0Salt of the Earth Offers Cannabidiol Consultations
Salt of the Earth Center for Healing is celebrating their fourth anniversary. Owners Susan Toron DC, AFMCP, and Sheryl Silver MS, FMCA, are reflecting on how grateful they are for the people they have met at their holistic wellness center in Chestnut Ridge. When the women opened the salt cave in 2016, they weren’t sure how it would be embraced by the community. As more practitioners have joined the center, their original vision of a true healing center has come to fruition. Salt of the Earth now offers a variety of natural healing treatments that complement traditional therapies, including a Himalayan salt cave, BioMat therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic, CBD consultations, reiki, functional medicine counseling, CranioSacral Therapy, massage and manual lymphatic drainage.
In the cave, patrons are surrounded by thousands of pounds of pink Himalayan salt in an environment that recreates the microclimate of naturally occurring subterranean salt caves (speleotherapy). In addition to salt on the walls and floor, a halogenerator crushes salt into micron-sized dry particles to be inhaled. (halotherapy). This is a non-invasive treatment that allows the body to use the aerosolized salt as a method of natural healing. Himalayan salt particles have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties which open the airways and reduce or eliminate mucus from the lungs. That makes it an ideal natural therapy for symptoms associated with asthma, allergies, COPD, sinusitis and more.
Toron, a chiropractor, and silver, a health coach, work together to implement a functional medicine approach to wellness for their clients. They believe it is best to get to the root cause of a patient’s condition rather than address only the symptoms. This philosophy allows them to incorporate the multitude of healing modalities offered at the cave. At Salt of the Earth, they will create a plan that is specific for each client’s health needs and assist them on a journey to wellness, including proper eating plans, vitamins and lifestyle changes.
Another specialty they offer at the cave is private cannabidiol (CBD) consultation. This has become a major offering in the health and wellness industry in recent years, and along with the popularity comes a lot of misinformation and products of varying quality. At Salt of the Earth, Toron and Silver have spent the time researching CBD: how it’s made, what the potential benefits are and how best to use it. In the process, they’ve investigated many products to establish the brands they are comfortable carrying at their center.
