Welcome to Our Himalayan Salt Crystal Products Health Benefits Page

Our Unique Himalayan salt crystal lamp: Salt Crystal Lamps, Candle holders and Salt Crystals have become a very important issue in Central Europe within the last five years. As a lamp, salt crystal not only creates an especially radiant light but also has a very positive and profound effect on our personal wellbeing. As a result, Himalayan salt crystal lamps are recommended by numerous Feng Shui Experts as well as by renowned architects for improving our working and living environments.

Salt Crystal Lamps are made from crystals of Himalayan natural salt crystal, which has lain below ground for around 260 million years. It is brought to the surface from depths ranging from 700-1100 meters by traditional mining methods which maintain the benefits of natural rock salt and which protect it from possible contamination .
Once mined, the crystals are fashioned entirely by hand, not in a factory but in small village workshops where the highly-skilled craftsman use their age-old family skills to produce work of outstanding natural beauty. Because all of the work is carried out by hand, and because the crystals from which the lamps are made are themselves variable, each lamp is unique in design, colour and weight. The natural substances of rock salt crystal determine the wonderful look of the crystal. For example, iron imparts a red tone and manganese contributes yellow and orange.

Most people are aware of the health benefits of negative ions and know that they are essential for our health and well being.
The fresh, invigorating air after a thunderstorm, by the seaside or high on a mountain top, is caused by the high concentration of negative ions in the air.
And the feelings of lethargy that most of us feel in highly polluted areas, air conditioned offices etc., are usually caused by a high proportion of positive ions.Our wellbeing and our efficiency are highly dependent on the quality of the air we breathe.The quality of the air depends on the kind of electrical charge (positively, negatively charged or neutral particles) and on the concentration of the ions. Our Salt Crystal Lamps improve the quality of the air by producing negative ions.

The Health Benefits of Salt Crystal Lamps: The air we breath consists of ions (atoms or groups of atoms) that carry either a positive or a negative electrical charge. Computers, TV sets, air conditioners, tobacco smoke and many other by-products of modern living produce positively ionsed air, which is detrimental to our health. Negatively ionsed air is generated by environments such as mountains, the seaside and waterfalls, and by means such as thunderstorms, gentle heat and Salt Crystal Lamps.
Salt Crystal Lamps produce both gentle heat and negatively-charged ions. They make it easy for you to bring the benefits of famous health spas into your own home!

The most common benefits are reductions in rheumatism, allergies, respiratory ailments, sleeplessness, migraine, high blood pressure, physical and psychological disorders, mild depression etc. In addition to the proven benefits of negative ionisation, many people also experience a reduction in stress due to the gentle, soothing colours - Red for revitalisation, Orange for revival, Yellow for positive thinking, White for concentration and Apricot for the relief of emotional disorders.

Size is important: The quantity of negative ions emitted from our lamps is directly related to the weight of the lamp, so it is important to choose a lamp of the right size for your room. Assuming that your room has a normal ceiling height, the scale below will be correct.
Weight of lamp Room size
2-3kg 10 sq m2
4-6kg 15 sq m2
7-10kg 20 sq m2

Where Should Your Salt Crystal Lamps and Candle Holders be used? They should be used in any room where you work, rest or sleep. For example, in the office near to your computer, during massage or when meditating, in your living rooms, bedrooms and when exercising. The lamps are not suitable for bathrooms, outdoor, kitchens, or any other rooms in which there is an abnormally high moisture level. Keep lamps away from water and do not place on damp surfaces and keep in a dry environment at all times.

If it does become wet do not use a high level of artificial heat to dry it - simply leave it switched on will dry it thoroughly. If there is any risk that the electrical fitting may have become damp it must not be switched on - simply place it in a cupboard or any similar warm place. Do not use the lamp again until the electrical fitting has been checked by a qualified electrician.
