Putra Nikita Willy undergoes Salt Therapy to counteract the effects of pollution.

"He doesn't want Issa's growth and development to be affected by the high level of air pollution in the Jabodetabek area."

Dream - Air pollution in the Jakarta, Depok, Bogor, Tangerang, and Bekasi (Jadebotabek) areas is currently very severe. The air is filled with smoke and many residents are experiencing health problems, especially children. Coughing, sneezing, difficulty breathing, and fever are common complaints among children. This is because their bodies and immune systems are not as strong as adults in dealing with pollution. This is why Nikita Willy is determined to not give up easily in protecting the health of her child, Issa Xander Djokosoetono.

Through her Instagram account, @nikitawillyofficial94, the wife of Indra Priawan Djokosoetono revealed that Issa is undergoing Salt Therapy.

"'Issa is currently not coughing\/having a cold, but because the air in Jakarta is not good, I am trying to do salt therapy once a week," Nikita Willy wrote on her Instagram Story."

Issa appears to be in a room filled with salt. Not only on the floor, but also on the walls. This salt therapy is actually commonly done for children who have respiratory problems such as asthma. The place is very enjoyable for children because there are many toys.

Niki explained that the therapy is very good for her child's respiratory system. "When the child inhales salt, it will help absorb toxins, allergens, and other harmful air particles from the respiratory tract, thus eliminating them from the body," wrote Niki.

What is meant by Salt Therapy?

Salt therapy, also known as halotherapy, is a holistic health program that mimics the microclimate of a salt cave. A specially designed room is filled with salt, from the walls, ceiling, to the floor. The salt used is not ordinary salt, but pure, drug-free, and pharmaceutical-grade salt.

Salt is heated and ground into microparticles with a halogenerator and placed in a room. The room is a salt cave for this therapy and is equipped with a HEPA filter to maintain air quality inside. Salt caves are commonly found in Eastern Europe and are popular places for halotherapy. In the 1800s, a Polish doctor noticed that salt mine workers had fewer respiratory problems compared to other miners. A German doctor also noted the respiratory health benefits for people who spent time in salt caves.

Salt rooms became a popular form of therapy in the 1950s and 1960s.

Salt therapy, quoted from Enisdessalttherapy.com, functions as a thorough detoxification for the lungs and skin. It is claimed to be able to address many chronic and acute health problems. The salt used for therapy can have antibacterial and antifungal properties, eliminate pathogens, open airways, soothe inflammation, and release serotonin. Another fact is that salt carries a negative charge, and salt therapy is also one form of negative ion therapy. Salt naturally attracts positively charged particles and eliminates harmful electromagnetic vibrations in our environment and bodies. This seems to be the main reason why Nikita brings her child for salt therapy.
