We are a wellness community of like-minded people with our own wellness journeys. Our purpose is to bring awareness and education to people seeking natural and holistic methods for healing their mind, body, and soul.
Table Mountain in Cape Town, South Africa; the city where Kari was born and grew up, where Warren & Kari met and fell in love. It is an iconic and meaningful place, and we are so excited to use it as a symbol for our business — and our love.
Co-Founder Of Valley Salt Cave
Meet Kari, the heart and soul behind Valley Salt Cave. She is the co-founder, vice president, and co-owner. She was also the co-founder of Roslyn Salt Cave in New York.
After moving to Los Angeles, Kari began suffering from asthma and other inflammatory issues that led to an auto-immune diagnosis. After getting tired of conventional treatment methods, she began exploring a more holistic approach. This search for a more natural way led her down the holistic path of healing through salt caves. After traveling to different salt caves, Warren and Kari decided it was time to open a salt cave in Los Angeles and share this healing approach with everyone.
Kari’s not just about salt caves though – she’s also about soaking in life’s joys, be it through traveling, cooking, or spending time with her three wonderful sons. So, come on in, experience the healing, and share a bit of Kari’s journey at Valley Salt Cave!
