Does this Himalayan salt work miracles on the body? Yes & no. When using the enclosed 5W light bulbs (tiny, like refrigerator bulbs), I swear the room feels different, as in better & my neck/shoulder injury disappeared, while in the room. My mother said she swore she felt better of small aches & pains & allergies, when in the room. Is it in our heads? Who knows... but, the story continues.
Sadly, the bulbs are junk & burn out in 30-hrs tops. According to directions with these lamps, the bulbs are supposed to burn 24-hrs/day. So, I purchased 3W tiny bulbs, as they were all I could find at a craft store & ouch, they were $1/each. They also burned out within 1-2 days. We felt nothing physically from 3W bulbs... but, it was a good ambiance lamp. So, I kept searching for the 5W bulbs. I found Good Sense 4W bulbs at the local market... 4/pack for $3. Still, we don't get the same feeling as we did with the 5W bulbs.
As an aside, if using the lamp for a night light or room ambiance, you won't be disappointed & then, buy whichever bulbs are on sale. Good news is the brand name bulbs seem to last forever. Have had it on at least 12-hrs/day & the 1st bulb has been going strong for 3-wks now (the package promises 2K-hrs of usage).
But, I'm not wanting just a lamp... I bought it for supposed healing properties & am still on the hunt for 5W bulbs (update: just found them on another site for $1.50/4 with $5+ S&H... still, I'll take it). So, I can say that I felt those properties for 5-days with the 5W bulb & since then with 4W, have provided a lovely night light.
I'll update once I get my hands on the 5W bulbs to see if the "healing" continues.
