The Essentials #8 : Essential Chiropractic Recommends Sole Water

Sole Water: A Simple Wellness Essential You Can Make at Home

At Essential Chiropractic in Den Haag, we believe that wellness starts with the basics—hydration, movement, rest, and nervous system balance. One powerful (and often overlooked) wellness practice is drinking Sole water, a natural mineral-rich solution that supports hydration, energy, and whole-body balance.

🧂 What Is Sole Water?

Sole (pronounced so-lay) water is a concentrated solution of natural salt and water, traditionally made with Himalayan pink salt. This ancient remedy has been used for centuries to support digestion, mineral balance, and overall vitality. When the right salt is fully saturated in water, it creates an electrolyte-dense tonic that can help your body function optimally—especially if you're feeling sluggish, dehydrated, or depleted.

💧 6 Benefits of Drinking Sole Water

1. Natural Electrolyte Boost

Sole water helps replenish essential minerals like sodium, magnesium, potassium, and calcium, which are often lost through sweat, stress, or poor diet. This is especially helpful if you live an active lifestyle or are just starting your healing journey.

2. Supports Hydration

Unlike plain water, Sole water helps your cells absorb and retain hydration more effectively, which can reduce headaches, muscle fatigue, and low energy—something many of our clients experience when under stress.

3. Balances the Body’s pH

Although salt is often thought of as acidic, Sole water can actually help alkalize the body by supporting mineral balance. A more balanced internal pH can reduce inflammation and create a better environment for healing.

4. Improves Digestion

Sole water stimulates the production of digestive enzymes and stomach acid, helping you break down food more efficiently. This can reduce bloating and improve nutrient absorption.

5. Supports Adrenal & Nervous System Health

When your adrenal glands are overworked from chronic stress (hello, fight-or-flight), Sole water’s mineral content can help restore energy levels and calm the nervous system—something we care deeply about at Essential Chiropractic.

6. May Improve Sleep and Mood

Trace minerals play a role in the production of serotonin and melatonin, the hormones responsible for mood and restful sleep. Sole water may support your body’s natural rhythms, especially when paired with regular chiropractic adjustments.

🏡 How to Make Sole Water at Home

You’ll Need:

1 glass jar with a plastic or non-metal lid

Himalayan pink salt (finely ground or in chunks)

Filtered or spring water

Instructions:

Fill ¼ of the jar with Himalayan salt.

Fill the rest of the jar with filtered water.

Shake and let it sit overnight. By morning, the salt will have dissolved into the water.

If there's still salt at the bottom, the solution is fully saturated—this is your Sole water!

Store at room temperature.

How to Use It:

Each morning, add ½ to 1 teaspoon of Sole water to a glass of water on an empty stomach.

Avoid using metal utensils or lids, as salt can corrode metal over time.

🌀 Start Your Day With Intention

Sole water is a simple yet powerful way to support your body from the inside out. When combined with regular chiropractic care, movement, and rest, it becomes part of a strong foundation for nervous system health and long-term wellness.
