Even if the water isn't ideal an Epsom Salts bath is very beneficial. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 If you have it on hand you can also remove some of the chlorine by adding ascorbic acid to the water.

No, very hot water doesn't help and it can cause your body to become stressed. Just make it quite warm, but not hot. > > Anyway the last few days i have been filling tub 70% with pretty hot > water and two cups of epsom salt, and i seem to be fine that way. > > After i get out i sweat alot which is great, but with that and the > constant 30deg temps here, and no air conditioning inside im just > thirsty and i have to drink water.

Things that eliminate, or remove, minerals are herbs, teas, caffeine, distilled or reverse osmosis water, green drinks, too many leafy greens. > > Also can i have two epsom salt baths per day or is that overdoing it.

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Hello Bee, Ok i will just continue with one bath per day. Awesome that i can drink a little more water cause it's so hot here , plus the sweating from the bath it was dehydrating me as well, but i was only consuming my six sea salt drinks per day. What a relief. Thanks..... Caine..... > > +++Hi Caine. No, very hot water doesn't help and it can cause your body to become stressed.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Hello everyone Does anyone know why I'm dizzy light headed during epsom bath. Regards Alida Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 How much are you using? You may need to decrease the amount. It could also be an allergic reaction, so you might want to take a break from it and try again with a much smaller dose just to be safe. http://www.ehow.com/facts_5760706_allergic-reaction-epsom-salt.html Karla Karla > > Hello everyone > > Does anyone know why I'm dizzy light headed during epsom bath. > > > Regards Alida > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Overly hot baths can also make you dizzy. Drinking plenty of water before a plain, warm bath helps me with dizziness. You could also reduce/stop using epsom salts for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
