Salt therapy machine

Hi everyone I just wondered if anyone has purchased one of those salt therapy machines I keep seeing in the chemist, they are quite pricey about £140, I just wondered if they are any good or make a difference before I buy one. They are suppose to work by thinning your mucas and making it easier to clear of your chest.

Hi

They don't thin the mucus, just make it less sticky. Although I am emphysema slight bronchi.

After four weeks 8 hrs nightly it will shortly end in the bin.

Apart from purchase price the element as to be changed about every four months at a cost of £40.
