Spots. Inflammation. Red patches. Skin that never really settles.
Cleansing gel. Cream. Another course of treatment. And just when things seem to improve, the next breakout arrives.
At HaloClinic, we do something different: professional dry salt inhalation. For 60 minutes, a professional halogenerator disperses microscopically fine, dry particles of medicinal (pharmaceutical-grade) salt throughout the salt room.
You sit. You breathe. The salt does its work.

What halotherapy does for acne
- Cleanses the skin
- Reduces inflammation
- Calms redness
- Has an antibacterial effect
- Promotes natural skin repair
- Hydrates the skin from within
- Reduces oily, unsettled skin
- Promotes a smoother skin texture
- Soothing for body and mind
The goal isn't one less spot. It's skin that finally stays calmer.
Why does it work beyond the surface?
Acne is linked to inflammatory processes and bacteria. Halotherapy acts on exactly what causes and sustains these processes.
There is no need to undress. You keep your normal clothes on. The fine salt particles are inhaled and also hydrate the skin from within — starting in the deeper skin layers, rather than just a layer of cream on top.
What do you really want back?
- fewer new breakouts
- smoother skin
- less redness
- calmer skin
- confidence when you look in the mirror again
A halogenerator, not decoration
Salt bricks on the wall look nice, but they don't produce a therapeutic dry salt aerosol. At HaloClinic, a professional halogenerator disperses medicinal (pharmaceutical-grade) salt as microscopically fine, dry particles throughout the salt room.
That is professional dry salt inhalation.
Salt and skin repair are nothing new
The connection between salt and health goes back further than you think. As early as 1830, Polish physician Dr. Feliks Boczkowski discovered that salt miners almost never suffered from breathing problems.
Modern salt room technology brings this principle into a controlled treatment space. Throughout the session, a professional halogenerator produces a dry aerosol of microscopically fine particles of medicinal (pharmaceutical-grade) salt.

Research at HaloClinic Nederland
A researcher from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam followed 12 HaloClinic clients with respiratory and skin conditions.
clients followed
were taking medication
stopped completely
reduced their medication use
reported improvement
These are the results for the study group of 12 participants; this was not a separate acne study.
How many sessions?
One session gives you a first taste. For skin that stays calm, we use a series of sessions.
For acne, you start with 2–3× per week. The initial course is approx. 15–20 sessions. After that: As needed.
For young people too
Acne often affects young people in particular, at an age when confidence matters so much. An hour in the salt room is also a moment of calm: no scrub, no mask, no cream. Just sit, breathe and relax.
