The First Beauty Spa

The first beauty spa may have been the perfume factory owned by Cleopatra at En Gedi, by the Dead Sea. Individuals were apparently offered health and beauty treatments, since the ruins of the factory show seats in what are believed to have been waiting and treatment rooms. Fragrant herbs were blended into specially prepared olive oil. Unfortunately, the book in which Cleopatra recorded recipes for her body oils, Cleopatra Gynaeciarum Libri, is long lost. We know of it only through its mention in Roman texts.

Benefits of Dead Sea Salt

  • Magnesium is important for both combating stress and fluid retention, slowing skin aging and calming the nervous system.
  • Calcium is effective at preventing water retention, increasing circulation and strengthening bones and nails.
  • Potassium energizes the body, helps to balance skin moisture and is a crucial mineral to replenish.
  • Bromides act to ease muscle stiffness and relax muscles.
  • Sodium is important for the lymphatic fluid balance (this in turn is important for immune system function)
  • soaking in high quality sea salt could replenish the minerals which are critical to our skin metabolism
