Feel Revitalized with Solay Wellness

Have you ever visited the ocean and felt energized or gone deep inside a forest and felt you could breath easier? That is what is feels like when you walk into the new Solay Wellness Company (Solay) store on Main Street in Skokie. And there’s a reason why.

I visited with Isabella Samovsky, Owner and Founder of Solay (est. 2004), and she explained how pure mineral salt is important for health and wellness and how she decided to start her company seven years ago.

When Isabella saw her first natural salt lamps she was attracted to it immediately. Always interested in natural products and wellness, she brought her salt lamp home and decided this was a product and idea worth sharing.


Natural salt lamps help with all sorts of respiratory ailments from asthma to non-seasonal allergies. Most Solay salt lamps are made from the Himalayan salt beds from one of the oldest and purest mineral salt beds in the world. Their customers report improved breathing and immune system function, and an enhanced sense of well being from regular use.

I can attest to the immediate effects of Solay’s pure ionizing salt as my hay-fever symptoms stopped only a few minutes after I walked into the store. But today Solay is about more than salt lamps and that makes sense with Isabella’s sense of community and empowerment. Isabella has created Solay Lifestyle, an array of products made exclusively for Solay with pure ingredients and mineral salts for cooking, cleaning, beauty and health. She has also worked with artisans from around the world to bring additional products that share the same high quality and intentions as her salt lamps.

The storefront includes three spaces and offers more than products:
  • a retail space where you can sample and test products
  • a large community space for events, yoga, workshops, drum circles and more, and
  • the most amazing salt room with salt tiles on the floor. This room offers salt treatments from foot beds to whole body beds where you can relax, detox and energize with mineral salt crystals cut in special geometric shapes for the most beneficial results (I tried the foot bed and the effects where instantaneous).
Solay is more than great products - it’s an experience.
