The Salt Therapy business opportunity allows you to offer science-backed halotherapy — a holistic therapy practice that offers healing and relief to a wide variety of health conditions for humans and also their pets or animals.
The process is simple: open a salt cave — an artificial cave made with authentic Himalayan rock salt and a medical grade salt aerosol device, otherwise known as a salt room spa.
Halotherapy Growth TrendsThe Halotherapy industry is relatively new to the North American market, and many people are just waking up to this new form of holistic healing.
Owning your own salt cave means little to no overhead, and your work simply entails scheduling appointments for your patrons.
If you currently run a salt therapy business or if you’re thinking of starting a salt therapy business, or adding a salt cave to your existing spa, we can help!

Repeat visitors and word-of-mouth advertising from satisfied patrons add to the revenue stream. Not to mention, many workplace benefits plans cover the cost of halotherapy sessions, which further add to the revenue stream.
