Salt Caves: The Unexpected Spa Trend Taking Over NYC

While exploring a salt cave sounds exhausting, we promise, there's no spelunking involved. In fact, lounging in a room made of Himalayan salt is both relaxing and therapeutic. Apart from what the skeptics say, it’s become quite clear that salt therapy is not a scam and should be included in every game plan for enhanced health. In the words of the founder of Salt Chamber Inc., "Kinetically activated dry salt particles are like an army of janitors helping to detox the respiratory system." On top of such benefits, basking in a salt cave has been proven to “support the immune, nervous and lymphatic systems.” Needless to say, New York's health gurus are obsessed.

Now that you know why you should get #salty, let us tell you where. Who knew NYC boasted this many caves?
