Not All Sea Salts Are the Same - Dead Sea Sea Salt

Someone has recommended dead sea salt to help accelerate the healing process. Doing a web search, seems like it may have theraputic properties over normal ocean sea salt due to its higher mineral content.

So I bought 1 kg to see if it would have an effect. I applied my concentrated sprinkling of salt over my entire body as per normal. OMG - intense pain on the scratched areas. I could not keep it left on for long although it appears to have had an effect on the skin. Maybe it has a more acidic nature that a pH test would indicate.

Have just been recommended to mix it with a solution of oatmeal before I apply it to my skin. So off to the shops I go to buy oats!
