The Wonderful Healing Power of the Dead Sea


The Dead Sea is the lowest point on earth in any land mass: -417 meters below sea level and can also be called "the lowest health spa in the world." It's the only place in the world that combines all for greatest health effects: year-round hot weather, the higher atmospheric pressure, an enriched oxygen and very low content of allergens in the atmosphere, reduced UVB solar radiation, a mineral-rich salt and mud.

Cleopatra and the Queen of Sheba is known to have used the black mud and salts, which contain more than 20 kinds of mineral elements and provides health, relaxation and beauty.

Research has shown that Dead Sea products have a long lasting positive therapeutic effect on dermatological diseases such as psoriasis, eczema and other skin diseases. The most popular is the mud mask, which helps tighten the pores and stimulates and nourishes the skin, giving it a radiant and more youthful appearance.

The Dead Sea mud is rich in minerals which have antiseptic qualities. Covering the body in mud helps the minerals absorb into the body while the top layer of skin is purified and cleanse. Cover your body with the black mud can provide skin protection from physical ailments, such as black spots, acne, pimples on the back, arthritis, muscle stiffness, rheumatism and degenerative joint diseases.

Salt is a natural ingredient with few side effects. Used topically or in a bath, salt has many healing properties that can benefit you. It can be used to relieve acne and skin irritations, hives, psoriasis, dry and cracked skin, rheumatologic conditions, muscle aches, stress and insomnia.

Salt packs have been used for years as a remedy for swelling and pain relief. A hot compress made with salt is said to reduce inflammation and infection.

A salt scrub is a formulation of salt and other ingredients which is used to exfoliate dead skin from the body. Regular exfoliation promotes healthy, glowing skin by removing layers of detritus and dead material all at once.

Dead Sea salt is renowned for its ability to renew the skin, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, smooth and soften, and leave skin looking younger. Dead Sea cosmetics help the skin retain water and help keep it moisturized. More moisture in the skin leads to a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles and the prevention of new wrinkle formation.

For over 2000 years people have recognized the healing powers of the Dead Sea. The extraordinary chemical composition has made the Dead Sea products an ideal solution for people seeking relief from skin, rheumatism and other disorders.
