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!
