Healing Benefits of Dead Sea Salts
~ combine with essential oils for aroma-therapeutic perks
The salt water will heal it...
Have you ever heard someone say 'go in the ocean, it heals everything'? I remember being down the shore on vacations when I was young and being told when I would get a scratch or cut to go into the water - the salt water will help it heal faster and prevent it from getting infected.
You know what, it worked!
Nature's bounty...
We are so lucky to have within our grasp various ingredients from nature to help us heal and rejuvenate our bodies - including Dead Sea Salts. It is said that Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine, discovered the healing powers of the sea. Seawater helps to prevent infection as well as provide pain relief - no wonder we love going to the beach!
Dead Sea Salt treatments on the rise...
Dead Sea Salts are loaded with many therapeutic minerals and have virtually no scent. These minerals are beneficial for hair, skin and nails. This is why so many spas are incorporating Dead Sea Salts into their spa treatments. Dead Sea Salt baths are recommended for people with eczema, psoriasis and many other various skin conditions. They also have cleansing and detoxifying properties which aid in cleansing pores and removing toxins from our bodies.
My own experience...
A few years ago when I went to my chiropractor, I told him that my legs felt really achy and heavy. He recommended a Dead Sea Salt bath which I indulged in that night. I have to say, my legs felt 100% better after that bath. I also massaged some of my body oil on them after (of course :). Since then I've become a true believer in the healing powers of Dead Sea Salts. I also have had many cuts on my hand (one of the occupational hazards of being a hairstylist :) and I used my Dead Sea scrub on them. Yes, it does sting for a couple seconds, but the cut heals so much faster and without any scars, that it's totally worth it.
Aroma-therapeutic benefits...
The great thing about Dead Sea Salts is you can add scent to them. Of course to get real therapeutic benefits from the scents, you'll want to use pure, unadulterated essential oils - organic or wild harvested too! Depending on the essential oils you choose, they will have a calming or invigorating effect on your senses. I love using an invigorating blend in my Dead Sea body scrub because the scrub is invigorating to the body and the uplifting essential oil blend will invigorate the mind - a perfect combo!
Try my Wild Honey & Lemongrass Dead Sea Scrub...
I invite you to try my Dead Sea Scrub. But be warned, it can become addicting! I use mine every week. I use it right before I jump in the shower, then I rinse the scrub off in the shower. The less water you use with it, the more scrubby it is, the more water, the less scrubby (if that's a word). You will come to find the perfect amount of water to add to the scrub to make it just perfect for you. Take time out every week to do this for yourself - it's called Self Care! You deserve it and I should not be the only one benefiting by having soft smooth skin.
Try it - if you don't like it, send the unused portion back to me and I'll refund your money. Sound fair?
Give it a try...
Don't forget the couple code above to receive a discount on the scrub - good through this Friday.
Enjoy!
*Important Note: Before using any essential oils, check with your medical practitioner if you have any health concerns or conditions or if you are pregnant or nursing.
