Psoriasis – a long lasting treatment is available

Psoriasis is a skin disease afflicting approximately 5% of the world population.  Characterized by redness and dry, flakey skin, there is no known cure for this ailment. The main problem facing sufferers is that, apart from skin irritation, the disease is unsightly and can cause self-consciousness.

Clinical research, along with thousands of testimonials, point to the Dead Sea, in Israel, as being one of the most effective places in the world for treatment of not only psoriasis but also eczema and rheumatism – also diseases with no known permanent cure. A course of treatment at one of the Dead Sea’s spas brings fast and long lasting relief from the disfigurement and pain of many varied skin and rheumatoid ailments, including eczema, psoriasis and rheumatism.

Studies carried out show that the high concentration of salts and minerals in the water and mud of the Dead Sea combined with the unique therapeutic characteristics of the sun’s rays at this, the deepest spot on the face of the earth, is not only highly beneficial to the skin, but has excellent anti-aging properties. As a testament to the therapeutic qualities of the water, mud and sunlight, one only has to look at the thousands of sufferers from eczema, psoriasis and rheumatism who visit the area every year for a course of treatment at one of the many hotel-spas that provide treatments along with a fantastic vacation for sufferers and their families.

Whilst it is possible to purchase Dead Sea products at your local health store, nothing can compare to the effectiveness of a stay at the Dead Sea. Just to give you an idea of the difference, in order to have a bath with the salinity of the Dead Sea, you would have to add some 30 Kilograms of salt to the water, and that’s without all the other minerals that exist in the Dead Sea waters.

If you suffer from eczema, psoriasis or rheumatism, it’s worth finding out more because the Dead Sea can really help.
