Salt Room Support for Sinus Infections
Around 37 million Americans are expected to have sinus infections by this year. Regular medications are only temporary relief, and if it gets worse, surgery might be needed. Salt therapy at The Salt Room, South Tampa is an alternative treatment that helps relieve sinus infections without use of drugs.
Salt Therapy Will Ease Your Infection
The salt particles in the treatment reach deep into the sinuses and draw out fluid to accelerate mucus clearance. This causes the airway passages in the nose and the tubes of the sinuses to open up, allowing for easier drainage. Salt therapy also kills bacteria to help reduce infection. Your dependence on prescription drugs will diminish and it might also bolster up your immune system. A full treatment of 5-15 sessions could provide relief for up to a year.
Our membership allows patients one session of salt therapy per week for only $90 per month.
