Epsom salt baths are relaxing and useful. They do make the water
very slippery...so be careful. You have to soak a while to get benefits...at least 20min or more. Do not use HOT water...use only lukewarm.

Less is absorbed in a bath, than you can provide orally.

The lotion is handy also for the neck areas, jaws area, etc. You will get more absorption from the lotion when used in the inner wrists and up the inner arm to the elbow. This is where skin is
thin and veins near the surface.

Don't overdo it...you need healthy kidneys to excrete any excess magnesium you apply or take.
