Directions

Dissolve up to 1 kg of Epsom salt in a warm bath and soak for at least 20 minutes. Great after high-impact sports or repetitive sports where strains can occur.

Sore muscles

• Make compresses by soaking a cotton washcloth in cold water that has been mixed with Epsom salt (2 tablespoons per cup), then apply to the skin.

• Create a paste to apply to the skin by adding a teaspoon of Epsom salt to about a cup of hot water until it dissolves, then chill the solution in the fridge for 20 minutes. Note: Clean the skin and pat dry before applying the paste.

• Take an Epsom salt bath, by adding 2 cups of Epsom salt to the water in a standard-sized bathtub and soaking for at least 15-20 minutes. The salt dissolves quicker if you pour it under running water.

Soaking

• Epsom salt is a popular remedy for easing muscle pain and fading bruises.
• Add 2 cups (approx 250–500g) of bath salt to warm water in a standard-sized bathtub (increase the amount if you have a larger bath).
• Bathe 2–3 times weekly, soaking for at least 15–20 minutes.

Foot bath

• Soothe your aching feet with a bath salt balm. Create an Epsom salt bath by pouring 1 cup (100–250g) into a tub, bowl or foot spa of warm water.

Pedicure

• Mix 1/2 cup of Epsom salt with warm, soapy water.
• Soak feet to soften skin.
• Remove polish, cut and file nails and calluses.
• Soak feet in an Epsom salt bath for 5 minutes.

Spa Treatment

• After showering, massage handfuls of Epsom salt over wet skin to exfoliate the body.

Exfoliation

• For exfoliation, mix 2 cups (250–500g) of Epsom salt with 1/4 cup of petroleum jelly and a few drops of lavender essential oil. Use the mixture to gently scrub away dry skin patches.

Facial

• Mix 1/2 tsp of Epsom salt into cleansing cream for deep-pore cleansing. Massage onto skin, rinse with cool water and pat dry.
