Taking note of the city's worsening air pollution, Israeli entrepreneurs Omri and Caroline Shamir opened an alternative salt-therapy centre to offer us a whiff of clean air.

The centre, called Inhalo, has two suites for adults and a playroom for kids mimicking the microclimate of natural salt caves in Eastern Europe.
The couple hosted a series of media trials last week at the recently opened spa in Central's W Place.
During the 50-minute session, medical salt from Europe was ground into fine air particles and pumped into the room to increase the concentration of salt in the air. The treatment, popular in Eastern Europe and Australia, is brand new to Hong Kong. (More information can be found at www.inhalospa.com.)
'It's an all-natural treatment to alleviate many respiratory problems associated with poor air quality, including bronchitis, chronic cough, congestion and asthma,' Caroline said.
