Magnesium Hot Spa

1. Restore your body’s magnesium levels

Magnesium is the second most abundant element in the body, and it is responsible for over 300 enzymes and their reactions within our bodies. Magnesium is crucial for many processes some of which include adenosine triphosphate (ATP) metabolism, DNA and RNA synthesis, and protein synthesis.

2. Restore muscle function

Magnesium deficiency is usually associated with muscle aches and cramps. This is because magnesium is essential to regulate muscle movement, as well as muscle relaxation. It also plays an important role in blood pressure, nerve transmission, and regulates energy production.

3. Replenish electrolytes

During exercise, we sweat out many electrolytes, including magnesium. Replenishing our magnesium stores post-exercise helps the muscles relax and recover, and counteracts the role that calcium plays in contracting the muscles. Chloride (such as in magnesium chloride flakes) is needed to help to balance the electrolyte levels in the body. Electrolytes in the nerves and muscles help fluid to travel in and out of the body’s cells, keeping us hydrated and healthy.

4. Reduce bodily stress and fatigue

It’s well known that magnesium is a muscle relaxant. As such, this can help to alleviate muscle aches, stress headaches, and to decrease tension. Magnesium deficiency is commonly found among adults, and this deficit is closely linked with increased stress and anxiety.

5. Reduce inflammation

A deficiency in magnesium can lead to chronic inflammation and subsequent conditions.

 

Although much is still unknown about transdermal magnesium absorption, some studies suggest that transdermal magnesium may play an important role in treating symptoms of sub-optimal magnesium status.
