Over the past few years, Himalayan salt lamps have become very popular. More and more people are using them to decorate their homes or offices but not only as decoration but also what they can offer to health.
The Himalayan salt lamp is also known as the salt rock lamp. This product is handcrafted using pure blocks of Himalayan pink salt from underground mines in Pakistan. In general, they are pink salt crystals which are subsequently cut to give it a particular shape and are drilled at the bottom to place a light bulb inside. The lighting originated is amber.

Many people genuinely believe that these lamps offer health benefits by placing them indoors. Many other people do not fully believe in them.
Do Himalayan Salt Lamps Actually Work?
There is a belief that a pink Himalayan salt lamp provides various health benefits when placed inside a home. It is scientifically proven, through multiple studies, that these lamps offer health benefits.

Some scientists assume that this pink salt is made up of the remains of the first sea. When the bulb heats it, it absorbs water molecules from the air and then releases them as water vapor to purify the air.
Many scientific studies have determined that this salt crystal lamp emits negative ions both day and night. These ions stick to positive ions in the air in order to bring balance to the environment and benefit people's health. Negative ions are used in many treatments to reduce SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) and chronic depression. However, there is no evidence that those generated by the lamp have the desired effect.
It should be noted that this theory is not 100% consolidated. So far, it has only been verified that the negative ion production capacity of a Himalayan salt lamp is not high. That does not mean that it is not capable of purifying the air, but nevertheless, there are negative ion generating machines that have more power.
A study claims that negative ions emitted from these Himalayan salt lamps can help decrease depression, although not significantly.
Many people think that pink salt helps remove dust particles through negative ions to prevent them from affecting your health and that of your family. Other people confirm that these lamps can even improve sleep and moods.
