The Dead Sea – Health and Vacation combined

The Dead Sea, at some 400 meters below sea level is the lowest spot on Earth. It is also a place known for centuries because of the therapeutic effects on sufferers from psoriasis, vitiligo  dermatitis and eczema, asthma and rheumatism.

The Dead Sea’s unique location and its geographical feature make it unique. A combination of mineral rich water, constant sunshine with low UV rates, mineral rich mud’s and dry air, make it the perfect place for suffers from skin diseases like psoriasis and eczema and joint aliments such as rheumatism.

Because of its depth and its location on the edge of the Judean Desert, the Dead Sea suffers from extremely high evaporation rates. This means that the remaining water has a very high salt and mineral contents and the evaporated water is absorbed by the exceedingly dry air to form a natural sun block. These features have made the Dead Sea the ideal spot where sufferers from psoriasis, eczema and rheumatism can combine a course of amazingly effective and long lasting treatments with a relaxing vacation with all the family.

No more trips to a sanitarium all by yourself. Whilst the Dead Sea may have no life in it, the area around is full of hotels and things to see and do. After having your daily treatment, that usually lasts for around three hours, you still have time to explore the many wonderful canyons and natural wonders in the area. You can take a trip to historic Masada and ride the cable car to the top of the mountain to wander through the ruins and enjoy a breathtaking view of the desert. Jerusalem, that spectacular city, is just an hour away. Take a trip to the Old City with its amazing market, the Wailing Wall, the Dome of the Rock and antiquities going back over 4000 years and relating to the worlds three greatest monotheistic religions.

Once you have experienced the relief from pain and the enjoyment of the vacation – you’ll become a returning visitor!
