The Dead Sea is unique first of all in its location. It is the lowest point on earth 400 meters (1,320 feet) below sea level. This unique location has created a mini-universe with its own unique micro-climate with an average of 330 full days of sunshine per year. The sea itself is the saltiest and most mineral-laden in the world. The black mineral mud is famous around the world in its ability to help arthritis related problems and more illnesses. Dead Sea Water - The water of the Dead Sea contains 21 minerals including magnesium, calcium, bromine and potassium. 12 of these are found in no other sea or ocean and some are recognized for imparting a relaxed feeling, nourishing the skin, activating the circulatory system and for easing rheumatic discomfort and metabolic disorders. As an example, the Dead Sea contains 10 times more salts and minerals than the Mediterranean Sea. The high salt and mineral concentration enables everyone to float in its waters but doesn't allow the proliferation of fish and other marine life. Thermo-mineral Springs - Found in several locations along the Dead Sea shores. The many minerals contained in the warm water are dominated by sulfur. Soaking in the heated sulfur pools activates the circulatory system and increases the oxygen supply to the body. Natural Mineral Spring - Water flows from the Judean Hills into the lower areas fronting the Dead Sea. When hiking along the area's "wadis" (seasonal dry river beds) and oasis, visitors can often splash in waterfalls and cool streams. Natural Mineral Spring Water is bottled and locally marketed throughout the country. Black Mud - A signature element of the Dead Sea, black mud is a homogeneous mixture of Dead Sea minerals, important organic elements from the shoreline as well as earth. Indulging in a black mud body wrap has both cosmetic and therapeutic benefits - known to cleanse and stimulate the skin, relieve muscle and emotional tensions, improve blood circulation, and ease rheumatic pain.
