Recently I have learned about the
benefits of Magnesium supplementation. Better
sleep, decreased muscle pain, flexibility, bone/teeth strength, hydration,
relaxation and more! A few weeks ago I
began taking Magnesium Glycinate, after a recommendation from my Dr., and have already noticed a
decrease in my muscle pain! Then some
people in my fabulous online fibromyalgia support group started talking about
using Magnesium Oil Spray (which is not really oil at all). You can spray it on your skin after a shower/bath,
or anytime, directly onto sore aching muscles for relief. That sounded great. Even better, someone mentioned making your
own! I found a tutorial from cheekslave.com
and I HAD to try it!
What you will need:
1. Magnesium Chloride bath flakes
2. Filtered or distilled water
3. Spray bottle
4. Essential oils (optional)
How to make Magnesium Oil Spray:
1.
Pour 1 Cup of water into a pot
2.
Stir in 1 cup of magnesium flakes
3.
Turn the heat on low/medium
4.
Stir occasionally until flakes are dissolved
5.
Add a few drops of essential oils (optional)
6.
Cool to room temperature
7.
Pour into bottle
How to use Magnesium Oil Spray:
Spray 4-5 sprays directly on sore muscles as needed, or onto
your torso, massage in.
8 sprays of Magnesium oil equals about 100mg of Magnesium
being absorbed into your skin.
It may tingle or sting when you first spray it on, that should
stop after a minute or two. (Do not use right after you have shaved, ouch!)
You can dilute it even more if you have skin irritation.
You can also use Epsom Salt (Magnesium Sulfate) but you may
need to use less water to experience the same effects. Epsom Salt vs Magnesium Chloride
To get even more benefit, I added a few drops of an aroma
therapy oil blend I had called “release” for stress and sore muscles. I can’t tell you the brand because they are
no longer in business, but I will list the ingredients for you as inspiration
for your own creations.
cinnamon oil, cornmint oil, cinnamon oil, coconut oil,
grapefruit oil, lavandin oil, peppermint oil, rosemary oil, menthol,
camphor, and white ginger extract.

Cost:
I spent just under $10 (including shipping) on a 1.64lb bag
of Magnesium Bath Flakes. This works out
to 24.6 cents per oz. Less than 50 cents
for a 2oz bottle! And under $2 for an
8oz bottle! That’s a HUGE savings
considering Magnesium Oil Spray can run anywhere from $6 to almost $30 for an
8oz bottle depending on the brand!
I had a lot of fun making this myself and wanted to share with family and friends so I doubled the recipe and got a handful of 2oz bottles in the travel section of the drugstore so I could share. I even got an extra bottle for just water, my little helper wanted his own! 
If you have a combination of these symptoms, check
with your doctor to see if you are deficient in Magnesium and could benefit
from supplements including Magnesium Oil Spray.
Awesome blot and darling little helper :) Well done. ~Stacy Lynn
