Halotherapy, derived from the Greek word "halos" meaning salt, is a natural therapy that involves breathing in air infused with tiny salt particles. Siwa Oasis is home to unique natural salt caves formed from ancient salt deposits.
These natural salt formations create a microclimate rich in negative ions and salt aerosol, providing powerful therapeutic benefits for respiratory conditions, skin problems, and overall wellness.
