These lamps with salt crystals and semiprecious stones lend a special ambience to your everyday surroundings. The subtle vibrations of the stones or the salt crystals create a cosy atmosphere, and the diffused light offers a harmonious serenity.
Used for a better Feng Shui in living and sleeping areas, also very suitable in children's bedrooms. When used, the salt lamp emits ions that are negatively charged. These negative ions then help produce cleaner air. How can the salt lamp actually do this? The air is composed of many elements. These elements include ions, which are pollutants such as dust particles that are not easily seen by the naked eye. Pollutants make up most of the air particles and they are also positively charged ions. The action of the salt lamp is to neutralise these positive ions by emitting negative ions. When this happens, the neutralised substances get heavy and ultimately fall, eliminating them from the normal air circulation, thereby eliminating pollution.
Electronic devices used at home also produce electro-smog that can affect concentration as well as the breathing of individuals. Ironically, many mechanical air ionizers that are meant to clean the air actually produce pollution of their own. With a salt lamp, this electro-smog is significantly repressed; in fact, the salt lamp helps eliminate electro-smog of other devices in the home, such as personal computers. Salt lamps will not only complement the natural look of your home but they will also encourage health and wellness through a clean environment. Also, a salt lamp not only enhances the health of an individual, but it also helps in keeping other ailments and allergies at bay. For an inexpensive and easy way of boosting the health of your family, try lighting a salt lamp.
Salt crystals have an anti-bacterial effect, especially favourable when there are respiratory problems, sinusitis, allergies and common colds. In those cases, put a lamp in your sleeping room as well. A normal (minimal) 25 W light bulb will suffice for the needed warmth. Apart from this, these lamps are also very decorative.
