Treatment with Dead Sea water

The water of the Dead Sea contains an impressive amount of bromide compounds, magnesium, potassium, calcium and sodium chlorides. The water is famous for its rich composition of microelements. Thanks to zinc, copper and cobalt, metabolic processes within the body are restored.

Scientific research constantly proves that the unique mineral and salt complex of water has a positive effect on a wide variety of diseases.


Dead Sea water is used for treatment and prevention:

• skin diseases;
• allergic manifestations;
• joint and muscle diseases;
• tonsillitis, sinusitis, laryngitis, rhinitis, sinusitis;
• inflammatory diseases of the bronchi and trachea;
• rheumatism, cellulite, fatigue, increased irritability;
• inflammatory processes of the genitourinary area;
• psoriasis;
• juvenile acne.

Salt water improves metabolic processes, accelerates blood circulation, stabilizes the nervous system, cleanses the skin, making it elastic, healthy and soft.

As I already said, Dead Sea water has healing properties:

• renews the skin almost at the cellular level;
• stimulates blood circulation;
• promotes the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the skin;
• heals minor scratches, bruises and abrasions;
• cures skin diseases;
• prevents collagen loss;
• cleanses pores;
• rejuvenates the skin and fights age-related changes.

Treatment at the Dead Sea - about which I receive feedback regularly - provides invaluable benefits. According to statistics, people who have visited this miraculous spring in Israel are 90% cured of skin diseases. Sea water is a natural gift that gives health, strength and youth. Patients who visit the Dead Sea forget about medications and hospitals for a long time

Dead Sea mud treatment

In addition to water, the Dead Sea has another health ingredient: healing mud. It contains a very high concentration of minerals and trace elements that are beneficial for the skin, bones, muscles and joints.

Treatment with Dead Sea mud is prescribed for patients suffering from disorders of the endocrine and nervous systems, immune system disorders, metabolic problems and other diseases.

Mud treatments are similar to massage. Mud, due to its natural action, puts pressure on deep-lying tissues. Blood moves into the vessels, improving the condition of the cardiovascular system.


The composition of the mud contains a large number of elements of the chemical table, for example, bentonite, mica, quartz, magnesium salts, potassium, bromine, calcium, lithium manganese, copper, iodine, zinc, iron, etc.

Mineral mud is the most effective remedy for treating joints. It is used for arthritis, rheumatism, deforming osteoarthritis, polyarthritis, psoriatic arthritis, spondyloarthritis, and also in body wraps. Mud relieves joint, rheumatic and muscle pain, the mineral substances of the mud penetrate the tissues and blood, significantly reducing inflammatory processes.

Mud activates metabolism and improves oxygen supply to tissues. Deep heating of tissues dilates blood vessels, improving lymph and blood circulation. Gradually, the body cleanses itself, washing away toxins from the source of inflammation, and the pain recedes.

Mud has a good effect on the nervous system, metabolism, blood circulation, and endocrine glands. Relieves muscle tension, stress, eliminates dandruff, strengthens hair, fights cellulite. Various skin diseases are also curable with this healing component of the Dead Sea.

During the first sessions of mud therapy, an exacerbation of the disease may occur - this is a normal reaction of the body, do not be afraid.

Mud therapy has contraindications: pregnancy, open wounds, cancer, exacerbation of skin diseases. Mud treatment is prescribed only by a doctor.

Treatment with Dead Sea salt

Salt is evaporated from the Dead Sea. Salt contains an extremely high concentration of minerals and trace elements - they are 10 times more than in ordinary sea salt. Therefore, it is ideal for cosmetic and healing procedures, because all its components are easily dissolved in solutions and water.

Salts are used as a preventive and therapeutic agent due to their saturation with useful substances. It is also very effective in cosmetology.

Dead Sea salt is used for a variety of skin conditions. Salt has a drying property and is recommended for eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, seborrhea, peeling skin, and diathesis.


Salt therapy is used for bronchial asthma, urticaria, neurodermatitis, for allergic manifestations in adults and children, and for the complex treatment of inflammatory diseases.

Salt is used to treat muscles and joints. Salt baths help relieve tension, restore strength and get rid of stress. In addition, the heart and blood vessels are trained, since during immersion the pressure increases and the pulse accelerates, but soon returns to normal. After the procedure, you need to lie down and rest for 30-40 minutes.

Salts are actively used in cosmetology: SPA procedures in almost all salons are based on Dead Sea salt. Masks and wraps moisturize the skin, tone it, making it smooth, toned and beautiful.

The Dead Sea is the familiar name for a salt lake, with water unique in its chemical composition and healing silt located at the bottom. This is one of the most interesting and unusual places on our planet. Mud, healing diseases, clean air, some special warmth from the sun and unique nature attract vacationers from all over the world.

On the coast there are numerous boarding houses, sanatoriums, resorts and clinics offering treatment using the most modern medical technologies. Vacationers and patients are provided with comfortable living conditions for proper rest and treatment. Almost everywhere here, Russian-speaking staff work on the road, so there is no language barrier.

Why is treatment at the Dead Sea so popular in Israel, prices, reviews, what are the indications for it? We’ll talk about all this today on the Popular Health website.

What makes the Dead Sea unique??

Water has a complex chemical composition with a high content of minerals. The water itself, as well as the mud from the bottom, have a powerful healing effect. Many patients whom doctors could not help come here and are very satisfied with the result.

In addition to the unique water and healing mud, the climate of this place itself has a healing effect - warm sun and clean air saturated with oxygen. This is due to the fact that the lake is located at the lowest point on earth. Thanks to the healing air, people with lung problems and more come here.

