General Considerations

      Sodium ions are known both in the professional literature and by the majority of practicing clinicians as the main stabilizer of cellular membranes at the level of the respiratory epithelium. The presence of the sodium ion causes bronchial secretions and those of the upper respiratory passages to flow more easily by quantitatively increasing the membranous transference factor.

      Ciliary mobility becomes active (even in cases of chronic smokers, for whom, it is known, this mobility is restricted), causing the swift removal of secretions from the respiratory passages.

      The sodium ion reduces distension of the upper respiratory passages (the palate, the based of the tongue and the hairs of the tonsil cavity) which is often diagnosed in cases of chronic snoring. Inflammatory swelling, in terms of opening of the middle nasal passage, is also reduced, bringing about renewed permeability and drainage of the sinuses. These conditions provide the basis for the clinical recommendations for the use of sea-aerosols, treatment at salt mine, clinics and Romanian health spas which give treatments based on salts, in cases of various chronic respiratory diseases.

      By using the Salin® device, reduction of inflammatory swelling in the respiratory passages is assured at all levels, allowing for a gradual reduction of specific drug therapy, thereby achieving greater efficiency in medical treatment. Using the appliance assures much improved activity of the respiratory passages, which constitutes a basic factor in maintaining a sound state of health. The use of the appliance solves a large number of respiratory problems and provides a high level of immunity against various respiratory diseases.

How to use it

      To have a significant healthy effect we recommend using the Salin® device 8-10 hours/day. In the first period of utilization (at least a month) we suggest to use it intensively especially at night. Try using the device as long as you can, at home or at work, even starting the system 1-2 hours before actually entering the room.

      You should place the device 30 - 60 inches distance from you, in your room. It is not recommended to store or use the Salin® device in spaces with high humidity or steam, in dusty places or in the kitchen because this kind of environment damages the saline filter.

      To maintain a pure air, it is a good idea to change the filter every 4 months.
