Salt Room Mackay

Breathe clearer, ease sinus pressure, and support ear comfort with private Salt Chamber sessions at Mackay Ears. 
A personal salt cabin experience designed to prioritise sinus hygiene and eardrum pressure relief, not a shared salt room. 

Salt Room Therapy for Sinus and Eare Comfort

What is halotherapy or salt therapy?

Halotherapy, known as 'salt therapy', is a wellness session where pharmaceutical‑grade dry salt is dispersed as a fine aerosol and gently inhaled in a controlled cabin. 
The experience is non‑invasive and aims to support the body’s natural clearing of the nasal passages and upper airways.

Why Mackay Ears?

Mackay Ears specialises in ear health and microsuction ear cleaning, so salt therapy as known as halotherapy is positioned to complement care for sinus‑related ear pressure concerns. 
Sessions run within an ear‑focused clinic environment led by experienced clinical staff and established booking processes.

Ear Comfort with Salt Therapy – Important Information

Ear‑first benefits
  • Sinus hygiene support to help reduce congestion that may contribute to eardrum pressure and blocked‑ear feelings. 
  • Nasal airflow comfort, which can aid equalisation habits taught for ear pressure management. 
  • Calm, private environment that avoids shared‑room distractions and supports sensitive ear clients.
  • People with recurrent sinus congestion, hay fever, or dust exposure impacting nasal breathing and ear comfort. 
  • Workers exposed to dust and particulates (e.g., mining, agriculture) seeking a simple sinus‑hygiene routine. 
  • Families looking for a gentler, non‑invasive wellness option to pair with existing ear‑care routines. 
  • Active respiratory infection, fever, or uncontrolled asthma—seek clinical advice before scheduling. 
  • Recent ear, nose, or throat surgery—wait for clinician clearance prior to attending. 
  • Severe skin breaks or unmanaged dermatitis on exposed areas—discuss suitability first.

Most people describe a clean, dry air feeling and gradual nasal clearing during or after sessions. 
Light tickle in the throat or increased nasal drainage can occur temporarily as passages clear. 

Before the visit
  • Arrive well‑hydrated and avoid heavy perfumes to keep the air neutral. 
  • Remove wet outerwear; keep electronics outside the cabin to protect devices from fine salt. 
  • Continue any prescribed ENT or allergy care as directed by a healthcare professional. 
Aftercare
  • Blow the nose gently to clear loosened mucus and support eustachian tube comfort. 
  • Drink water and resume usual ear‑care routines; book ear cleaning separately if needed. 
  • If unusual irritation occurs, pause sessions and seek advice from a clinician.
