Balneotherapy at the Dead Sea



This past weekend we camped out on the salt shores of the Dead Sea. Next to where we were camping where pockets of sinkholes that had steam-pools of sulfur and other natural minerals. The mud that is found at the Dead Sea is medicinal, and many people apply the mud to their bodies before bathing in the Dead Sea or in the pools of mineral water.

Apparently, Balneotherapy, is the art of healing through bathing in minerals. I've been doing some research about Balneotherapy and it looks interesting for treating skin conditions and respitory problems.
