When I read about the benefits of salt crystal lamps, I knew I had to try them in my home.  When you do a search for “salt lamps” or “Himalayan salt lamps,” one of the few websites that come up is HimalayanSaltShop.com.  I received my lamp within a few weeks and couldn’t wait to set it up and turn it on!  It is so beautiful and has a soft glow.  I received the 6-8 lb crystal salt lamp and I was surprised at how heavy it was!  The lamp is a nice solid and sturdy lamp.  I have my lamp on the bedside nightstand.

About the 6-8 lb salt lamp:

The 6-8 lb. Himalayan Salt Crystal Lamp is a common first purchase. It is still on the small side, but big enough for sufficient ionization of a small bedroom. It allows you the luxury of significant ionization at a low price. Those who wish to start their ionization process in their bedroom typically look for this lamp. From our experiences, the people who start out this way usually enjoy the lamp and decide to furnish additional rooms in the home.

I was immediately hooked by the benefits of having the salt crystal lamps in the home.  Not only are the decorative, they are a natural air purifier!  The beautiful lamps do not take up much space either.  Here are the benefits:

Salt Crystal Lamps – Nature’s Air Purifier

We spend most of our lives in enclosed places. Our frame of mind and physical condition depends upon the composition of the air that we breathe. Air is electrically charged, which means it contains in definite proportions, positively charges molecules (positive ions) and negatively charged molecules (negative ions).

Negative Ions clean the air of:
Dust, Pollen (grass, weed and tree pollen), Animal Dander, Smoke, Odor, Mold Spores

Negative Ions help relieve symptoms of:
Hay Fever, Asthma, Seasonal Affective Disorders, Depression, Chronic Fatigue

Ionizing Air:
Apart from their aesthetic beauty salt lamps are also reputed for a variety of beneficial effects like ionizing air in a room & humidity reduction.

Affects on Our Health:
Salt Lamps have been used as natural treatments for: Rheumatism, Allergies, Respiratory diseases, and Migraines.

Best Places for Salt Lamps:
In the house, for the Office and Computer Users, Meditation, in Massage rooms, Natural Health Practitioners, for Psychiatrists, for Allergy Sufferers

I am addicted to my salt crystal lamp and I can’t wait to add more around our home.  I am all about purifying our indoor air as I have asthma and allergies.  My love and addiction of houseplants help clean our air.  Unfortunately, the apartment we live in gets very little sunlight (our windows are surrounded by bushes and trees).  I am unable to have as many houseplants as I would like to.  The salt crystal lamp is a perfect substitution to cleaning our air!

As you can see, they come in different shapes and sizes.  You can choose a certain shape or you can even order a package deal!
