Infrared Salt Sauna
Sôlt Haus is the only studio on the Northern Beaches offering medical-grade halotherapy in combination with the gentle heat of infrared sauna. This unique therapy offers a wide range of restorative benefits for body, mind, skin and soul.
Halotherapy - also known as “salt therapy” - involves breathing in micronised particles of salt to reduce respiratory inflammation, clear congestion, calm asthma and allergies, and support immune defence. Salt’s antibacterial properties are also beneficial for skin health and can help to soothe flare ups of eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, and acne.
In combination with the dry heat of infrared sauna therapy which boosts circulation, calms inflammation, and promotes full-body relaxation, the benefits of halotherapy are further enhanced. Together, the therapies support long-term nervous system regulation.
The therapeutic effects of our Infrared Salt Sauna experience are cumulative, so we encourage regular sessions to optimise and extend the benefits. We now offer memberships and value multipacks to give you more ways to integrate the ritual into your weekly wellbeing schedule.
A PLETHORA OF BENEFITS
for physical & mental wellbeing
Recovery & relaxation
Infrared heat works deep into the body to ease tension, support muscle repair, and reduce inflammation. Paired with salt air which eases breathing and calms the nervous system, the result is total mind–body relaxation.
Detox & weight management
Sweating supercharges your body’s natural detox process and increases metabolism. Unlike traditional saunas, infrared heat warms you from within for more effective results, and the intensity can be adjusted to suit your goals. Sauna and red light therapy can also help regulate hormone production.
Skin rejuvenation
Infrared heat and red light revitalise skin by stimulating collagen production and blood flow to smooth texture and tone. Heat opens pores and salt air soothes and clarifies the skin. Regular use can even help with conditions like acne or eczema.
Heart & lung health
Raising the body’s core temperature improves circulation and lowers blood pressure, while salty air eases congestion and opens airways. Together these therapies support a healthy heart, lungs and overall immune system.
Emotional wellbeing & sleep
Infrared heat, red light and salt therapy work together support emotional wellbeing by regulating stress hormones, releasing endorphins, and relieving tension subconsciously held in muscles. Red light in particular has been shown to improve sleep by stimulating melatonin production.
