Soap Lake is what is known as a soft mineral lake because its' most abundant mineral is washing soda, rather than the calcium salts which are the main mineral in hard water.
Why does Soap Lake water heal? The reasons are quite simple. The minerals in the water make it very alkaline. Bacteria and viruses must live within their own range of acid-base environment to survive.
Bactericides all work to change the environment such as alkalinity, acidity, hot and cold. Most bactericides have the drawback of also harming their host, in this case, the person it is acting upon. Soap Lake water is perfect because in most cases, it does not harm the host. It also sets up an abnormal environment that kills many bacteria and viruses.
No tissue can heal without mineralization. One can examine any scar tissue under a microscope and find that there are massive amounts of minerals left after the healing has taken place.
Soap Lake water definitely opens capillary or surface and extremity circulation. Over the years this has been proven in cases of Buergers and Raynauds disease, which are extremity problems.
To keep the alkalinity and minerals in the afflicted area long enough for results to be obtained, some people use the mud from the lake bottom. This will vary with individual needs and time required.
Mud Baths: Apply mud over the area to be treated and lay in the sun to dry. The mud absorbs moisture, oils, and toxins from the skin area. After the mud dries, rinse off with fresh water if you will be sunbathing. The combination of minerals and ultra-violet rays causes rapid tanning and may cause you to burn more quickly.
Soap Lake water used in conjunction with the sun has been known to alleviate the symptoms of psoriasis. Use caution not to sunburn.
Over-usage of Soap Lake water can cause the skin to dry out and may cause rashes. Use oil or lotion to rebuild the natural oils of the skin.
Soap Lake water is a wonderful liquid and its unique mineral composition can benefit mankind greatly, but it is not a cure-all. It should be used with common sense and in certain cases, with the advice of a medical doctor who knows about Soap Lake water, its contents, and its healing purposes.
