What is a Himalayan Salt Lamp?

Himalayan Salt Lamps are beautiful, functional works of art created entirely out of Himalayan Salt Crystals.
Himalayan Salt is mined from ancient sea salt beds located deep within the Himalayan Mountains where it has remained untouched by environmental pollutants for millions of years. Artisans begin by selecting a crystal and drilling a hole in the bottom.  The crystal is then mounted on a wood base with a corresponding hole in the center that allows a bulb to be inserted through the base and into the lamp. When lit, the bulb warms the lamp, which creates air ionizing effects, while lighting the semitransparent salt crystal from within.  

Coloring

The color of the light emitted by a salt lamp depends on the coloring of the salt crystal used to make the lamp. The coloring of Himalayan Salt ranges from pale, peach/pink to dark shades of red, and is caused by the varying amounts of iron contained in the crystal. The more iron contained in the crystal, the darker the shade of red becomes.

Shapes
The crystals used to make the lamps are either left in their natural crystal form, for Natural Himalayan Salt Crystal Lamps, or hand carved into various shapes before being fitting with a base. The various shapes include animals, flowers, or, the most well-known form, the “Fire Bowl”, “Bowl of Fire” or “Abundance Bowl” Lamp.   Bowl lamps are carved into a bowl or vase shape which is then filled with chunks of Himalayan Salt. Animal shaped salt lamps include dolphins, elephants and turtles, and are popular lighting for children’s rooms. The Natural Crystal forms of Himalayan Salt Lamps range in size from 3-4lbs to larger lamps up to 100lbs or more, which incidentally creates quite the eye catching piece as you can imagine!

Uses
Himalayan Salt Lamps lend a relaxing ambiance to any room with their earthy, smooth glow and are perfect for use in any room of the home. The light from a Himalayan Salt Lamp is emotionally uplifting and helps to reduce irritablility and depression, especially during the winter months when there are fewer hours of sunlight.

Himalayan Salt Lamps are also used by hotels, restaurants, spas and resorts worldwide to add emotionally uplifting and calming effects to their establishments for their patron’s enjoyment.

Benefits of Himalayan Salt Bath or Sole Bath

Sea Salts have been well known for centuries to relax sore, tired muscles and smooth and soften skin, while relaxing the mind and body. The History of Salt/Mineral Baths used for Health Benefits is extensive.

Hydrotherapy or Hydro-thermal Therapy is a traditional method of healing, used for centuries by many ancient cultures in the treatment of disease and injury. Therapeutic baths were considered a standard healthy treatment for the body & it's common ailments in ancient Rome, China, and Japan. Ancient Greeks took therapeutic baths on a regular basis or whenever possible. Therapeutic baths, using natural salts or geothermal mineral water are also documented in America, where Native Americans strongly revered certain areas with geothermal activity, such as the Yampah Vapor Caves & Mineral Hot Springs in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, as a wonderful healing source.

During a Himalayan Salt Bath, or "Sole Bath", toxins stored in the body are released into the bath water through osmosis, while the minerals contained in the salt are absorbed through the skin, reducing the acidity in the body and balancing the pH factor of the skin. This process leaves skin feeling fresh, clean and rejuvenated and may also help reduce Acne and other common ailments of the skin, such as Psoriasis.

The addition of organic, natural herbs such as spearmint, Lavender, Peach Herbal Tea, etc., enhances the salt bath with the herb's own unique healing or relaxing qualities as well as a fragrant herbal scent. More Information About Himalayan Herbal Tranquility Salts>

The benefits of a Himalayan Salt Stone Message include deep relaxation and improved sleep quality, helping to relax the body as it gently draws toxins from the skin and  soothes tense, sore muscles. More Information About Salt Stone Message>

Himalayan Salt - Benefits of Himalayan Salt Air Therapy

Clinical studies have now shown that breathing Himalayan Salt air can help to stimulate the respiratory system's natural ability to reduce inflammation, clear blockages, fight infection and reduce discomfort. Breathing salt air, whether it be the salty sea air experienced near coastal areas, obtained by entering a Therapeutic Salt Cave or produced by Salt Air Inhalers or salt lamps, is reputed to benefit the respiratory system and aid in reducing symptoms of Allergies and Asthma. The New England Journal of Medicine has stated that various forms of salt therapy treatment are effective as an additional therapy for cystic fibrosis patients.

Salt caves are constructed from several tons of Himalayan Salt blocks which are usually heated by lighting placed within the walls. The heating of the salt causes the air in the cave to be infused with a dry aerosol of tiny pharmaceutical grade salt particles. Salt Cave treatment is widely used in Eastern Europe and Russia and has been a well known natural therapy for nearly 200 years. In these parts of the world, people with chronic breathing disorders often spend two to three hours per day in salt cave grottos.
 
For those who are unable to visit a salt cave, these same Himalayan Salt crystals have been fashioned into lamps and candle holders for use by individuals in their homes, allowing you to experience similar effects of visiting a salt therapy cave right in the comfort of your own home!  More Information About the Benefits & Uses of Himalayan Salt Lamps & Candle Holders>

Saline solutions have also been noted for ages for their ability to help with sinus conditions from runny noses to infections. Dry saline generators are certified as medical devices in European countries, and are in use throughout Europe. Their use is increasing in North America with the escalating public interest in health.

Breathing an aerosol of hypertonic salt water (3-7% NaCl) has been found effective as a treatment for the heavy build up of mucus typical of cystic fibrosis. The benefits of this were first noticed by sufferers who regularly surfed in Australia and so were exposed to the natural aerosol of the salt spray. Information About Himalayan Salt Air Inhalers>

The use of saline solution delivered by a nebulizer to treat bronchiolitis in children has also been systematically reviewed. The conclusion was that current evidence suggests nebulized 3% saline may significantly reduce the length of hospital stay and improve the clinical severity score in infants with acute viral bronchiolitis.

Fried Himalayan Salted Cod Recipe

Fried Himalayan Salted Cod -From the Himalayan Salt Boutique
Prep Time: 30 Min. | Soaking time 1-3 days

Ingredients: 

• 1 lb center-cut skinless boneless salt cod, rinsed well
• 1 qt vegetable oil
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons water
• 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon Coarse Himalayan Sea Salt

Directions:
1.     Soak cod in a large bowl with water to cover by 2 inches, chilled, changing water 3 times a day, 1 to 3 days (Brands of cod differ in their degree of saltiness: A less salty one may need only 1 day of soaking, while another could require up to 3. To test it, simply taste a small piece after 1 day; you want it to be pleasantly salty but not overwhelming). Chill cod until ready to use.

2.     Heat vegetable oil in a 5- to 6-quart heavy pot over moderate heat until it registers 385 to 390°F on thermometer.

3.     While oil is heating, whisk together flour, salt, olive oil, water, and parsley in a bowl. Drain cod and pat dry, then cut into 3- by 1/2-inch strips. Working in batches of 4, coat strips in batter, then transfer to oil with tongs and fry, turning, until golden, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet to drain. (Return oil to 385 to 390°F between batches.)

4.    Sprinkle with sea salt and serve immediately.
