Mineral Springs
What is it that gives the mineral springs their therapeutic powers? At Sycamore Springs, the primary ingredient is sulfur. It’s often referred to as “Nature’s Beauty Mineral”. This is due to the fact that for your body to produce collagen, considerable quantities of sulfur are required. Magnesium is another mineral that helps to keep skin looking young and firm.
