Why learn Himalayan Salt Stone Massage from Saltability?

Because it's a "game changer."

Read a review of Saltability Himalayan Salt Stone Massage from Michael Tompkins, past ISPA chairman and executive recruiter, Hutchinson Consulting:

"I'm not sure when I realized it was a game changer. It could have been when I first walked into the treatment room and saw the beautifully glowing Himalayan salt stones, but it wasn't. In fact, it took talking to Saltability founder Ann Brown, seeing the stones displayed in the treatment room, having not one but TWO salt stone massages, and finally using them with my own therapist hands before I realized how big this new trend will be."

"As a massage therapist of more than 10 years, I was very satisfied with the 'traditional' basalt stones that I have been using since the beginning of my career. I was very skeptical of these new Himalayan salt stones and how they would stand up to the test of time, but they are incredibly durable and easy to use. I don’t know if it is the minerals in the stone or the fact that negative ions are being released, but I couldn’t believe how long the relief in the muscles lasted. I have been using the Himalayan salt stones regularly for 9 months now, and I can honestly say that I never want to give or receive a stone massage any other way." — Eric Jensen, spa services supervisor, Red Mountain Resort
