The Dead Sea enjoys a somewhat colorful history that dates back as long as man can remember. Long believed to be a place of healing and therapy, the sea is one of the world’s most unique natural features.
Mystical waters
Located at the lowest ‘dry’ point on Planet Earth, the sea – which features a wide range of minerals within its waters, including some that are truly unique – has been sought out for centuries by travelers looking to heal their injuries and ailments, as well as those in search of a way to stay young. It is said that Cleopatra was a regular visitor to Dead Sea shores while Herod the Great built his palace at Masada, overlooking the giant salt water lake.
Today, visitors continue to flock to the region. Some do so simply to take in the beautiful scenery. Others come in search of the numerous biblical and historical locations nearby, including the ruins of Herod’s palace. Others follow the path of so many that came before them, looking to soak in the waters and relieve their illnesses and complaints.
As such, a huge spa industry has blossomed on the shores of The Dead Sea, a result of the many health seekers journeying to this part of the world. Hotels dot its banks, offering mud baths and the latest in spa treatments, as well as sun-loungers and access to those mystical waters. People travel from across the globe, paying good money to rest and relax in the unparalleled comfort that can be found here.
Harnessing the power of the Dead Sea
But the therapeutic powers of the sea are no longer restricted to the region and now stretch far beyond its shores and far beyond Israel and Jordan. The region has become home to one of the world’s most popular cosmetics industries.
Dead Sea cosmetics are shipped around the globe, with many consumers enjoying the healing qualities of the sea in the comfort of their own home. From mud masks and body butters to eye serums and shampoos, consumers enjoy products made with minerals sourced from the sea itself, minerals that not only help to look after the skin but also help it to fend off the signs of time.
