This unique body of water is situated on the Syrian-African fault, a geological phenomenon that came into being some three million years ago during a great, natural upheaval. Many ancient layers of mineral- rich earth were exposed, salt water springs erupted forming a valley and a lake 400 meters (1300 feet) below sea level - the lowest spot on earth. An evaporation process continuing for thousands of years resulted in increasing levels of minerals and salt in that lake, today known as the Dead  Sea.  
  
The composition of the Dead Sea is considered unique, containing the highest levels of magnesium, calcium and potassium, in comparison to any other body of salt water in the world, including all the oceans.  
  
Since ancient times, a multitude of people have come to the region to relax, enjoy its beauty and experience the healing, beautifying and rejuvenating powers of the Dead Sea. These visitors soak in the famous waters and coat themselves in the celebrated and revitalizing black mud.  

Medical research has determined that the unique blend of powerful minerals and salts found in the Dead Sea water and mud is very beneficial for the relief of various skin problems. As in the past, the Dead Sea continues to attract tens of thousand of visitors annually The Dead Sea is recognised as a curative area for dermatological treatments.
