The Dead Sea is also known as the world’s largest and oldest natural spa. It is said to have such unique composition of twenty-one minerals, which naturally give the human body a world of wonders. Taking a dip in the Dead Sea can provide hair and skin nourishment, chronic pain relief and mineral infusion. Some of the minerals contained in the Dead Sea include, but are not limited to, magnesium, zinc and calcium. Thousands of people from all over the world visit the Dead Sea year after year. It is one of the most visited historical and biblical sites in Israel. People who travel to Israel really make sure to include a day trip to the Dead Sea in their itineraries. Some of them just want to feed their curiosity on whether or not they are really going to float effortlessly in the water. Some, however, allot a day to pamper themselves with an extraordinary mind and body rejuvenation experience that only the Dead Sea and its surrounding wellness centers or spas can offer. These spas and wellness centers offer treatments like hot stone massages, reflexology, shiatsu or Swedish massages and foot scrubs. Because of this, many people who visit Israel choose to book themselves in one of the many Dead Sea hotels in close proximity of the body of water.
