This is what I was going to post. A salt pool is a chlorine pool and realistically it will have the same amount of chlorine as any chlorine pool. The only difference is the chlorine is generated at a steady level and the salt pool is more stable. I've found my salt pool way easier to maintain than when I was using chlorine pucks. I've never had to shock it with high dose of chlorine.
Some say the salt is gentler on the skin, so perhaps that would help with chlorine sensitivity.
