For the Skin: Sprayed on the sun-damaged skin
regularly, the skin will begin to rejuvenate from the inside out and after a few
months it will be significantly restored. Helps with wrinkles as well as
hair health and growth.
Dental: As a mouthwash sprayed into the mouth it is excellent
for the gums and pushes the mouths ph up. Strengthens teeth and is
excellent for gingivitis. It is magnesium, not calcium, which helps
form hard tooth enamel resistant to decay.
Mucus Membranes: People have used low concentrations for nose
and eye washes and even for application in the vagina. (Beware of
stimulative effect).
General Tonic: Magnesium Chloride is a strong tonic boosting all
aspects of cell physiology and energy production. Magnesium is
essential for life as it participates in over 325 enzyme reactions.
Expect more energy, strength and endurance and even increased sexual
energy.
Sports: Magnesium is perhaps the single most important mineral
to sports nutrition. Over 70% of the U.S. population is magnesium
deficient. This is true especially of athletes. During vigorous
exercise, people loose through their sweat critical minerals, the most
important being magnesium. Adequate magnesium level will help your body
against fatigue, heat exhaustion, blood sugar control and metabolism.
Pain Relief: Transdermal magnesium chloride treatments are
essential in the treatment of sport injuries and the aches and pains of
sore muscles.
Natural Immune System Booster: Dr. A. Neveu observed that
magnesium chloride has no direct effect on bacteria (i.e. it is not an
antibiotic). Thus he thought that its action was a specific,
immune-enhancing, so it could be useful against viral diseases.
Memory and Cognitive Function: Magnesium deficit may lead to
decreased memory and learning ability, while an abundance of magnesium
may improve cognitive function in children and the elderly.
Magnesium Chloride
("Bishofit") can be applied transdermally using the following methods:
- Compresses (very effective and economical method. Can be used for
localised aches/pains, arthritis, wounds, etc.)
- Baths; (effective, but less economical, than a
compress.
Works on the whole body).
- Spays (very effective and economical way of getting
required doses of magnesium and maintain healthy skin condition).
- Foot baths (effective and safe, especially suitable for
children. Excellent for tired legs, muscle cramps, as well as a way to
deliver magnesium to the body).
- As part of clay and mud packs (body wraps, compresses,
masks, poultices). Excellent for the skin and a great way to bring Magnesium
to the body.
Some people may find that pure magnesium oil may irritate their skin.
If this happens, make a pause in the treatments until the irritation
goes away and try diluted solutions. Only diluted 'Bishofit'
should be used for transdermal applications for children and people
with sensitive skins.
Bath
"Soak the whole body or just the feet in bath water for 20-30
minutes, at a temperature of about 108 degrees 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.
Muscle spasms might occur on rare occasions if one
forgets to get out of the tub so it is necessary to supervise children
and the length of time they remain soaking in magnesium chloride. All
strong reactions like redness in local areas to diarrhea or even muscle
spasms are indications to reduce concentration...".

spray/wash
Spraying
Magnesium Chloride solution on the body 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 people with muscle injuries concentrated magnesium baths or several
applications of the solution a day should be used. Dilution rate - 1-2 tbsp per 200ml of water.
Foot
bath
Add 100g of magnesium bath flake 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.
Deodorant
A few sprays of a concentrated solution (1 tbsp per 100ml of water)
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.
Massage
medium
Magnesium Chloride 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 the product.
skin type.
Mask/ body wrap/ compress / poultice
Add 5% magnesium chloride solution to clay and mud packs, 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.
Why is it effective?
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).

One of the most comprehensive books on therapeutic uses and applications of magnesium, "Transdermal Magnesium Therapy is the
first and only book that focuses on one of the most important, exciting, and natural ways of
magnesium replenishment; i.e., as absorbed through the skin. Mark Sircus has researched the
scientific research on magnesium, and found hundreds of cases that prove its critical role in the maintenance of our health".
