Salt Pipes?

[sue930]

Just been doing a bit of searching about salt pipes which can be used for Asthma and Copd but apart from the customer reviews(are they real!) l have nothing to go on so would like to know if anybody has used one,did they get any benefits from it and if there are any 'risks' in using one .

" Hello to you Sue.

I have just been reading your post regarding the use of the salt pipe, and Yes! they are real I have been using one for a few months now. I have found them really rewarding, the only draw back with them is.. it leaves you with a bit of a salt taste in the back your through. But I have now got used to the taste of salt plus the upside to it is. using various puffers I find the salt keeps my mouth fresh.. please I am sending you this link to the one I use Sue.... Best of luck to you. .... Megan."

hi ya . have not used one myself but when I was in hospital a while ago I had a polish nurse and we were sitting talking one night and this subject came up . well she said out in her country they they have salt mines where people like us go and sleep over night . she said the benefit is marvellous for them . so having a salt pipe over here is next best thing .

Recently Sue, someone posted regularly on her/his progress over a few weeks with her salt pipe. The results were positive I recall.

Try putting salt pipe into the search bar, I'm sure those post will come up

..... I personally do believe the reviews are real

Hi sue I have a salt pipe,can be purchased from health shops I tend to use mine when I have a flare up and I believe it helps.

Think ,like,everything there will be those who get positive results & those,like my husband who found it did absolutely nothing - we did get a refund - but they're worth a try .

I did use to have a salt pipe ages ago. Now I have saline solution for my nebuliser, as and when needed.

I see it this way. If saline is used to help clear mucus then I don't see why a salt pipe shouldn't work in a similar manner.

Just my thoughts on the matter.

Dear Sue 930,

Re your query about salt pipes , from my own experience I felt no benefit at all from the one I bought, I gave it a thorough testing but I 'm afraid I was disappointed, that is only my experience others may find different of course,

Best wishes ,Mike71
