Terrapin Therapeutics Dead Sea Mineral Salts Frequently Asked Questions:

  • What if I do not take baths?

You can use a few tablespoons of the Dead Sea Mineral Salts in a pan of warm water for a foot soak.

  • What if I have a particular area on arms or legs that I want to treat?

You can use a few tablespoons of the Dead Sea Mineral Salts in a mug of warm water and dip a washcloth in it to use as a compress on the area.

  • How do the Dead Sea Mineral Salts work?

When you submerge in warm water, it opens your pores and brings blood to the surface of your skin. (That is why you look pinkish when you get out of a hot shower or bath.) This allows your skin to absorb minerals and rid itself of toxins.

  • What are Dead Sea Mineral Salts?

Dead Sea Salt contains 21 minerals including magnesium, calcium, sulfur, bromide, iodine, sodium, zinc, and potassium.These essential minerals naturally occur in our bodies but must be replenished, as they are lost throughout the day. Terrapin Therapeutics uses salt that is harvested from the southern Dead Sea in Israel, where the mineral content is at its highest.

  • What if I do not like strong scents?

The Dead Sea Mineral Salts dissolve in the water and none of the scents are strong once diluted in the bath.

  • How do the essential oils work?

Dead Sea Mineral Salts are very dry and absorb essential oils with ease, which enables them to be released into warm bath water as they dissolve

  • What is the difference between Kristen’s blends of scented Dead Sea Mineral Salts?

The scents are for your enjoyment. Lavender is relaxing but a strong scent, so is the mint. Eucalyptus is also strong. You might go with citrus if you don't want unscented. They will all relax and sooth muscles. You may just want to smell them then decide which you’d like to use.

Some oils have specific properties. For example, Chamomile and Lavender are relaxing; Juniper Berry reduces muscle tension and soreness; Citrus is mellow;Lemongrass is an essential oil with research published, i.e. in the May 2009 Journal of Chemico-Biological Interactions concluded "Our results indicate that the oil has a promising anti-cancer activity and causes loss in tumor cell viability by activating the apoptotic process as identified by electron microscopy."
