Abstract
This study aims to examine studies in which salt therapy and exercise were considered together in chronic respiratory diseases. For this purpose, studies in Pubmed, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, Researchgate, and Scopus academic databases were examined between 2020 and 2024. In the literature, it is seen that patients achieve physical, psychological, and social gains as a result of separate applications of salt therapy and exercise. However, it is striking that studies in which both are considered together are quite limited. In this context, when the results of studies in which salt therapy and exercise are combined are examined, it is seen that considering both types of therapy together can strengthen the benefits obtained more. In this regard, there is a need for studies with a high level of evidence in which salt therapy, also called speleotherapy and halotherapy, is considered together with exercise.
