The Curative Properties of Dead Sea Mud Baths
While the term “mud bath” may seem like an oxymoron, the black mud from the Dead Sea has been proven to have cleansing and purifying capabilities that actually act to relieve many health conditions. In fact, some health clinics have been set up in the area to facilitate the treatment of conditions such as psoriasis and arthritis, among others. In this tranquil, spiritual setting, the healing process is much more enjoyable than a standard clinic or hospital.
How Does Dead Sea Mud Benefit Health?
For one thing, the Dead Sea has a higher concentration of minerals than any other body of water. Some of the most important of these minerals are magnesium, calcium, bromine, sodium, and potassium, but there are almost 20 minerals in all. For some of these minerals, the Dead Sea is the only body of water where they can be found.
These minerals leach into the mud, and when you apply the mud to your body and allow it to set for a while, the minerals are absorbed through the skin cells. In the process, impurities are drawn out, blood flow is stimulated, cells are renewed and strengthened, and moisture levels are balanced.
Obviously, this process is going to impact the skin, making it clearer, smoother, and more vibrant, but the minerals also continue to do their work at a deeper level, revitalizing tired muscles and easing sore joints. People who have experienced the Dead Sea mud baths reported that the healing effects lasted for weeks.
Can’t Make the Trip?
Of course, it would be lovely if everyone could make regular visits to the Dead Sea to enjoy the therapeutic properties of the mud baths, but it just isn’t practical. Fortunately, there are a variety of Dead Sea products available to provide everyone the benefits of Dead Sea mud baths without actually having to apply for a passport.
One of these products, the Miracle Noir Mud Mask by Dead Sea Premier, provides all the benefits of Dead Sea mud, but it also kicks it up a level or two with a unique removal innovation as well as antioxidants. One treatment feels like a day in a Dead Sea spa.
