5 Ways Magnesium Cream is the Ultimate Body Multitasker

The benefits of magnesium cream are wide-reaching and practical. In this blog post, we break down how magnesium cream can help tackle common problems, efficiently.

Magnesium is often called the “mighty mineral” for good reason—it’s involved in hundreds of processes in the body that help us feel our best. But did you know you can use magnesium cream topically to support your body in some really meaningful ways? Here’s how this simple cream can make a big difference in your day-to-day life.Ever wondered why some days your body feels like it's running on empty, despite that third cup of coffee? As an osteopath and mum, I've been there – juggling kids, work, and trying to keep it all together while my shoulders feel like they're made of concrete. That's exactly why I created our signature Magnesium Spray, and today, I'm pulling back the curtain to share the science (and a few mum-life truths) behind it.

1. Sore Muscles, Meet Your Match

After a big day on your feet or a session at the gym, muscle tightness and aches can really dampen your evening. And no one told me, after the age of 40, you still feel it the next day 😆 Magnesium Chloride has many properties, one of which is being a neuromuscular relaxant. It has the effect of relaxation on the nervous system and the musculoskeletal system. Rubbing magnesium cream directly into tired muscles can help them relax and recover, making it easier to get up and go again tomorrow. Whether it’s your calves, back, or shoulders, a quick massage with magnesium cream can make a noticeable difference.After a big day on your feet or a session at the gym, muscle tightness and aches can really dampen your evening.

2. Restful Sleep Support

If you’re counting sheep and still not drifting off, magnesium might be a little secret power play your can use against your mind. The relaxation properties magnesium chloride has on the nervous system help to calm the mind and the body. Applying magnesium cream before bed can help calm your nervous system and support those all-important sleep cycles. Rub a little into the soles of your feet, tummy or shoulders as part of your wind-down routine and let the day melt away.

3. Relief for Restless Legs

If you get that uncomfortable, twitchy feeling in your legs at night, you know how disruptive it can be. Magnesium cream can help settle restless legs, making it easier to drift off and stay asleep. It’s a simple, gentle option to support more comfortable nights.

4. Headache Helper

Tension headaches always seem to strike at the most inconvenient of times. Well, there is no convenient time but they do seem to occur when we are hot on the go, which is when we often develop stress or muscle tightness in the neck and shoulders. Gently massaging magnesium cream into your neck, shoulders, or a very small bit across the top of your brow can help ease muscle tension and support relief during this hectic moment.

5. Energy for the Day Ahead

Magnesium is required to make a usable course of energy in the body- called ATP. You can't convert food and glucose to ATP without magnesium. So, if you are low on energy, it makes sense to get some magnesium into the equation to create energy! While magnesium cream isn’t a magic energy booster, it can help support your body’s natural energy production. Regular use may help you feel less sluggish and more ready to take on the day—especially when combined with good sleep, drinking enough water and daily movement.
