In today’s modern era of technology it isn’t hard to picture that we are living in a virtual beehive of magnetic fields. Electrical radiation is produced by TV’s, computers, overhead lighting, wireless printers and modems, and remembering that we are also cocooned in our homes and offices with walls of live electrical cables – all emitting electrical pollution. AND when we do leave to head outdoors, we carry our mobile phones that are constantly receiving and transmitting frequencies. No wonder we are constantly tired and no wonder illness or dis-ease is on the rise.
However, we can do something to combat these effects in our homes and offices. Himalayan Salt Lamps are Nature’s very own answer to man’s electricity created pollution. Simply plug in and turn on a few Himalayan Salt Lamps around the home and office and instantly feel the difference. Through attracting and evaporating moisture in the air, Himalayan Salt Lamps produce and release negatively charged ions into the atmosphere, instantly negating the harmful effects of the positively charged ions (generated by electrical equipment) saturating our living/working spaces. Allowing our own unique electrical system – us – to operate freely.
The How, Where and Why of Salt Lamps
- Our lamps are made of natural crystal salt sourced from underground salt mines in the foothills of the Himalayans.
- All these beautiful and individually unique lamps are mounted on a marble base.
- Heat from the bulb (in the lamps) or flame (in the candle holders) assists in the emission of negative ions.
- Lamp-created negative ions bond with pollutants (positive ions) and neutralise them – removing them from the air.
- Negative ions combat electro-smog caused by electrical devices (TV’s, mobile phones, lighting, wireless networks).
- Relief from asthma, allergies and other complaints are commonly reported to us from our happy clients.
- These products not only cleanse the air naturally, but are an extremely beautiful addition to any home or office.
Use and Care Instructions
While Himalayan Crystal Salt Lamps are ‘rock’ like and very durable, if the following simple steps are taken they should last for decades.
- Safe to wipe with damp cloth. Excess water will dissolve the salt.
- Placement – not suitable for rooms with excess humidity such as bathrooms or outdoors.
- For best results, we recommend leaving lamp on constantly, ultimately it is your choice. If humid or raining leave on as moisture in the air is increased, this will assist evaporation.
- The lamp will tell you if it is not being used enough by pooling moisture, but ultimately you benefit from having the lamp on more often than not.
- If not in use (and lamp is dry) we recommend wrapping in a plastic bag after unplugging and removing cord.
Electrical Safety Instructions
Ensure power is turned off when plugging in, unplugging, moving the lamp or changing the bulb.
Salt does attract humidity out of the atmosphere. Lamps use the heat generated by the bulb to evaporate this moisture which keeps the lamp and fitting dry and safe. If the lamp is moist, remove cord from the power socket and bulb from the bulb socket and allow to completely dry before reconnecting to the power.
