Country Village Chemists, in Huntington, has completed its latest creation, a salt therapy room. The 
new room has a beautiful, relaxing environment surrounded by the therapeutic effects of Himalayan salts for healing and detoxification. Country Village Chemists takes pride in its cutting-edge, innovative approach to integrative medicine by being one of the first pharmacies to offer halotherapy—a drug-free means to help treat respiratory problems, skin conditions, sleep disorders, and more, as well as improve overall wellness.
Halotherapy is purported to cleanse your entire respiratory system, including the sinuses, nasal cavities, throat and lungs, because you breathe in the microscopic salt particles released into the room by the halogenerator. Halotherapy comes from the Greek word salt and has been used in Europe for thousands of years. Dry salt inhalation therapy dates back to Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, as a treatment for respiratory issues and other ailments caused by everyday pollutants.
“Halotherapy has been shown to remove impurities from your body and will increase your energy and endurance while your immune system gets the boost it needs to fight illness. Sleep, mood, skin conditions and aches and pains improve through the use of dry salt therapy,” says Caryn Burns, of Country Village Chemist. “We are also offering a free consultation with every client’s first visit. During the consultation, we will discuss holistic therapies available, including homeopathic, ayurvedic, herbal products and Himalayan salt products.
Location: 227 E. Main St., Huntington. For more information or to book an appointment in the newly created salt therapy room, call 631-351-8989.
