You can try soaking in epsom salts the night before and see if you notice any improvement. If so, a topical cream applied to your spasming feet might help better than oral:

Magnesium Sulfate Cream from Kirkman

Not all oral mag gets to all body parts equally. Sometimes a topical form works more efficiently.

yes! I agree that is worthwhile to experiment with diff forms and brands of magnesium..I also like magnesium threonate and of course citrate . Am also trying ionic magnesium from "metabolics".

I have found relief from foot drop in a form of tai chi called arrow and bow walking.....very slowly.

Also I reccomend foot reflexology treatment and footwear that is minimalist wiith extremely flexible and flat soles with absolutely no rise at the heel - I oftenn wear the vibram five finger shoes that articulate the toes...these shoes have made all the difference and I have long felt that our feet are a major site of focus for location of "blockage" .

Kind regards
