Re: Re: Raynaud's and Magnesium Oil

[Guest guest]

Putting the oil in the bath is not really effective.  Well, let me rephrase.  The amount you would need to put in the bath would be cost prohibitive.  I do epsom salt baths which is also magnesium (sulfate I think versus chloride).

 

After taking a bath or shower you can just spray the oil on and let it soak in.  It is not really an oil and soaks in quite quickly, leaving no residue issues.  I also find the mild itchy feeling abates quickly.  From what I read the itchy feeling is related to mag deficiency and as you replentish it becomes less and less of an issue.

 

I use the oil on my low back and then just spray my legs and head to bed.  I don't have Raynaud's but I might give putting some on the inside of my wrists a try anyway.  My hands and feet tend to run cold a lot.
