What is it about Crystal Salt Lamps that are helping so many people?
It is reported that Salt Lamps have a similar effect to an Ionizer. Salt crystals are said to naturally ionize the surrounding air. How does this help people? It is reported that the fresh air found after thunderstorms and near waterfalls is based on the high air permeability of Negative Ions. Having a healthy concentration of Negative Ions can clear the air of nasty pollutants that cause illness and disease. So how does your Himalayan Natural Salt Lamp actually emit Negative Ions? Our understanding is the emission of ions is caused by the alternating actions of the crystal rock salt’s ability to absorb water, and then evaporate into the air. A heated salt crystal lamp will attract water molecules from the air, forming a NaCl and H20 solution. Sodium is a positive ion, and Chloride, a negative ion. Hydrogen has a two part negative charge and Oxygen is a positively charged ion. These ions create a reaction of two positive ions and three negative ions. After canceling each other out, one
