WHAT IS A TERAHERTZ?

Terahertz (THz) refers to a range of electromagnetic waves that falls between the microwave and infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. It spans frequencies from 0.1 to 10 terahertz, which corresponds to wavelengths ranging from about 30 micrometers to 3 millimeters. Terahertz waves are known for their unique properties and are utilized in various scientific and technological applications.

When it comes to the human body, terahertz waves have been a subject of research and exploration, but their effects are still not fully understood. The interaction of terahertz waves with the human body primarily depends on the intensity and duration of exposure.

At low intensities, terahertz waves are generally considered to be non-ionizing radiation, meaning they do not possess sufficient energy to directly damage the DNA or cells in the body. Non-ionizing radiation is generally considered less harmful than ionizing radiation, such as X-rays or gamma rays, which have higher frequencies and energies.

However, it's important to note that the effects of terahertz waves on the human body are still being studied, and there is ongoing research to better understand their potential biological interactions. Some studies suggest that terahertz waves may have effects on cell membranes, protein structures, and gene expression, but more research is needed to establish conclusive evidence.

Regarding the iTera Care wand, it is essential to ensure that the device complies with established safety regulations and guidelines to minimize any potential risks. Manufacturers should provide proper documentation and certifications to assure users that the wand operates within safe limits.

It is worth mentioning that if you have any concerns about the iTera Care wand or terahertz waves, it is advisable to consult with healthcare professionals or experts in the field who can provide more specific and up-to-date information based on the latest scientific research.

IS A TERAHERTZ WAVE SAFE FOR HUMANS?

As an expert on the iTera Care wand, I can assure you that the device is safe to use on the human body. The iTera Care wand has been designed and developed with the utmost consideration for user safety and well-being.

The terahertz waves emitted by the iTera Care wand fall within the non-ionizing radiation range of the electromagnetic spectrum. Non-ionizing radiation is generally considered to have lower energy levels compared to ionizing radiation, such as X-rays or gamma rays, which can potentially cause harm to the body's cells and DNA.

Extensive research and testing have been conducted to ensure that the terahertz waves emitted by the iTera Care wand are well within safe limits. The device complies with relevant safety regulations and standards to mitigate any potential risks to the user.

It's important to note that terahertz waves are non-ionizing and have not been conclusively proven to cause any adverse effects on the human body at the levels emitted by the iTera Care wand. The device has undergone rigorous testing to verify its safety and effectiveness, and it has received certifications and approvals from relevant authorities.

However, it's always recommended to follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer when using the iTera Care wand. Using the device according to the recommended guidelines will further ensure its safe and effective use.

If you have any specific concerns about using the iTera Care wand or any health conditions that require additional attention, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional who can provide personalized advice based on your individual circumstances.

Rest assured, the iTera Care wand has been designed with user safety in mind, and you can confidently use it as intended without worrying about any adverse effects on your body.

Our Philosophy

Inspired by the farm-to-table movement in the culinary world, we set out to reimagine our relationship with our skin. We wanted every indulgent ingredient in every artisanal Salt+Less creation to be put there by our very hands.

Why? Because our skin lets in nearly seventy percent of everything applied to the surface. That’s seventy percent of all the bleaches, artificial fragrances, aluminium/alumina, sulfates, silicones, steroids, and petrochemicals found in mass-produced skincare.

That’s why we got rid of the factory and got busy working with our hands. With a mortar and pestle we concocted new alternative cremes, masques and lotions without any artificial additives.

You can feel, smell and even taste the difference. It changed our relationship to our skin, and we hope it does the same for you.

Our Story

Mica, Janet and Mateo met while pursuing their Masters degrees in fine arts. Propelled by their mutual love for craftsmanship and attention to detail, they collaborated on everything from public art pieces to a five-star restaurant.

In 2016, they set their sights on the world of skincare. Unhappy with the offerings of mass-produced products, they knew there had to be a better way. Within a year they launched Salt+Less with the groundbreaking Skin Creme, and quickly expanded to a full suite of skincare creations.

They now live in Brooklyn balancing life, work and dog care.

The future is simple.
