Salt Lamps and You

The most common remark we receive from our customers is how much better they sleep and how they snore less. Those with asthma need less of their medications or not need them at all with a working salt lamp around. We know much of this from our own experiences, which is why we bring them around the world for others here that can use natural air improvement and a "green" method of gaining better health through breathing.

This is ultimately why we do this. Because it's good and natural. No mineral is more potent to human health and well-being. Good for the body, good for the air. It's simple. There was once a day this salt was like gold; used in trade and as payment to workers and soldiers. As long as they were "worth their salt" and earned their "salary". It's a true commodity because of it's age and purity, not to be confused with industrially processed salt, or even sea salt found today from today's oceans and seas.

Even further, Himalayan salt crystal comes in different qualities as it is mined and sorted. Most of what you can find elsewhere over the Internet is the quality which would never make it into our containers, period. Price is not a point we argue as long as what we receive is peerless quality and enough to make even our own trained and hardened eyes say, "WoW, that's gorgeous!".

We see every piece of salt that we ship, everything is hand-pulled from cases, tested, re-boxed, and packed well for a journey with the angriest of UPS drivers and maddest of mailmen. Pretty packaging we don't specialize in; our stuff isn't pre-boxed in Pakistan and only opened when it reaches the end user. These are the perils of same-day shipping during the holidays, which we could never promise while still taking the extra few minutes to plug it in and LOOK....is it something I'd want my MY house? Sure, we pull a baddie every once in awhile, but we don't ship baddies!! We have a far less than 1% returned merchandise rate to back that up too.

Ionicsalts has a big holiday sale going on now. If you don't have a salt lamp, or already own one but want to know what a good one looks like, read up on some info and check the catalog.

Happy Holidays!

Water from Air via Salt - Love it!

Just happened to see a story on the local TV news the other day, and it's very worth sharing. A Florida-based company named Aqua Sciences Inc has developed a remarkable way of harvesting water from outdoor air using the hygroscopic properties of salt which we've emphasized as the leading reason that a salt lamp works so well in improving indoor air quality.

Aqua Sciences™ atmospheric water extraction machines can be furnished and installed in disaster sites, urban, rural and isolated communities to capture, purify and dispense water of superior quality on demand.

Current machines can provide between 350-1,200 gallons of water per day with a target price of approximately $0.25 per gallon dependent upon actual conditions and costs.

Machines may be powered by electricity or a self-contained diesel generator and are environmentally friendly due to lower energy requirements and no harmful or toxic by-products.



This is fascinating given the oddball weather patterns, including the drought we've been under here in Southeast. Lakes are drying up and primary water resources for major areas like Atlanta and Charlotte are reaching dangerous levels; to the point where we hear "60 days of water left"...."45 days of water left".

As long as the oil and energy companies don't get wind of this, it could be an affordable alternative when water is scarce. Otherwise we may be paying $3 per gallon for fresh water!

Anyway, how's your air? Try a salt lamp and breathe cleanly and naturally relieve most asthma and respiratory allergy symptoms that are caused by bad air in the home or office.

Even mold is kept in check by our salt crystal according to one of our customers. Shortly after receiving their salt lamps, her daughter had to grow mold on bread for a class project. In several places around the home, bread was placed according to instructions given by her teacher. After several days, the project was due. Unfortunately, the mold would not grow anywhere in the home.

Why not?
Our salt lamps are the highest quality one will EVER find. With this purity of content and structure is created a very efficient, natural air cleaner. They do not physically remove allergens, mold, bacteria and microbes from the air however. They change the air itself, creating an unsuitable environment by slightly changing the electrical balance in the air, and removing water molecules that are vital to the survival and airborne state of those floating baddies.

On one hand salt creates fresh water out of thin air, literally; on the other hand, high-quality crystal salt improves the air we breathe within the confines of any indoor space.

So, while having your own household water generator maybe be a bit farther in the future, you can do something to improve your indoor air and overall well-being by a getting a beautiful salt lamp
from Ionicsalts.com. Seriously, you get 30 day unconditional, hassle-free guarantee that assures your satisfaction. Discover for yourself what everyone else tells us....we have the best salt crystal product around, bar none.
