Sea salt to treat psoriasis

Last weekend I went for a swim in a spa just across the border. The spa is called Bad Bentheim and is quite unique in that it is a Dead Sea salt bath.
-
In an earlier article I wrote briefly about the healing properties of Dead sea salt in the treatment of skin complaints.
-
But guess what, dead sea salt can work really well against psoriasis!

Swimming in a spa is the best option because of the high concentration of salt and minerals. But a spa is not always a practical solution. For example, I was on the road for over an hour myself and to treat psoriasis a home treatment is better.

It is best to use dead sea salt because dead sea salt is full of important minerals. In fact, Dead sea salt has the highest mineral concentration in the world and is increasingly used to treat skin conditions.
Minerals such as:
-
Magnesium, for example, is very important to reduce stress and help rejuvenate the skin and heal from infections. Calcium is important for blood circulation and potassium is important for restoring fluid balance.
-
All minerals important to help the skin recover from psoriasis.

The difference between dead sea salt and normal seawater is therefore in the amount of minerals. In normal seawater you will find almost no minerals except salt. In fact, the water of Dead Sea has no less than 27% different types of salts and minerals.
-
In contrast, â € ˜â € ™ normalâ € ™ â € ™ sea water has only 3%.

It is no wonder that one can float on the waters of the Dead Sea. I had the same effect in the salt bath in Bad Bentheim, quite a strange experience I must say.

This can irritate the skin and is certainly not recommended if you have psoriasis.

This can cause extra irritation to the skin and is certainly not recommended if you have psoriasis.
-
You can get sea salt at the health food store or drugstore (also online). Make sure to buy sea salt with enough minerals. These minerals are extremely important for fighting psoriasis.
-
The somewhat â € ˜â € ™ lesserâ € ™ â € ™ varieties have a low amount of minerals and I do not recommend them.

Preparing a bath of salt is quite simple. Take about 8 tablespoons and let it sit for a few minutes. The ideal temperature of the bath is around 38 degrees Celsius.
-
Then take a bath for about 20 minutes. Repeat this 3 to 4 times a week for best results (depending on the severity of your psoriasis). After taking the bath, gently pat the skin dry (do not rub) and treat with a good moisturizer or special psoriasis ointment.

A good tip is to add essential oils in addition to dead sea salt. Think tea tree oil or lavender essential oil. Be careful with the temperature of the bath because too high temperatures can affect the functioning of essential oils.
-
In addition, you should always first check whether an allergic reaction can occur when using essential oil.
-
I myself have experience with this where I got an allergic reaction from an olive oil body lotion. The result was eczema on my body for several weeks.

Conclusion
-
Many people have had good results with reducing psoriasis by taking a Dead Sea Salt bath. Remember that consistency is the key to success and it may take a while before you notice a reduction in symptoms.
-
In addition, a Dead sea salt bath can be combined well with an essential oil treatment. Make sure you don't get an allergy.
-
I myself take a dead sea salt bath twice a week and turn it into a complete anti stress ritual. A little music, a cup of green tea to unwind after a long day.
