Epsom salt baths?

[Mikkia]

My SIL says the best bath for overworked muscles is epsom salt baths. She makes up her own bath salts with epsom salts, lavender extract and almond oil. She also uses it as a body scrub. Has anyone tried this?

When I was a kid and rode horses over the summer I would get very sore. My grandmother always put me in a warm bath with epsom salt to ease the muscle pain.

I buy it in bulk!:7 Good stuff, I shower in the AM and soak in the PM with my epsom salts! I actually prefer sugar scrubs for my body,because they do not sting freshly shaved areas

Take granulated white or brown sugar, add some olive oil and a few drops of essential oils for fragrance and/or other purposes, mix together and store in container in shower, use as needed to soften dry skin:7

The Magnesium in the epsom salt is excellent for sore muscles and bruises. I think it helps with the inflamation.

Could I use this in my spa footbath machine? I would love to try it!


Thanks!
