Ancient Minerals Magnesium Bath Flakes - Bathing Alternative to Epsom Salt - Soak in Natural Salts - High-Absorption Efficiency for Relaxation, Wellness & Muscle Relief - 8 lbs

so relaxing. I add 2 to 3 cups of these flakes (depending on amount of relief needed) plus 1 tablespoon of water soluble vitamin C powder (to de-chlorinate the water) to a med-warm full bath, then I watch a 30 minute video while lightly running a wash cloth over all of my skin to help with absorption and exfoliation. Heals all that ails, body and mind. I bought a bath pillow to make the experience that much more comfortable. Another fibromyalgia sufferer here to testify mag chloride is superior to Epsom salts at reducing muscle pain and fatigue, aiding restful sleep, and calming an over-active mind.

These dissolve quickly and do a great job at soothing/relaxing sore muscles. Ill put a scoop or two in a hot bath and soak and it helps me feel better than soaking in just plain water. Its nice that theyre flakes so they dissolve quicker than a circle/pellet would. They store easily under the bathroom sink and the bag they come in seems to be of good quality/I dont have to worry about them spilling or getting wet from anything else that may get placed under the sink. Overall I recommend them.

Soothing. Expensive.

This has helped me so much with restless leg syndrome and achey legs. Its been life changing since I found this product.

I’ve read that this item specifically is really good. Your body absorbs the magnesium chloride much better than it does magnesium sulfate (regular epsom salt). So far I’ve done 2 soaks and I think I’m noticing results after the first bath! I’ve had a sinus infection for a solid week now, with no signs of getting better. 100% shut down, can’t breathe torture. After reading this helps detox toxins, I purchased and immediately soaked in the tub upon its arrival. The very next day, everything was loosening up, and I was actually able to blow my nose and start getting the crud out! By the end of the night! 24 hours after my first chloride soak, I was breathing again! Coincidence? Miracle salt? Could be too early to tell… but I really like it so far! I have really bad arthritis in my knees, and it seemed to help my knee pain! I will purchase again! Because this is more spendy than regular epsom salt, I ended up doing a 2:2 ratio. I did 2 cups of the magnesium sulfate (epsom salt) and then 2 cups of the Ancient Minerals magnesium Chloride. Then soaked for 20 mins. Stay away from all the epsoms salts with fragrances! It’s all toxic garbage!!! Get the plain salts!!

Ive used magnesium chloride flakes for a long time. Started about eight years ago when I made natural hair products for my curly hair. For some reason, sodium chloride is drying, but magnesium chloride not as much. (People with curly hair use salts to get more curl or that day at the beach look.) Started doing Pilates about eighteen months ago. Had issues with the ball of my left foot cramping. Did some research and found out that most of us are deficient in magnesium. While I take some orally in my vitamin supplements, I found out that dermal absorption is a better way to go with magnesium. The magnesium of choice is magnesium chloride. A few months later, I got into aromatherapy. Actually took a Butters & Balms course from a reputable aromatherapy school. Since some people have issues with itching from straight magnesium oil (magnesium chloride flakes with water) sprayed on skin, I started making a magnesium body butter that I found online. Have a lot of people in the studio using magnesium oil at this point. Since we dont have a bath tub anymore, when I need to up my dose of magnesium, I do foot soaks--half magnesium chloride flakes/half Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate.) Usually add some essential oils (with a little carrier oil) to help with skin issues. When purchasing the magnesium chloride flakes, you need to be careful to buy the cosmetic grade. I noticed that some magnesium chloride flakes were being sold as snow melt. This was a personal purchase, I paid full price.

I really underestimated the power of these bath flakes. I cant even believe I just typed that sentence.. lol I have joint pain, muscle aches from past sports injuries and just overall aging. I will sometimes soak in Epsom salts and head to the gym because it really helps limber me up and get the blood flowing. WELL.... I used these bath flakes and as soon as I got out of the tub I felt like I had taken a VALIUM and that is no exaggeration. I was BEYOND relaxed and pretty much a pile of mush for several hours afterwards. I had stuff to do so it kinda ruined that part of my day, but at the same time it wasnt anything important. I should have just tried this at night and not in the morning. There is NO WAY I would use the WHOLE BAG. I used about a cup, filled the tub with hot water, relaxed for 20 minutes and was in a very relaxed state the rest of the day. I highly recommend these but at the same time, please use with caution. Magnesium (in all forms) can be very strong and have very significant effects on your body. I will continue to use these flakes but will DEFINITELY use them in the evening because of the almost sedative effects.

Switched from Epsom Salts to Magnesium flakes, fantastic bath!! Wish I switched sooner, glad to have now!

great muscle relaxing bath option to pamper yourself or as a gift for someone else.

I have autoimmune issues and sometimes can hardly move and feel like I have the flu. These baths always help. Everytime
