Do you wake up stiff and sore every day, the kind of achiness that knocks you out for days? Experience restless legs at night after working out?

Chances are, your body is trying to tell you that it is running on empty and needs replenishment of magnesium.

I have a natural pain relief solution for you called magnesium oil that will relieve muscle tension, help you sleep better at night, and boost your mood.

In this article, I will share with you the best natural pain relief and anti-inflammatory supplement you add to your daily routine for managing chronic pain.

Magnesium Deficiency Symptoms

With the depletion of minerals like magnesium and nitrogen from the soil due to mass farming production, the use of pesticides, and how far produce has to travel, the fruits and vegetables we eat every day have less nutritional value resulting in the poor mineral intake of magnesium and poor soils.

If you grow your own fruits and vegetables, using Epsom salts as fertilizer can produce higher yields.

The majority of us have low magnesium levels. Here are 10 signs of magnesium deficiency:

• fatigue

• headaches/migraines

• muscle pain (feeling of pins and needles)

• foot cramps, tingling, and numbness

• dizziness/vertigo

• irregular heartbeat

• restless legs

• sleep problems/insomnia

• changes in mood (becoming easily agitated)

• constipation/irritable bowel syndrome

Magnesium is an important mineral for the human body. The nutrient plays a role in bone health and preventing osteoporosis in women by regulating calcium and vitamin D levels, maintaining a healthy immune system and muscles, preventing, reducing, and ridding of migraine headaches, and lowering anxiety levels.

Transdermal Magnesium Absorption

The best way to absorb magnesium is through the skin. Soaking your feet and body in an Epsom salt aka magnesium sulfate bath for 20 minutes is a quick way to increase your magnesium levels.

Magnesium sulfate removes toxins from the body, relaxes sore muscles and reduces pain. Epsom salt foot soaks assists in helping to relieve swelling and pain from plantar fasciitis and reduce foot odor.

Another option for quick absorption of magnesium through the skin is making your own homemade magnesium oil.

The process is quick and easy and involves two ingredients: filtered water and magnesium flakes.

Homemade Magnesium Oil Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 cup filtered water
• 1 cup magnesium sulfate or magnesium flakes

Directions

Boil one cup of water. Add one cup of magnesium flakes or Epsom salts to a glass bowl. Pour the water into the bowl and stir until dissolved. Allow to cool. Pour the cooled mixture into a glass spray bottle. The remaining mixture can be stored in a mason jar.

Some magnesium oil users like to use magnesium flakes complaining Epsom salts are too drying for the skin. I haven’t experienced issues with my skin drying out.

I use Epsom salts to do daily soaks and make a body scrub. Another option for transdermal magnesium absorption is to make homemade magnesium lotion.

I like this option when I am short on time and don’t feel like sitting in a warm bath for 20-minutes every day on a hot day.

Instead, I do magnesium oil spot treatments, focusing on specific areas of the body from muscle overuse like my lower back, knees, ankles, neck, hands, and wrists.

When spraying areas of the body, make sure you put a towel underneath you. As the mixture dries, the magnesium crystalizes can leave a salty mess.

I leave the magnesium oil on for 20-minutes and wipe off with a wet washcloth with no soap.

Before going to bed, I moisturize with body lotion or cream (depending on the time of year) to mix with the magnesium residue leftover on the skin.

Over time, you may notice daily Epsom salt bath and foot soaks turn into weekly treatments from the natural pain relief results from your nightly routine of magnesium oil spot treatments.

Magnesium Oil Benefits

I wake up with fewer aches and pains. Lately, I have been having issues with chronic headaches indicating to me that my neck was too tight. I wake up every day with a slight headache.

Along with the headaches, my hands and wrists have been taking a beating from too much work on the keyboard and data entry.

As I have used the natural pain relief mixture every night, I have noticed my grip strength has improved and I have experienced fewer headaches.

Not sure if this is due to spraying my neck or adding a little magnesium oil to my night serum before I go to bed or both.

Perhaps the higher concentration of magnesium in a spray compared to an Epsom salt bath and foot soak might be the reason for expedited pain relief.

What I do know is my skin looks amazing in the morning, refreshed, and feels silky smooth.

Liquid Magnesium with Trace Minerals

If you have teeth sensitivities, adding liquid magnesium with trace minerals to your water or lemonade can help remineralize your teeth, increase saliva production, and help with building back up strong and healthy teeth.

I like to add lemon crystals to my water before adding 12 drops of magnesium liquid. Who doesn’t want to good oral health?

Always Consult a Health Professional

If you are taking prescription medication or antibiotics, supplementing magnesium may interact with them causing low blood pressure.

Consult your doctor before taking any supplements or discontinuing any prescribed medication.
