I personally have no idea but would be wary. Here is another thread about it that you could read:

In theory they could/might work and I know of some people with CF that have had or used them.
However, to my knowledge there is no existing research to back up if they really work. It comes down to one of an uncountable number of ideas somebody has to make this disease more manageable. Each person has to way the pros/cons and decide if it is worth the risk.

I think the risks of exposure outweigh the potential benefit, especially since you can do your own "salt room" with hyper tonic saline and I'd suggest that start around age 2. That is sterile, at home, and prescription.

Actually I was told the same - not to since the rooms are not cleaned as well as we would like and many sick use them, kids play with the salt and so on...
