Real Himalayan pink salt, obtained from deep underground in the mines of Khewra, Pakistan, located on the western edge of the Himalayan mountains, is hand carved to create lamps that are unique assets to any room. Not only is the Himalayan pink salt lamp aesthetically pleasing, but there are also numerous health benefits that result from having one of these lamps on in your room. Each Himalayan pink salt lamp absorbs water vapor, along with allergens like dust, pollen, pet dander, smoke particles, bacteria, and viruses, from the air. These microscopic compounds are attracted to the salt block and remain attached to the salt; now these particles are no longer floating in the air that you are inhaling into your body. Inside the hollowed center of the lamp is a light bulb that generates both light and heat. Then, the light in the lamps heat up the pink salt crystals resulting in the release of negative ions that begin to neutralize the positive ions in the air. Therefore, because allergens, bacteria, and viruses tend to attach to positive ions in the air, then the impacts of these particles will be reduced with the presence of a Himalayan pink salt lamp in the room as the lamp neutralizes those ions. The water particles are evaporated back into the air, while the other dust, bacteria, and virus particles remain locked within the salt. The lamp emits a soft, pinkish orange glow that can be adjusted to the brightness level of your choice. Additionally, these salt lamps are available in a variety of sizes, creative shapes, and even as small rock filled vases and baskets. Here are 12 reasons why you need a gorgeous Himalayan pink salt lamp (or two, or three, maybe even one in each room of your house).
