Q: Why Magnesium Chloride?

A: There are many types of Magnesium out there, but not all are created equal.

We love Magnesium Chloride (magnesium flakes) as they are highly soluble in water making them easily absorbed and utilized by the body.

Magnesium Chloride has the ability to increase magnesium levels in the body when absorbed through the skin. 

Soaking in Magnesium Chloride has a long list of therapeutic benefits including helping to manage cramps, migraines, lower stress, help with sleep, balance hormones naturally, lower blood pressure, and the list goes on. 

Pure + Natural, full of amazing health benefits for your next Hide + Soak.

Q: What is the difference between Magnesium Chloride and Epsom Salts?

Good question, and one we get asked alot! 

While both compounds contain a similar level of elemental magnesium, they are in different forms. Epsom Salts is Magnesium Sulfate, while Magnesium Flakes are Magnesium Chloride.

While they both have proven benefits, a key difference between the two is the rate of absorbtion in the body.

Magnesium Chloride is wholly soluable which allows the compounds to break their bonds and travel into the pores through the dermal layers and into the bloodstream. 

This simply means that Magnesium Chloride is more easily absorbed and utilized by the body then Epsom Salts.

Epsom Salts do, however have their own benefits, including muscle relaxation and helping to reduce inflammation. They can also aid in detoxifying the body by drawing out toxins through the skins pores.

Some FAQ relating to our Magnesium Oil Spray:

Q: How often should I use the Magnesium Oil Spray?
A: You can use the Magnesium Oil Spray daily. Start with 2-3 sprays per area and gradually increase as your body adjusts. For best results, apply in the morning for an energy boost or in the evening to aid relaxation and sleep.

Q: Can I use Magnesium Oil Spray on sensitive skin?
A: Yes, but we recommend starting slow, especially for sensitive skin. You can apply it to the soles of your feet first, where the skin is less sensitive. If needed, dilute the spray with water before applying it to other areas.

Q: Is Magnesium Oil Spray safe for children?
A: Yes, our Magnesium Oil Spray is suitable for the whole family, including children. For kids, it’s best to dilute the spray further with water and apply to areas like the feet or legs. Always start with a small amount to gauge their tolerance. Once you've been using for a week or so and their magnesium levels have increased, the itch and tingle should subside.

Q: How long does it take to feel the effects of the spray?
A: Many people feel relief within minutes of applying the spray, especially for muscle aches and cramps. However, it can take a few days to a week of regular use to notice more substantial benefits, like improved sleep and energy levels.

Q: Why does the magnesium spray sometimes tingle or itch when I apply it?
A: A tingling or itching sensation can occur, especially if you’re new to using magnesium oil. This is usually temporary and may lessen as your skin and body adjust and your cellular levels of magnesium increase. You can dilute the spray with water to reduce this sensation. If it persists, try applying to a different area of the body.

Q: Can I use the Magnesium Oil Spray during pregnancy?
A: Magnesium is an essential mineral, and many women find it beneficial during pregnancy for easing muscle cramps and improving sleep. However, we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before using it during pregnancy.

Q: How should I store the Magnesium Oil Spray?
A: It is best to store your Magnesium Oil Spray in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. This will help maintain its potency and shelf life. We have packaged our Magnesium Oil Spray in a light proof bottle to maintain its healing properties and so that you can take it with you wherever you go. We also use a high quality spray nozzle to avoid the minerals clogging up the sprayer. If this does occur, simple run under warm water to clear. 

Q: Will the Magnesium Oil Spray leave a residue on my skin?
A: The spray is fast-absorbing and typically doesn’t leave a residue. However, if you notice any residue, you can wipe it off after 20 minutes or rinse the area with water.

Q: Can I apply the Magnesium Oil Spray after a shower?
A: Yes, applying the spray after a warm bath or shower is an excellent way to maximize absorption. Your pores are more open after a shower, allowing for better penetration of the magnesium.
