Say halo to better health

TWO years ago, Krishna Bagaria was in Germany on business when he came across a salt therapy centre.

An asthma sufferer, he decided to see if halotherapy -which is touted to address respiratory and skin conditions - could help him.

After two sessions where he sat in a "salt cave" and breathed in micro particles of medical grade salt vapour, the 51-year-old hasn't had to use an inhaler since. Convinced by the effectiveness of halotherapy, Mr Bagaria opened a centre in Singapore last year.
