Salt therapy, or halotherapy, takes place in a room lined with salt, where a halogenerator disperses fine particles of pharmaceutical-grade salt into the air. Clients sit or recline in loungers for 45 minutes, breathing normally; children's rooms often include a play area of salt. It is modelled on the speleotherapy salt caves of Eastern Europe.
Centres market it for breathing, sinuses and skin conditions. The research is limited: a few small studies suggest benefits for some respiratory symptoms, but the evidence is not strong enough for medical recommendation, and Asthma + Lung UK advises people with lung conditions to continue their prescribed treatment. What clients reliably report is a calm, quiet session in an unusual setting.
A 45-minute session costs around £20 to £45, with family tickets and packs available. People with severe asthma, active infections, fever or high blood pressure should check with their doctor first, and salt therapy must not replace inhalers or other medication.

Alongside conventional day spas, the city has dozens of yoga and movement studios, sound healers, breathwork teachers and complementary therapy collectives, and a share of centres that run on a sliding scale or donation basis. Clifton is the polished end, with townhouse spas and clinics around Whiteladies Road offering facials, acupuncture and Pilates. Harbourside has the waterfront saunas and cold plunges, used year-round by the city's sizeable open-water swimming community.
