Guest guest Posted October 3, 2001 Report Share Posted October 3, 2001 yes 2 cup per bath is the correct amount thats what we use and we have seen improvement in s leeping and better behavior from the baths, and yes it can cause diarrea so don't drink the water and try to rinse with clear water after, also i have read and believe that perspiration is key to the sucess of the epsom salt baths the water should be very warm.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2001 Report Share Posted October 5, 2001 Hi Sharon....his seizures come on only when he has a fever. If we don't treat the fever as soon as we see he has one then the temp goes up high and quickly, causing the seizure. I've been told this is the body's way of cooling itself. I'm really hoping he will outgrown it like we've been told. Rhonda in CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 5, 2001 Report Share Posted October 5, 2001 Thanks ...I hadn't talked to a dermatologist yet regarding the eczema. But think I will not use the Epsom salts after all. I don't want to dry his skin out anymore. Rhonda in CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 Yes, I tend to itch when I have epsom salt baths as well. Not sure what that means though Charlene My son is experiencing what may be die-off, so I'm trying the epsom salt baths. I followed the instructions on the box and he soaked for a few minutes, but he itched the whole time.
