapy now becoming widely available is salt therapy. This technique, which involves the inhalation of saltyair, was recently referenced by Dr. Chris Steele on ITV’s This Morning. Dr. Chris Steele, Manchester GP and ITV’s This Morning’s resident Doctor, is a huge fan of the Salitair and discussed the benefits of using the product live on air.

For centuries, salts have been used as folk remedies by many different cultures in regions around the World. Today people suffering from respiratory disorders travel to curative mines such as Wieliczka in Poland, Hallein in Austria or Praid in Romania for the treatment known as speleotherapy.

Of course, it would really be impractical to head down to a salt mine everytime you felt a little largargic or weezy. That’s why salt inhalers were invented. The salitair replicates the salty microclimate of the mines to cleanse the resipratory system and help sufferers breathe more easily. Salitair has also been effective for sufferers of hayfever, COPD, bronchitis and rhinitis.

Thousands of people have now replaced their chemical inhaler with a salitair. By simply using the a inhaler for a few minutes a day, you can gain all the benefits of being in a dedicated salt mine, without even needing to leave your home! The Salitair is completely safe to use, with no side effects. Some people are concerned about the potential of an increased amount of salt introduced to the body, however, because the salt in not digested, and only minute amounts of salt vapour enter the lungs, the Salitair will not increase blood pressure and is completely safe to use.
