Magnesium Magic: Soothe Your Body & Soul Naturally
By Anna Rademaker, IBCLC, LMT | Sacred Mama Denver
Relieve stress, ease sore muscles, and nurture your nervous system—naturally.
Let’s be real—whether you’re growing a baby, chasing a toddler, getting back to the gym, or just carrying the weight of daily life, your body is doing a lot. Sore muscles, tight shoulders, and restless legs? Magnesium might just be the mineral your body’s been craving.
Why Magnesium?
Magnesium is essential for muscle relaxation, nerve function, and stress regulation. Unfortunately, many of us are low on this vital mineral—especially during pregnancy, postpartum recovery, or times of physical or emotional stress. Supplementing topically (through the skin) allows the body to absorb what it needs without overwhelming the digestive system.
Magnesium Oil
Magnesium oil is actually a high-concentration brine—not a true oil—but it delivers quick, powerful relief.
Best for: Direct muscle relief, nighttime leg cramps (hello, pregnancy!), and stress support.
How to use: Spray directly on skin (legs, belly, shoulders, feet) and rub in. Some tingling is normal if levels are low—dilute with a carrier oil if needed.
Great for:
Mamas-to-be with calf cramps
Athletes with tight quads or sore backs
Anyone who needs to decompress before bed
Magnesium Lotion
Magnesium lotion offers a gentler application, infused with nourishing oils and butters for added hydration.
Best for: Full-body use, bedtime wind-down, and anyone with sensitive skin.
How to use: Massage into feet, legs, shoulders, or anywhere tension lives.
Great for:
New parents recovering from long days (and nights!)
Dry skin sufferers
Anyone needing a calming nighttime ritual
Epsom Salt Soak
Epsom salts are rich in magnesium sulfate, perfect for a full-body reset. Soaking is a beautiful way to relax sore muscles, calm the nervous system, and support detoxification.
Best for: Deep muscle relief, mental stress, and overall relaxation.
How to use: Add 1–2 cups to a warm bath. Soak for at least 20 minutes. Add a few drops of lavender essential oil for extra zen.
Great for:
Postpartum healing
Sore feet after standing all day
Anyone easing back into movement or dealing with general aches & pains
