Himalayan salt rooms are taking the world by storm—salt storm, that is!

With high income potential, high return on investment, and wellness benefits that are out of this world, many are drawn to starting a salt cave. But if you don’t know what you are doing, you are risking your investment, as well as the health of your customers!
