Description

 The invention relates to meeting the needs of human life, in particular to methods of using drugs containing inorganic active ingredients in the form of chlorides of various metals.

 It is known to use natural sea salts for medicinal purposes, for example, salts of the Dead Sea. According to leading cosmetologists and specialists in the field of skin diseases, the Dead Sea is a natural wellness center. The salts and minerals collected on the coast of the Lisan Peninsula (Jordan) in the southern part of the Dead Sea have a unique composition, retain their natural properties for a long time and are the basis for the most exotic cosmetics - Dead Sea cosmetics.

 The Dead Sea is the saltiest lake in the world, the largest natural mineral spring on earth. The Jordan River and numerous streams with mineral water flow into it. The Dead Sea is located in the lowest place on the globe - 400 meters below sea level. This is a closed lake with an area of 930 square kilometers (75 km - length, 17 km - width) and a depth of 400 m with a water volume of 140 cubic kilometers. In its present shape, the Dead Sea has existed for more than 5000 years. During this time, a sedimentary layer 100 meters thick accumulated at the bottom.

 The healing properties of the Dead Sea are mentioned in the Bible. Minerals of the Dead Sea were used for cosmetic and medicinal purposes by Cleopatra and Queen of Sheba.

 Dead Sea water is a highly concentrated brine of a wide variety of salts and minerals (350-420 grams per liter), which is ten times higher than in any other body of water in the world, while the content of sodium chloride (table salt) in the Dead Sea does not exceed 12 -15% (in other seas an average of 70%).

 In the resorts of the Dead Sea, psoriasis is well treated: skin and articular forms, scleroderma, neurodermatitis, eczema, echthyosis, vitiligo, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, deforming osteochondrosis, etc. Excellent results are obtained from treatment of allergic and bronchial asthma in the Dead Sea.

 Dead Sea waters are used for balneological procedures, including in health and therapeutic baths, salt wipes and applications, rinsing and inhalation.

 The use of saline solutions relieves fatigue, nervous tension, stress, overwork, insomnia, muscle and joint pain, improves tone, stabilizes life processes, and also helps to prevent and treat many diseases.

The Dead Sea salt has the following chemical composition: NaCl 14-16%, KCl 18-22%, MgCl ₂ 25-31%, CaCl ₂ 0.5-1%, bromides 0.2-0.3%, crystallization water 26- 32%, insoluble components (iron, fluorine) 0.2% [2].

The procedures performed with salts of the Dead Sea include the following types of procedures:
Shared baths. Dissolve 100-300 g of salt in the bath and lie in it for 20-50 minutes, the water temperature is 36-38 ^o C, then rinse the body with warm water. This procedure relieves fatigue, nervous tension and stress, overwork, insomnia, headache, allergies, muscle and joint pain, functional disorders due to a lack of minerals in the body, and rheumatic diseases. Baths help to increase blood circulation and improve metabolism, deep muscle relaxation, soothe the nervous system, increase skin elasticity. Baths with Dead Sea salt are recommended for various skin diseases: acne, psoriasis, eczema, as well as arthritis, rheumatism, swelling of the limbs, chills. A course of 10-12 baths helps to normalize the water-salt balance in the body, relieves swelling, and helps to reduce excess weight. With this procedure, colds are treated (water temperature 38-42 ^o C), Baths with salt take 2-3 times a week.

 Baths for arms, legs, joints can be of a higher concentration - 300-600 g per 10 liters of water. The duration of the procedure is no more than 15 minutes 1-2 times a day. This procedure relieves pain in muscles and joints, contributes to the treatment of skin diseases.

Compresses Cotton fabric, folded several times, is impregnated with saline (100 g of salt per liter of water) and applied for 5-10 minutes to the sore spot. Cold compresses (5-10 ^o C) with bruises, bruising, open wounds, ulcers. Hot compresses (38-42 ^o C) for various skin diseases - dermatitis, neurodermatitis, eczema, psoriasis.

 Rubdown. Dissolve 100-300 g of salt in 10 liters of water and with a washcloth moistened in a salt solution, grind the body for 10-15 minutes. The effect of this procedure is similar to the effect of salt baths.

 Ingestion. A teaspoon per liter of water. 100-150 g of the solution twice a week improve intestinal motility, relieve hangover.

 Instillation. A teaspoon of salt per liter of water, 2-3 times a day, 5-6 drops in the nose, ears for colds or eyes for conjunctivitis.

Rinse, inhalation. For infectious lesions of the nasopharyngeal mucosa, rinse your mouth and throat with a salt solution (tablespoon per glass) for 20-30 seconds 5 times a day for one week. For all types of angina, rinse or inhalation with a hot (40-45 ^o C) solution.

 Douching. A tablespoon in a glass of water. The procedure is done in the morning and evening. With hemorrhoids, prostatitis, erosion. Consult a doctor.

 Brushing and whitening teeth. Grind the salt on the coffee grinder, brush your teeth with the obtained powder. This procedure removes tartar and strengthens the gums.

About 250-270 million years ago, in the center of the continent of Laurasia was the Perm Sea, connecting the two Tethys oceans in the south and the Pacific in the north. Then the Perm Sea separated from Tethys and ended up in the arid zone, as a result of which the bay periodically lost contact with the sea and dried up. The water evaporated, and the salts contained in sea water crystallized and accumulated at the bottom of the basin in the form of layers containing natural minerals - sylvin (chemical formula KCl), carnallite (MgCl ₂ • KCl • 6H ₂ O) and rock salt (NaCl) with an admixture of anhydrite (CaSO ₄ ), forming the whole Verkhnekamsk salt field. In addition to macronutrients, natural salts contain a complex of physiologically balanced microelements and organic substances found in the initial salt phase. Extracting each natural mineral separately, and then mixing them in the necessary proportions, receive therapeutic mixtures for various purposes.

 Achilles sea salt is known, which is obtained in a similar way and intended to produce physiological saline in everyday life and under clinical conditions with sedative (sedative), analgesic (analgesic) and anti-allergic effects on the body, i.e. a solution similar in composition to human plasma and water of the World Ocean [2]. It contains in its composition: sodium ions - 30%, magnesium - 2.1%, potassium - 3.4%, calcium - 0.1%, chlorine - 55%, sulfate - 0.3, bromine - 0.02, insoluble residue - 0.1%.

 The disadvantage of the obtained Achilles salt is that it cannot be used to treat many diseases, including psoriasis and other skin diseases, osteochondrosis, ankylosing spondylitis, arthritis and so on. due to the lack of magnesium in its composition.

 The invention has no analogues.

 The aim of the invention is to expand the field of application of natural salts.

 The goal is achieved by the fact that the salts extracted from potash mines are mixed in such a way as to obtain a treatment mixture that is as close as possible in composition to the Dead Sea salt.

 The method is as follows.

 A mixture of natural minerals halite and carnallite in a ratio of 1: 2.5-5 is used to treat various diseases by taking common salt baths, baths for hands, feet, joints, rubbing, ingestion, instillation, rinsing and inhalation.
