The Dead Sea has been discovered to hold health relieving properties. It has also been found to 
heal certain ailments. Some of the most common ailments that the Dead Sea helps to alleviate are
psoriasis, muscles spasms, and arthritis. Salts from the Dead Sea are known to relieve muscle 
spasms and arthritis pain. A Dead Sea seven step treatment helps to relieve and get rid of 
psoriasis rashes. This treatment starts with sun exposure as a sort of radiation treatment. The next
is bathing in the Dead Sea. After that is the use of creams made from the Dead Sea. A mud 
treatment follows after. A scalp treatment usually follows due to the fact that most psoriasis 
patients suffer the worst on their scalp. Psychological treatment is pursued when needed. The last
step as usual is a medical follow up. Properties of the Dead Sea continue to help heal and relieve 
many ailments to this day. - Nicole

 

 

 

Soon it will all be gone! In the blink of an eye the Dead Sea will be gone because of us. Slowly but surely 

the Dead Sea is disappearing because of the impact we humans are having on it. You are probably 
thinking to yourself what are you talking about. It might be called the Dead Sea but it isn’t really dead. 
There are many things we humans use the Dead Sea for including skin care products and industrial use. 
The people that live near the Dead Sea are using up the water that flows to the Dead Sea. Over the years
the their population has been growing which causes them to use more water. Things like this are really 
affecting the Dead Sea. The Dead Sea already has problems of its own with it being a extreme 
environment and all but we aren’t making it any better. Another large problem that is really having a 
huge affect on the Dead Sea is the fact that large industrial plants are draining water from the Dead Sea 
and harvesting minerals from the Dead Sea to make skin care and make-up products. As a result of 
humans using the Dead Sea for all their personal uses the Dead Sea’s shore has been receeding at a 
alarming rate. The Dead Sea has lost over one third of its surface and sinkholes are popping up 
everywhere in that region. The Dead Sea is already 424 meters below sea level but with our human 
impacts affecting the Dead Sea is making it worse. Soon there will be no Dead Sea to go swim in on 
vacation.  -Mystic
