If you’ve used Gingerly Snapped’s magnesium cream, you may have noticed a slight tingling once applied. This is totally expected and actually a sign that your body is LOW in magnesium!
If this is the case, then it’s serendipitous that you’re using topical magnesium cream rather than an oral supplement because magnesium absorbs far more efficiently through the skin. But why, you may be asking, should I even care about using magnesium?
Magnesium has numerous benefits, including alleviating muscle pain and discomfort due to the fact that it’s a muscle relaxant. This makes magnesium cream an ideal part of any bedtime routine! It can be used as a message cream on sore muscles or simply apply it to your calves and legs for maximum absorption.
Magnesium also helps to regulate sleep. Applying magnesium cream, particularly to the bottom of your feet, can promote relaxation and improve the quality of your sleep!
It also has been known to reduce inflammation. With its anti-inflammatory properties, many people have found that using magnesium cream on their joints has improved their symptoms of arthritis and achy joints.
