Long known for its healing properties and very high concentration of minerals, the Dead Sea has offered mud users relief from aching joints, stiffness, skin problems and other toxic ailments. The Seaweed Gel infuses the body with vitamins, minerals & antioxidants, improves circulation, stimulates the metabolism and promotes cell renewal. The Moisture Mask restores the skin’s water-lipid layer and increases the amount of nutrients and oxygen in the skin cells, neutralizes free radicals and protects connective tissue.
