In this Vlog, I talk about Climatotherapy, the health properties of the Dead Sea and the surrounding area, and why it’s relevant for those looking for a treatment for Vitiligo!

Hope everything is fine!

HI Simon and all,
I recently bumped into this post; very useful- thanks.
I’d like to find out more about the treatment in Dead Sea (Jordan) – would appreciate your response on::
1. what is the effectiveness of 14 days treatment compared to 21 days?
2. How much is the cost and what does it include?
3. What is the cost for non-patient (accompanying partner), and hence the total cost for a couple staying together during 14 or 21 days?
4. what is the number of hours/day for treatment, what to do during the day when there is no treatment?
5. Any other tip or other treatment would be appreciated
Many thanks,
PTT
Hi Peter,
1. I can’t answer that question, I’ve only ever done 21 days. Plus, people’s reaction to the treatment is different per person this means it’s very hard to quantify ‘effectiveness’
2. You can find the costs on my blog from the last time I went, they may have changed since then
3. See 2.
4. It builds up over time, but eventually it will be 2 hours a days. 1 hour in the morning and 1 in the evening if I remember correctly (this is all documented on the blog and the video I did on youtube). When there is no treatment, you can do whatever you like! 🙂
