Close your eyes. Breathe deeply. Feel the stress of the day - or of life - melt away as you experience what many consider the healing effects of Himalayan salt. Peace, Love, & Wellness Center, the only salt cave in Pittsburgh, makes it easy to embrace sheer relaxation.

The unassuming exterior of Peace, Love, & Zen Wellness Center in East Liberty gives little clue to the relaxing and healing experience that awaits within.

The warm glow of Himalayan salt lamps will help relax you as soon as you enter the wellness center, which offers halotherapy - also known as salt therapy.

A holistic and 100 percent natural treatment, halotherapy uses Himalayan salt, in a man made salt cave, to help combat such respiratory ailments as allergies, bronchitis, and asthma.

Salt therapy is also said to help skin problems, including psoriasis, acne, and eczema. Breathing in the salt in the salt cave will help strengthen your immune system while ridding your body of toxins.

Allow your feet to sink into the Himalayan salt as you make your way to your chair in the warm glow of the salt cave.

Lie back in the zero gravity chair for your relaxing 45 minute session. Yoga in the salt cave is also available.

Peace, Love, & Zen Wellness Center also offers an array of other services, including aromatherapy, massage, acupuncture, and a jade bed.

Call 412-661-0777 to schedule your 45 minute salt therapy session Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Special packages - including an unlimited monthly pass and an unlimited annual pass - are also available.
