Epsom salts have commonly been associated with stress relief, muscle relief, soothing of irritating skin conditions, such as psoriasis, as well as simple emotional improvement.

During a long soak in the tub, individuals can absorb both magnesium and sufate minerals found in Epsom salts through their skin. At this point, any one of several possible health benefits may occur. 
 

As magnesium is absorbed through the skin, it helps trigger the release of serotonin, a chemical compound in the brain that has been directly linked to happiness and positive feelings.

For those interested in incorporating Epsom salts into their daily bathing routine, the process is simple: experts recommend that individuals add two cups of Epsom salt to a warm bath and soak for, at minimum, 12 minutes. The longer the bath, of course, the more effective an Epsom salt regimen will become!

Individuals who can’t find time for a relaxing bath during their hectic daily routine can also create an Epsom paste with the water from their shower and apply this mixture as they would a standard body scrub. The wonderful world of Epsom salts holds a number of exciting possibilities for anyone! 

Just a few benefits of bathing with Epsom Salts:

- Eases strain and relaxes tired, stiff or aching muscles

- Relieves pain and muscle cramps

- Promotes sleep and stress reduction

- Soothes your nervous and digestive systems

- Helps to eliminate toxins from your body

 
The most effective way to get the many benefits of Epsom Salts is to dissolve the crystals in a soothing hot bath, then lie back and relax. For optimum results, soak in a water temperature of 36-40°C for 15-20 minutes, to allow the magnesium sulphate to be absorbed and relax your body.
 
Hope you take some time out of your busy schedule and relax your mind, body and spirit.
