If one of your New Year’s resolutions was to take better care of yourself or to decrease stress, then visiting a salt cave might be just what you need. Salt caves are man-made rooms infused with salt and lined with Himalayan rock.

Spend time in one and you’ll be undergoing halotherapy or salt therapy. This popular all-natural holistic therapy can help people who suffer from respiratory ailments like bronchitis and skin conditions such as eczema. Meanwhile, the salt-infused air can help release toxins from the body, strengthen the immune system, and completely relax you.

There are many reasons for escaping to visit one of these salt caves in Connecticut and once you go, you may never want to leave.