It must be said that the local clinics and sanatorium-resort complexes successfully treat a wide variety of diseases. Their range is very large. Let us list in more detail the main indications for treatment at sea in Israel:

Indications for the sea in Israel

Skin: psoriasis, various types of dermatitis (atopic dermatitis, eczema, acne, neurodermatitis, and also lichen planus, seborrhea, scleroderma and vitiligo.

Joint diseases, spinal pathologies: arthrosis, arthritis, including rheumatoid and psoriatic, polyarthritis, osteoarthritis, osteochondrosis. And also: ankylosing spondylitis, fibromyalgia, bursitis and tendinitis. Successfully treat the consequences of injuries, etc.

Pathological conditions of the respiratory system: bronchial asthma, cystic fibrosis, as well as cystic fibrosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Diseases of the genital area: including prostatitis, erectile dysfunction, etc. etc.

In addition, they will help cope with neurotic disorders and treat vegetative-vascular dystonia. In addition, you can also heal your nerves and get rid of chronic fatigue syndrome.

Treatment options in Israel at the Dead Sea

The Dead Sea resorts are especially popular among people suffering from various dermatological diseases. The water is simply filled with minerals, particularly magnesium. Thanks to this, many skin rashes, such as psoriatic plaques, are significantly reduced, and for many, they disappear completely.

In second place in terms of treatment effectiveness are joint diseases and various soft tissue inflammations, including chronic ones. After being in the sea or taking a mud bath, significant relief occurs, which is due to the influence of minerals that stimulate blood circulation.

Clinics located on the coast are equipped with the most modern equipment. For example, experienced Dead Sea Clinic specialists successfully treat diseases of the spine and joints (intervertebral hernias, spinal stenosis, as well as osteochondrosis and sciatica) using the DTS Triton device. Even a few sessions eliminate the inflammatory process and relieve the patient of pain for a long time.

The Herzliya Medical Center clinic successfully treats orthopedic, dermatological and respiratory diseases. And, in addition, with the help of the most modern technologies, gastrointestinal diseases, pathologies of the gynecological and reproductive systems, and even various oncological diseases are treated.

Modern diagnostic methods and excellent surgical equipment make it possible to perform even very complex surgical operations.

Price of treatment in clinics

At the Dead Sea, treatment prices vary and depend on the components of the therapy. The amounts indicated in the price lists of a particular medical institution may vary significantly.

For example: A medical consultation costs, on average, approximately $300-$600. Full diagnostics - from $1000 to $7000. In addition, the total amount includes the cost of various procedures and medications.

For example, therapy for osteochondrosis and gout costs, on average, $1,735. The cost of one half-hour treatment procedure included in the treatment of eczema or psoriasis costs approximately $137. For 50 minutes of the procedure you will pay $168.

Therefore, it should be taken into account that prices depend on the specific treatment course and the treatment procedures included in it, most of which are prescribed to the patient individually.

It boasts a truly amazing mineral composition of its water, which makes it a unique healing resort. The beneficial effects of the Dead Sea are not only due to the minerals present in its waters. Climate also plays an important role: dry air and hot temperatures throughout the year are also of great importance in the fight against many diseases. you can choose a hotel near the sea.

For what diseases is treatment at the Dead Sea indicated?

Due to the high oxygen content, optimal atmospheric pressure, low humidity levels and the almost complete absence of allergens, the Dead Sea has a beneficial effect on the treatment of respiratory diseases.

A sunny climate has a positive effect on people experiencing stress or depression, especially if these illnesses are caused by insufficient natural daylight (usually typical for residents of northern regions). At the Dead Sea, where the sun shines almost all year round, such patients experience a significant improvement in mood. Magnesium, which is found in sea waters, also helps in the fight against stressful conditions; it has a calming effect on the nervous system.

Swimming in the Dead Sea helps with heart problems and high blood pressure due to the presence of potassium, magnesium and calcium in the water, which help control normal blood pressure levels. Therefore, people who suffer from heart disease are advised to swim or apply sea mud to their body.

If you have problems with the musculoskeletal system, it is also useful to take a healing course here. Phosphorus, calcium and sodium contained in the sea penetrate the skin into the body and help strengthen bones. In addition, these elements help prevent joint inflammation and reduce arthritis pain.

The water and mud of the Dead Sea have a good effect on the skin and hair; this treatment is especially indicated for patients with psoriasis. The high content of nutrients in the water relieves skin irritation, and the sunny climate improves immunity and improves the general condition of the body.

Are there any contraindications or risks associated with treatments at the Dead Sea?

In the Dead Sea region the sun shines all year round, but in the summer the weather becomes especially hot, reaching 40 degrees. Therefore, people who have difficulty withstanding heat should not rest during this period.

Since the Dead Sea is, in fact, an endorheic lake, i.e. Since the water in it only evaporates, but does not flow out, the concentration of salts in it is several times higher than in the ocean. This means that if you have open wounds (or diseases with ulcers), you may experience very painful sensations when submerged in water.

Treatment at the Dead Sea is contraindicated for patients with infectious diseases, renal failure, cirrhosis of the liver, third-degree high blood pressure and those who have had a myocardial infarction or stroke less than three months ago.

IMPORTANT: Our article provides only general information. If you have any serious chronic illness, you should definitely consult a doctor before traveling. Each case is individual.

Stay in the water in the Dead Sea for no more than 20 minutes or less, as prolonged immersion in water so saturated with salts can cause dehydration, electrolyte imbalance and other problems even in completely healthy people. When swimming, it is important to alternate between diving into the water and relaxing on the shore.
