Our mission is to Support, Educate and Inspire Haloprenuers / Halotherapy business owners in a deeper understanding of the disease state, help to ensure equipment performs properly and aid in the successful execution of business operations. We are a physician backed association working to ensure a global standard of excellence in the Halotherapy industry. The WHA will assist in the appropriate practice of Halotherapy to affect the utmost safety and highest standards in the application of the treatment.
Dr Cindy Hollenbeck, President and Founder of WHA, has worked extensively with thought leaders in the respiratory field as a Medical Science Liaison and Research and Speaker Consultant for Merck & Co Inc. She was a Clinical Scientist for Predictive Genetics & DNA Diagnostics, a company that she founded in 2002 to test the proficiency and accreditation of different genetic disease markers. Additionally, Dr. Hollenbeck was a Clinical Scientist for Parke-Davis, responsible for making sure medical facilities were compliant in study details, patient confidentiality, sample collection, and ensuring all clinical standards as dictated by their licensing agency were being met.
In order to offer Halotherapy in a safe and effective environment, there has to be some level of standardization. Both to protect the consumer and to best equip owners and operators with the ability to adequately support their patrons. Additionally, with the rapid rise of the industry, not all Halotherapy technology is the same. Is the particle size milled small enough to get into the distal airways where much of the inflammation resides? What is the proper micron size? We are determined to find these answers and many others to aid and assist those in the Halotherapy industry.

No, the WHA is an independent association. Our goal is to partner with all Halotherapy companies in the support of Halopreneurs around the world.
We will test the particle size and percent relative humidity levels of your cave, room or equipment. You will also have access to disease state background and knowledge training through your portal so you have a deeper understanding of the conditions in which Halotherapy treats.
The WHA uses highly accurate certified ISO lab calibrated aerosol instruments and measuring devices. Your facility will be tested before and after the halogenerator is in operation to obtain the most accurate measurements.
Halotherapy is not an exact science but we can help to ensure you are equipped to offer your clients and customers the safest and most reliable environment possible. When customers see the WHA seal, they will know that the environment has been evaluated for quality of output and the owner/operator has been trained on the disease states in which Halotherapy treats to ensure the safety of treatment. For example, people with more compromised lungs can have very twitchy airways and will therefore need to be introduced to salt at a lower concentration over a longer treatment period.
Peace of mind for both you and your customers!
