The mud found along the shores of the Dead Sea is packed with minerals such as magnesium, calcium, and potassium. This therapeutic mud is believed to have healing properties for the skin. Many people come to the Dead Sea to apply this mineral-rich mud as a natural spa treatment, which is not only relaxing but may also have beneficial effects on various skin conditions.
