What Are Salt Lamps?

Our genuine Himalayan Salt Lamps are blocks of mineral-fueled salt that have been hand carved from the caves of Pakistan high in the Himalayan Mountains.

This is the only true source of Himalayan pink salt. Be weary of counterfeits, you will not experience the same positive effects. If you’re not experiencing health benefits, you may have a fake. Remember, you get what you pay for and our lamps do not compromise on quality or authenticity.

How Do The Lamps Work?

When the Salt Lamp is warmed by a light bulb it releases negative ions into the air. These negative ions are what we find when air is “fresh” like at the beach, in the mountains, near a waterfall or even when taking a shower! Negative ions are invisible, odorless molecules that basically damp mop the air free of pollutants. Then they take those vapors back to the Salt Lamp where they are dried out trapping the pollutants inside the salt — and then the cycle repeats.

Living in modern cities and urban environments we are exposed to an excessive amount of positive ions emitted by cell phones, wifi, air conditioners, TVs, electronics in general. By introducing more negative ions into the air with a Himalayan Salt Lamp, we can restore our natural state, returning the body to a “normal” balance of positive and negative ions.

A study by the US Department of Agriculture reports
​when a room is “ionized”
there is a decrease in dust in the air
by 52% and reduced bacteria up to 95%​

What Benefits Do Himalayan Salt Lamps Provide?

Salt Lamps remove mold, dust and allergens from the air thus helping with asthma, allergies and fatigue as well as improving mood, lessening anxiety and promoting better sleep patterns. This is in addition to strengthening the immune system.

The list goes on . . . the increase in oxygenation levels from the Salt Lamps help stabilize brain function (no brain fog!) while the negative ions work to reduce tension in the stomach and intestines improving digestion by promoting the production of digestive enzymes. Wow, right? Why wouldn't you give it a try?

How To Best Use a Salt Lamp

To assemble your genuine and authentic Salt Lamp from Green Pear Organics, screw the 15-watt bulb that is provided with your lamp into the socket on the cord. If you prefer a brighter or warmer lamp, purchase one of our 25-watt bulbs. Grasp the two metal butterfly clasps and gently widen them. Click into the base of the lamp in the allotted grooves. 

Then, simply click your Himalayan Salt Lamp on to…set and forget! Watch for our easy-to-follow video on how to click the light cord into the lamp coming soon!

It’s best to leave the salt lamp on 24-7 allowing it to work full time.

If you have it in your bedroom or a room that requires a dimmer you can find them on our website. Turn the dimmer to an acceptable range…and sweet dreams! Make certain though that the lamp is still warm to the touch at that setting. If it’s  not heated, it’s JUST salt and not really doing its job.
