Treat your body with Salve’s herbal infused Super Soft Scrub. This body scrub sloughs off dead skin, exfoliates and moisturizes, leaving you with silky, super soft skin.
Salve’s Super Soft Scrub contains organic virgin coconut oil with a fresh, just-cracked coconut smell. Virgin coconut oil is cold-pressed, pure, natural and unrefined. It is extracted from freshly harvested coconuts using a "wet milling" process that uses neither chemicals nor high heat. The result is a clear coconut oil that retains its natural antioxidant properties. You’ll like that it is easily absorbed into the skin without leaving an oily residue.
We’ve added a subtle variety of natural, essential oils to create a relaxing fragrance that will make you feel as though you were lounging in a spa. Ylang ylang is used to calm any nervousness, lavender is used to relax the central nervous system, rose is used to stimulate the brain and give you an uplifting sensation.
Use alone or in one of Salve's soothing soaks!
Research Studies: Studies have been conducted on the health benefits of bathing in Dead Sea salts. Dr. I. Machtey conducted a study on 103 patients suffering from osteoarthritis and tendinitis. Patients were either treated with baths of 7.5%, 2% or 0.5% Dead Sea salt concentration. Improvement was found after as little as one week of treatment for those treated with 7.5% or 2% salt baths. By the study's end, 80% of the patients reported less pain; 70% experienced improved mobility and 60% were able to decrease their use of analgesics.
Dr. J. Arndt studied the effect of Dead Sea salt baths on psoriasis. Fifty patients were treated for 3-4 weeks, taking 3-4 baths each week. In as little as one week, many patients treated with a 10% salt concentration in their baths experienced marked improvement. This improvement includes relief from itching, sleep disturbances, and skin scaling.
