Healing Effects of Salt Lamps

   Salt lamps have a similar effect to the ioniser. However, salt lamps have many advantages in many aspects and improve the general atmosphere of a room. They are virtually care - free.
If the lamp is next to a television or computer monitor, these devices, through their electromagnetic field, affect us in approximately the 100-160Hz zone. Our brain waves however, produce only 8Hz (Schumann resonance frequency). Therefore, the body is exposed to up to 20 times higher frequency patterns than it is generally used to. Results of this exposure are nervousness, insomnia and lack of concentration. 
In addition, there will be an accumulation of more free radicals in the body, known to be a cause of cancer.

   Salt lamp binds the negative ions with the excess positive ions. When the lamp becomes warm, it absorbs moisture and the crystal will 
be damp on the surface. This builds up the ion field. Through the lamp, the positively charged atmosphere of a room can be neutralized. 
Also, the colours of the salt crystal stones have a healing effect. The therapeutic value of the coloured crystals can reorganize the epidermal layer of our skin. Tests made with kids having Attention Deficit Disorder symptoms have shown that after only one week of exposure to crystal salt lamps, their symptoms subsided. After removing the lamps, the symptoms returned.

 The Healing Effect of Colours on our Body and Mind

Pink – Supports the sense of partnership and love and opens your emotional body.

Red – Strengthens the vital life force and activates the heart and circulation.

Orange – Facilitates a feeling of security and is helpful to our nervous system and our mind and activates the kidneys and bladder.

Yellow – Encourages intellectual comprehension and activates the pancreas, liver and gall bladder.

  – Has a cleansing and detoxifying effect and represents the healing aspect.  

Research results

   It's a well know fact that, through scientific and empirical research, salt lamps exhibit biophysical characteristics, which demonstrate a positive effect on our well-being. From a scientific view there are three natural action principles at play: ionisation, the electromagnetic oscillation and the transparent-crystalline structure developing the light waves.

   Before we discuss the above mentioned characteristics of the salt lamps in detail, we would like to point out that salt is a primal element, like water and air and its natural minerals and trace element have unique biophysical and biochemical characteristics. Salt is to be regarded as neutral, chemically as well as physically, without its own polarity, always balancing and neutralizing. Exactly like our planet earth's makeup, human beings consist of about 70% water; brine water more specifically. This enormous potential on enclosed brine solution transmits the cosmic oscillation (vibration) energy, not only evenly over our planets, but also reaches deep into our most minute cells and nerves. 

It is not only the salt, from chemical view, that the body needs in order to maintain our entire bodily functions. But, more importantly, the salt from biophysical view, will always be able to bring the body back into its natural energy vibration rhythm.

Salt Lamps and Ionisation

   World-wide laboratory tests with the most diverse kinds of measuring methodology furnished the proof that the lit salt lamps deliver ions to our environment. Primarily, the research points to an increased number of negative ions. The emission of ions is primarily caused by the alternating actions of the salt's ability to first absorb water, then evaporate it. To explain this more precisely, the heated salt crystal attracts the water molecules from the ambient air to its surface. The salt goes into a solution state as it mixes with the water molecules. Sodium, as the positively charged ion, and chloride, as a negatively charged ion, become neutral and are emitted back into the environment. The uniqueness of this ion emission interrelation is only possible with the mineral salt, since salt possesses this transformation ability with water due to its electrically neutral atomic structure. 

Scientific investigations of the last decades proved clearly that a balanced ion relationship with a little surplus of negative ions, can have extremely positive affects on our entire physical condition and our health. The heated salt crystal lamps can be referred to, according to research, as natural ion generators. More important is its ability to clean the ambient air. Depending upon size and surface area of the salt crystal used for the lamp, the ambient air surrounding it is measurably cleaned by the transformation cycle of hydrogen and oxygen, as well as sodium and chloride ions. This characteristic is especially helpful for relieving the symptoms associated with asthma and allergies in general. 

The research of the characteristics of pure, or cleaned air through the action of the salt lamps, is based on a medical therapy called Spelaeotherapy, a treatment where the patient enters an underground salt mine and is exposed to the concentrated atmosphere of negative ions.  

Salt Lamps and Electromagnetic Oscillation

   The Earth is surrounded by an electromagnetic belt, and within this belt every form of life comes and goes. Therefore, every form of life on this planet earth depends on the power of this electromagnetic field of vibration, known as the Schumann resonance frequency , which states that the given frequency of this electromagnetic field is at 7.83 Hz (cycles) per second. This value in known to be the resonant frequency of the Earth. The resonant frequency is the most often frequency of measurement applied to mammals and can be measured as the resonant frequency of our brains with an EEG. Also, a salt crystal, in its neutral state, exhibits this exact frequency oscillation value. 

But because of our industrialized and technical way of life, the human organism is being affected, particularly in our homes and offices, to artificial electromagnetic wavelengths with the most diverse frequency values, caused by electronics devices. These frequencies have been proven not only to disturb our human organism, but also to promote illness, since they constantly overlap our natural resonant frequency. As a result of this constant exposure to various frequencies, our own electromagnetic energy field becomes impaired by the frequencies forced upon it, which upsets the natural development of our cells. Because of the atomic structure of the salt, which is already neutral, it is most likely that the artificial frequencies can be harmonized or balanced by the lit salt lamp as it works as a natural amplifier for the resonant frequency of 8-10 cycles per second, which is so necessary for our life. 

With the use of a salt lamp we can adjust and neutralize electromagnetic wavelengths caused by electronic devices in natural way.

Salt Lamps and Light Waves

   When we talk about light we mean, for the most part, the oscillation energies, or electromagnetic wavelengths, which lie in a nanometre range visible to our human eye. From the colour therapy it is well-known that the human organism needs the light waves of the rainbow spectrum (300-700 nanometres) for the health and preservation of the body. Our body's cells are supplied by light with new energy in the form of electromagnetic wavelengths. Thus the atomic structure of each individual cell vibrates in its own given order and can radiate bio photons as the cell's own electromagnetic energy field.

The specific oscillation values of salt lamps depend upon crystalline colour structure in the so-called warm clay/tone range of 600-700 nanometres. For decades, the field of medicine, has been using irradiation with monochromatic light, since these colour vibration areas exert direct influence on our cell producing functions. To what extent a salt lamp can be employed for natural irradiation therapy, is yet to be seen without further research. However, these lamps have been used therapeutically for years; mainly in Europe.
