Dead Sea Salt
The therapeutic effects of bathing in the Dead Sea were well known even in times of antiquity. Galenus, for instance, stated that this salt water was good for the treatment of rheumatism, and the Jewish historian, Flavius, wrote 2000 years ago- “The Dead Sea cannot be praised too highly…travelers take as much of this salt, as they are able to, home with them, because it heals the human body and is therefore used in many medicines.
The waters of the Dead Sea are unique compared to other seas and lakes, first and foremost, due to the high concentration of salts reaching 27% compared to 3% in ordinary sea water. The composition of the Dead Sea salts is also unique. Whereas in ordinary sea water sodium chloride (common salt) is the major constituent (about 80% of the total salt content) the Dead Sea on the other hand contains a considerable smaller proportion of sodium chloride, the balance consisting of magnesium, potassium and calcium chlorides and a comparatively high concentration of bromides.
It is believed that the therapeutic properties of the Dead Sea are due to a large extent to the presence of these other salts, mainly those of magnesium, potassium and bromide. These special chemical composition and special climatic conditions help make the Dead Sea an ideal spot for the curing of rheumatic and certain skin diseases.
Dead Sea salts are a mixture of bath salts which contain the important salts of the Dead Sea. The mixture is obtained by fractional evaporation and crystallization of Dead Sea salts from the brines. This process enriches the therapeutically valuable potassium and magnesium salts, while retaining all the other mineral elements of the Dead Sea.
Benefits:
Softens the Water. The water will feel silky smooth against your skin.
Gives Soap More Lather. Your soaps will lather up higher and with less product than ever before.
Fights Soap Scum Buildup on Tub. Using bath salts with your bath will aid in cleanup after the soak. By creating an alkaline condition it is more difficult for soap to leave a ring of scum on the bathtub or the bather.
Moisturizes Your Skin. Your skin will be softer after using bath salts. Using a bath salt that has added moisturizers will help replenish the lost moisture.
Add desired amount of Dead Sea Salt to running bath water. Mix well to ensure that the salt has dispersed well in the tub before entering. (Sitting on undissolved chunky bath salts can be painful, so make sure the salts have dissolved well before entering).
Ingredients: Dead Sea Salt, Dendritic Salt, Fractionated Coconut Oil & Essential or Fragrance Oil. (optional).
