Himalayan Salt Rock Lamps not only make your room feel cozy, but they also improve the air quality, release frequencies that boost your mood and help you sleep. These lamps are carved from mineral-rich, pink salt mines and their health benefits come from their ability to change the electrical charge of circulating air as "natural ionizers."
