Through electrolysis. Have a 9V battery with probes attached on hand, and use a blowtorch or the highest temperature on your stove to melt the salt. Then, put the probes in the molten salt, and make sure you don't breath in the fumes it gives off (chlorine gas will kill you). You're left with pure sodium, which makes for some great pranks involving water. ;)
Contrary to [un]popular belief, refining Sodium Chloride into Sodium is in fact dechlorination, because the chlorine is completely removed from the molecule.

Also, a quick word of advice: Check to see if your conditioner also removes chloramine! Chloramine is toxic to fish, and some water conditioners do not remove it. Only purchase the best water conditioner.
