The Salt Cave in Gellert Spa is more like a Salt Chamber (Sokamra) with cubicles.
Salt therapy for inhalation is an extra medicinal service, not part of the regular bath services. This means that you will need to pay some additional fee on top of the bath ticket. Once you take seat in your cubicle in the Salt Chamber, you can start the 15 min salt therapy. The chamber is filled with salty extract for inhalation to relieve asthma and other lung problems. The treatment is fast, more medicinal than spa, unlike typical salt therapies, which include a longer stay in a Salt Cave.

How do I book the salt spa? Can i do to before we arrive…
Dear Kay,
tickets to the salt chamber can only be purchased at the cashier. Thank you for your understanding.
Several years ago I visited the medicinal part of the spa. I suffer from nasal congestion and a nurse mixed up some potion and I was placed on an inhaler for a few minutes. The treatment worked for several years. Can you tell me if this is still offered? What is the proper procedure to enter that part of the spa?
Dear John,
we have contacted you via email.
