Benefits of Dead Sea Mud

The Dead Sea Is Basically The Biggest Natural Spa On The Planet

Although it has a rather morbid name that makes you wince, the dead sea is essentially our greatest natural spa and certainly something we should be thankful for. The water in the dead sea is rich in numerous minerals, including super high levels of bromide, sulphate, potassium, magnesium and calcium, as well as clay and nutrients that absorb into our skin and work wonders for our health.

They can rejuvenate our skin, plump it up and eliminate wrinkles. Dead sea mud is rich in the aforementioned minerals, which means that it is ace at improving skin functioning and rehydrating it when it’s feeling dry.

Here are 5 Proven Health & Beauty Benefits of Dead Sea Mud

1. Detoxifies

The mud’s gentle pulling action helps gently exfoliate the skin and draw out impurities and toxins, so it’s a perfect part of any holistic health detox plan. It’s also great for oily, acne-prone skin.

2. Increases Circulation

Ever noticed how after doing a facial your skin is red? That’s because facials stimulate blood flow and body masks or wraps do the same thing. Circulation helps bring vital nutrients and oxygen to your cells and carry away toxins and wastes — all essential to healthy and normal cell functioning.

3. Improves Skin Health

Dead sea mud is high in minerals, such as sodium, chloride, magnesium, potassium, iron, and calcium, so it nourishes the skin. It also naturally softens and moisturizes, so it dramatically improves the appearance and health of your skin leaving it more tone, even in texture, and clearer.

4. Treats Skin Conditions

Studies by the Dead Sea Research Center (DSRC), a non-profit organization, have shown Dead Sea mud is useful for treating skin conditions, such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and vitiligo, especially when used in conjunction with adjunct therapies, such as Dead Sea bathing, moisturizing creams, and increased sun exposure.

5. Relieves Aches & Pains

Dead sea mud is therapeutic and useful for treating rheumatic conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. It’s also beneficial for fibromyalgia, tendonitis, bursitis, sports injuries, and recovery from orthopedic surgeries according to the DSRC. It’s even useful for relaxing sore muscles. Therefore, take advantage and use the mud as a pack to treat specific sites if you don’t have time for a full body treatment. Also, combine treatments with soaks in water enriched with Dead Sea salt for maximum results.
