A colleague of my recommended that I visit THE SALT NEST because my son has been having serious respiratory issues. At last assessment, it was recommended he have surgery. He has literally been stuffed up since last year August 2021. He's had multiple ear and sinus infections. In and out of the ER. Diagnosed with chronic rhinitis and sinusitis.
On top of all of that, he has severe autism (non verbal). So treating him, diagnosing, and trying to cure him has been very difficult. I am not anti-surgery, but I am PRO trying to resolve the problem naturally. I am and was willing to try anything.
Well, we booked our appointment for the children's room, one session.
Let me start by saying, the spa suite itself is very beautiful. Though quaint, it is very serene. When we arrived, we were greeted by the sweetest manager, Bria.
As a mother of a child with special needs, I'm always weary when going ANYWHERE. You never know the depth of people's understanding of dealing with a child with special needs. She reassured me that all is well, and I had nothing to worry about.
After walking back to put our shoes away (because the room requires socks), we were guided to the children's room. I must say, they set this room up very nicely for young kids and parents alike. There's plenty activity toys for the kids to play with, while the parents can sit in beach chairs.
Sessions are approximately 45 minutes. I honestly did not think we would make it through 10 minutes. But we made it through 41 minutes!! My son was so engaged in the activities that he did not even realize he was receiving "treatment."
Ironically, after 5 minutes in the room, MY sinuses started to clear. It was a little tingly but relaxing and relieving at the same time. My son did not express any discomfort. And after about 15 minutes, his sinuses start to drain. I was elated.
As I stated earlier, after about 40 minutes, he started to pull me towards the door. I guess he had had enough for one day. When we got home, he immediately took a nap and slept like a champ. No choking on phlegm and breathing easily. Again, it's been a YEAR since we've experienced that type of peace.
It has been 4 days since our visit. He has not been congested since our session. This is a miracle. I plan to take him for a session weekly AT A MINIMUM. We have both slept very well the last 4 days.
Your mileage may vary. I can only share OUR experience. I recommend anyone to try it at least once.
