Magnesium Flakes dissolved in warm water provide the user with a medicinal bath of cell restoring magnesium chloride. Magnesium Flakes are also highly effective for healing skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, and dermatitis. Soaking in magnesium salts has been shown to markedly improve skin hydration, speed wound healing, enhance skin barrier function, and decrease inflammation. One cup contains approximately 15g of elemental magnesium. Ideal for children and other sensitive individuals

Main Therapeutic Uses of Magnesium Chloride
For the Skin: Sprayed on the sun-damaged skin regularly, the skin will begin to rejuvenate from the inside out and after a few months it will be significantly restored. Helps with wrinkles as well as hair health and growth.
Dental: As a mouthwash sprayed into the mouth it is excellent for the gums and pushes the mouths ph up. Strengthens teeth and is excellent for gingivitis. It is magnesium, not calcium, which helps form hard tooth enamel resistant to decay.
General Tonic: Magnesium Chloride is a strong tonic boosting all aspects of cell physiology and energy production. Magnesium is essential for life as it participates in over 325 enzyme reactions. Expect more energy, strength and endurance and even increased sexual energy.
Sports: Magnesium is perhaps the single most important mineral to sports nutrition. Over 70% of the U.S. population is magnesium deficient. This is true especially of athletes. During vigorous exercise, people loose through their sweat critical minerals, the most important being magnesium. Adequate magnesium level will help your body against fatigue, heat exhaustion, blood sugar control and metabolism.
Pain Relief: Transdermal magnesium chloride treatments are essential in the treatment of sport injuries and the aches and pains of sore muscles.
Natural Immune System Booster: Dr. A. Neveu observed that magnesium chloride has no direct effect on bacteria (i.e. it is not an antibiotic). Thus he thought that its action was a specific, immune-enhancing, so it could be useful against viral diseases.
Memory and Cognitive Function: Magnesium deficit may lead to decreased memory and learning ability, while an abundance of magnesium may improve cognitive function in children and the elderly.
Magnesium Chloride can be applied transdermally using the following methods:
• Compresses - very effective and economical method. Can be used for localised aches/pains, arthritis, wounds
• Baths - effective, but less economical, than a compress. Works on the whole body
• Sprays - very effective and economical way of getting required doses of magnesium and maintain healthy skin condition
• Underarm deodorant (sprayed or applied otherwise) - removes unpleasant ordours and delivers magnesium through the skin.
• Body/face wash - similar to sprays
• Massage medium - although Magnesium Oil is not actually an oil, it has an oily consistency, and is a very effective way to deal with muscle aches/pains
• Mouth wash, gargle - diluted. Can be used to deal with infections and halitosis.
• Foot baths effective and safe, especially suitable for children. Excellent for tired legs, muscle cramps, as well as a way to deliver magnesium to the body
• As part of clay and mud packs - body wraps, compresses, masks, poultices). Excellent for the skin and a great way to bring Magnesium to the body
• Low concentrations can be used for nose washes, sitz baths/ vaginal douches - to deal with infections.
Some people may find that pure magnesium oil may irritate their skin. If this happens, make a pause in the treatments until the irritation goes away and try diluted solutions.
Bath
Soak the whole body or just the feet in bath water for 20-30 minutes, at a temperature of about 10
8 degrees The most effective protocol for this therapy is to begin with a daily body or foot bath every day for the first 7 days, (starting at lighter concentrations and building up) then continue with a maintenance program of 2-3 times a week for 6-8 weeks or longer. Sensitive care must be taken especially with children as to dose levels, water temperature and magnesium concentrations. Muscle spasms might occur on rare occasions if one forgets to get out of the tub so it is necessary to supervise children and the length of time they remain soaking in magnesium chloride. All strong reactions like redness in local areas to diarrhoea or even muscle spasms are indications to reduce concentration.
Body spray/wash
Spraying Magnesium Chloride solution on the body or using it as a wash/rinse is a very effective and economical way of transdermal application of this mineral. It delivers magnesium for internal body processes and is an excellent remedy for various skin conditions, as well as to prevent magnesium deficiency and a variety of conditions associated with it.
For people with muscle injuries concentrated magnesium baths or several applications of the solution a day should be used. Dilution rate - 1-2 tbsp per 200ml of water.
Foot bath
Add 100g of magnesium flakes to 5-6 litres of warm water for a pleasant and relaxing foot bath. Good and economical way to get regular doses of magnesium into your body.
Vaginal douche/ sitz bath
Dilute 1 tbsp of magnesium bath flake in a glass (200ml) of warm water. Can be used as a vaginal douche for minor infections. Same dilution but a larger amount can be used in a sitz bath.
Nose spray/ gargle/ mouth wash
Use the same dilution as for a vaginal douche. Gargle, spray/ rinse mouth/ throat to fight infection, strengthen teeth and revitalize the gums.
Deodorant
A few sprays of a concentrated solution (1 tbsp per 100ml of water) under each armpit works both as an effective deodorant and to transport magnesium into the body systems through the lymphatic nodes positioned in the armpits. It can also be applied by hand. Spray/wash feet with it to achieve the same effect.
Massage Medium Magnesium Chloride is especially effective when used as a massage medium. It has an oily consistency which makes it very suitable for massage. Massage speeds up circulation, opens up pores and raises the skin temperature by attracting blood to the area. This improves the absorption by the body of Magnesium and other minerals contained in the product. skin type.
Mask body wrap/ compress / poultice
Add 5% magnesium chloride solution to clay and mud packs, body wraps, compresses and poultices. Such applications ensure a more prolonged action and therefore stronger effect on the body due to the fact that they stay on the body much longer than any other applications and in a more concentrated form. Also, muds and clays have a thermal effect on the body raising the skin temperature under the application. This is especially useful in the treatment of arthritis, muscle aches and pains, musculo-skeletal disorders, as well as any other conditions associated with magnesium deficiency.
Why is it effective?
The effectiveness of transdermal applications of Magnesium Chloride is explained by the skin's ability to absorb substances which are then transported by the circulatory system around the body. Transdermal applications are widely used in the orthodox medicine in the form of patches for a variety of medications where continuous intake of medical substances is required (e.g. HRT, cigarette patches,etc.).Transdermal effect is also used in holistic therapies (e.g. Aromatherapy).
How to Make Magnesium Oil • Determine how much oil you want to make. The International Medical Veritas Association recommends a solution of 30-35% magnesium flakes; a ratio of 1:3, which is half a cup of flakes to 1 cup of warm (preferably distilled) water. • Steadily pour your magnesium chloride crystals into the water until you have reached the desired quantity.
• Mix the solution until all of the crystals have dissolved into the water. It should feel oily and smooth, with no grit. Store in a glass container.
• If the solution stings too much for comfort when rubbed on, then add more water. • If you want it stronger then make it with a ratio of 1:1.
