Finding Solace & Community with Salt Therapy featuring Dasha Grankina & Anna Shulgina

In this episode, Anna, Dasha, and I dive deep into the world of holistic wellness, exploring a variety of therapies designed to promote physical and mental well-being.  They discuss the health benefits of salt therapy, which can help with respiratory issues, skin conditions and overall relaxation by expolsing the body to dry salt in a controlled environment.  It is both beneficial for adults and children and may even help children who are neurodivergent.  

We highlight the importance of building community, emphasizing how shared wellness practices and support networks can enhance personal growth and healing.  

We explore the benefits of cedar barrel steaming, a traditional therapy that combines the detoxifying effects of steam with the natural healing properties of cedar wood, know for its antimicrobial and stress-relieving benefits.  We also touch on the benefits of infrared sauna and red light therapy.  

Whether you're looking for relaxation, detoxification, or community-driven healing, this episode provides valuable insights into holistic self-care practices.

In December 2024, Dasha Grankina and business partner Anna Shulgina opened Bodhi Salt in Louisville, Kentucky. The two met when Grankina was managing a team of educators and Shulgina was looking for alternative wellness solutions for her son’s allergies. Their shared experiences with asthma, allergies, and a lack of  effective wellness facilities in the region led them to create Bodhi Salt, a space that blends cutting-edge wellness and personalized care.

Bodhi Salt’s 2,400-sq.ft. luxurious yet welcoming space offers a unique combination of salt therapy, steam cedar barrels, and a specialized children’s salt room, making it unlike anything else in or near Kentucky. Drawing from her decades of experience in education and leadership, Grankina developed the center’s children’s programming, ensuring a blend of wellness, learning, and engagement.
