If you are not aware, we have sessions at the Pittsburgh Center for Complementary Health and Healing that offer a 15 minute foot soak prior to whatever session you have chosen for your visit.  This foot soak can also be added to any session of your choice if it is not already included.  You can unwind from a busy day with a heated shoulder wrap and sip on some hot tea while your tired, achy feet soak in a warm bowl of water combined with dead sea salts and aromatherapy.  It is an amazing space of time for grounding yourself and preparing your body and mind for an amazing massage or energy session that follows.  You may be wondering how a "dead sea salt" bath may benefit you.  Here are some interesting facts about the salts that may tempt you to add the soak to your next session. It can be so simple, to be feel so good

• Dead sea salts come from the Dead Sea.  It is a salt lake bordering Jordan to the east and Israel and Palestine to the west.
• The Dead Sea is 8.6 times saltier than the ocean.
• The salts are rich in magnesium, sodium, potassium, calcium, and bromide. 
• When you soak with the salts , your body will absorb the minerals that your body may be lacking.
• This absorption can help stimulate blood circulation. 
• Some other benefits of soaking in the dead sea salts are that it can be helpful in improving skin hydration and reducing inflammation.
• It helps reduce wrinkling of the skin.
• The high concentration of bromide and magnesium can relieve allergic reactions by cleansing and detoxifying.
• It can also manage and improve arthritis, dry skin, eczema, and psoriasis.
