| - 2014 Salt Chalet Arizona Review - Fresh 2014 Review of Salt Chalet Arizona -
Halotherapy! I'm a new fan. Seriously, two-too many yelp complainers regarding this awesome establishment. Do the folks in Scottsdale even realize how fortunate they are to have a halotherapy location so close to them? The nearest halotherapy establishment nearest this one is in Tucson. Such ridiculous complaints from D.H and jospehine L. Pay no mind and take in a fresh 2014 review.
Although I live 40mins away, I decided to patronize The Salt Chalet Arizona in order to cleanse my lungs from a seven-year work history in a hospital that dealt with asbestos clean-up, as well as a chronic sinus condition (congestion). Just general detox really since I'm thankfully otherwise healthy. The establishment is VERY EASY to find using my outdated iPhone Maps feature. The sign in front is CLEARLY marked and parking is a breeze.
Mr. Pavel Gershkovich's office sits at the end of a short corridor, within a larger existing DO office. He is friendly and genuine and reviews medical issues prior to the start of the session. His office is very clean, as are the treatment rooms. He provides new booties to wear while in the room in order to maintain cleanliness. There's also a cubby for your shoes, purses, etc. I brought books to read but realized how much more beneficial the session would be if I just RELAXED and concentrated on my '20/20' breathing, as well as the light therapy.
I arrived frazzled and stressed (story of my life). He picked up on this immediately and questioned me about it. He really put me at ease with his gentle nature and concern. The level of genuine care he displayed during the first 5min of our meeting really blew me away! What a wonderfully empathic practitioner, I thought. I could not wait to yelp about him, I recall thinking.
After a short explanation on how to maximize my breathing during the session (20/20), I was led into a small room covered from floor to ceiling in snow-white Dead Sea Therapeutic Salt. There are 5 comfy loungers in the room and the floor is covered inches deep in loose Dead Sea Salt. My favorite part? The light therapy. Mr. Gershkovich encouraged me to not close my eyes during the session as to benefit from the multi-spectrum LED lights that illuminate the room during the session. They really worked! The entire session was so extremely relaxing that after about 15min, I had a hard time NOT falling asleep.
The salted air was WONDERFUL and the level of salt in the air always felt constant! Periodically (and often) more salted-air was piped into the room. I never felt any stinging or discomfort in any way. I could feel the therapeutic air enter my lungs which each purposeful breath and the 45min session left me with salty lips and a fine dew of salt on my clothing and exposed belongings. Loved that! That's how I knew it was the REAL DEAL, no BS here. I was literally taking way deeper breaths in (inhalations) during the last 25min of the session. My lungs opened up, increasing my ability to inhale more air! Crazy, right?
I booked another session for the following week. I left feeling so relaxed and happy, I was worried about driving home. Obviously, I made it. :)
HIGHLY recommend! A truly wonderful experience from start to finish.
