Bishofit" can be used to soothe muscle/joint aches and pains, muscle cramps, relieve stress and its effects, to maintain good skin condition, unwind and relax, promote good sleep, general health and vitality.

Bath

"Soak the whole body or just the feet in bath water for 20-30 minutes, at a temperature of about 38-40 degrees C. The most effective protocol for this therapy is to begin with a daily body or foot bath every day for the first 7 days, (starting at lighter concentrations and building up) then continue with a maintenance program of 2-3 times a week for 6-8 weeks or longer. Sensitive care must be taken especially with children as to dose levels, water temperature and magnesium concentrations. They need only about 100ml per bath.

Spraying Magnesium Chloride on the body  or using it as a wash/rinse is a very effective and economical way of  transdermal application of this mineral. It delivers magnesium for internal body processes and is an excellent remedy for various skin conditions, as well as to prevent magnesium deficiency and a variety of conditions associated with it.

For a large adult, spraying the body with one ounce (25 ml) of  Bishofit is sufficient. A small adult or a child will require less. For people with muscle injuries concentrated magnesium baths or several alternative applications a day should be used. Footbaths - 2 ounces (50ml) will make a very effective footbath when mixed with warm water.

Spraying it on the body will result in a higher magnesium concentration on the skin. Therefore, an ounce used that way will result in more magnesium absorbed than several ounces or even more used in a bath.

Add 25-50ml (1-2oz) of Bishofit to 5-6 litres of warm water for a pleasant and relaxing foot bath. Good and economical way to get regular doses of magnesium into your body.

Dilute 25ml (1oz) of Bishofit   in  1 glass (250ml) of warm water (1:10). Can be used as a vaginal douche for minor infections. Same dilution but a larger amount can be used in a sitz bath.

Use the same dilution as for a vaginal douche. Gargle, spray/ rinse mouth/ throat to fight  infection, strengthen teeth and revitalize the gums.

A few sprays of any type of Bishofit (use diluted product to avoid irritation) under each armpit works both as an effective deodorant and to transport magnesium into the body systems through the lymphatic nodes positioned in the armpits. It can also be applied by hand. Spray/wash feet with it to achieve the same effect.

Bishofit is especially effective when used as a massage medium. It has an oily consistency which makes it very suitable for massage. 

Massage speeds up circulation, opens up pores and  raises the skin temperature by attracting blood to the area. This improves the absorption by the body of  Magnesium and other minerals contained in Bishofit. Dilute the product if necessary to suit each particular skin type.

Add "Bishofit" to clay and mud packs and body wraps, compresses and poultices. Such applications ensure a more prolonged action and therefore stronger effect on the body due to the fact that they stay on the body much  longer than any other applications and in a more concentrated form. Also, muds and clays have a thermal effect on the body raising the skin temperature under the application. This is especially useful in the  treatment of arthritis,  muscle aches and pains, musculo-skeletal disorders, as well as any other conditions associated with magnesium deficiency.

The effectiveness of transdermal applications of  Magnesium Chloride is explained by the skin's ability to absorb substances which are then transported by the circulatory system around the body. Transdermal applications are widely used in the orthodox medicine in the form of patches for a variety of medications where continuous intake of medical substances is required (e.g. HRT, cigarette patches,etc.). Transdermal effect is also used in holisitc therapies (e.g. Aromatherapy).

It is safe, since transdermally there is no risk of overdosing - the skin will not absorb more magnesium than the body needs. However, it must never be ingested and must be kept in a safe place - away from children.
