Frequently Asked Questions | Salt Inhaler

How much salt should I add to my inhaler?

Your inhaler will come with a single bag of Himalayan Pink Salt. Add the entire contents of the bag to your inhaler.

Which essential oils should be added to the salt inhaler?

Frankincense, black spruce, Immune Illume, peppermint, rosemary, and all of the fir oils are great choices for the inhaler because they support the clarity of the body and mind.

Other elegant choices include: ylang, rose otto, cape chamomile, roman chamomile, neroli, bergamot, lemon, lavender and marjoram.

Try Sweet Sleep Serum before bed. Bergamot and frankincense are cheery and fortifying for any worry. You can also feel free to play around with oils like sage and lemon to lift the spirits and enhance focus. Revive Alive, Frankincense First Friend, Illume Classic Camphorous, Feeling Good Today, Laurel Oracle and Bedtime Story Blend are also lovely options.

How much oil should be added to the inhaler?

Start with a minimum of five drops and keep testing to see what strength you prefer.
We’ve found a sweet spot at 10 drops of oil, yet it truly is a matter of personal preference and the oils that are being inhaled.

How do I add essential oils to the inhaler?

At the bottom of the inhaler, you’ll see a small opening (it looks similar to the opening on the bottom of a piggy bank). The oils can be added to this opening.

How long should I use the inhaler?

The most beneficial amount of time to use the inhaler is for a period of 5 to 10 minutes straight, where every one to two breaths are filtered through the inhaler. You can use the inhaler every day. 

Why is this better/different than a Neti pot?

Neti pots require a lot of preparation, can be messy to use, and may be irritating to some people. Salt inhalers are a different experience and more meditative, they are also mess-free, easy to use, quick to set-up, and great for travel. We recommend bringing the salt inhaler along for car, train and air travel.
