Improving Sleep Quality With Magnesium Oil? Let’s Try It!

Magnesium, a superstar mineral, plays a vital role in numerous bodily functions, including muscle and nerve health. Deficiency in magnesium has been linked to sleep disturbances. Magnesium oil, a concentrated solution of magnesium chloride, has gained popularity as a natural sleep remedy.

Here’s the scoop on how magnesium oil might benefit your sleep:

• Potential Benefits: Studies suggest that magnesium may improve sleep quality by alleviating issues like restless legs syndrome and cramps, which can disrupt sleep patterns.
• How to Use It: Apply a few spritzes of magnesium oil onto clean skin, like your feet or arms, roughly 30 minutes before bedtime. Gently massage it in to promote absorption.

• Important Considerations: Magnesium oil can cause a tingling or itching sensation on the skin. Start with a small amount and see how your skin reacts. It might not be suitable for sensitive skin, so in this case you may want to try one with aloe vera to minimize any discomfort.

• Consult Your Doctor: Before incorporating magnesium oil into your routine, talk to your doctor, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or take medications.

Real User Experience

We’ve tried magnesium oil ourselves, and to our surprise, it seemed to have worked! After applying it before bed, we experienced a noticeable improvement in sleep quality.

A few years ago, I often used Seven Minerals Head Harmony Spray for my migraines, which had Magnesium, Lavender, Sweet Marjoram, Peppermint, Rosemary and Basil. Applying it to my forehead during migraine attacks provided some relief. Interestingly, I never considered using it for sleep until now. Unfortunately, it seems the one I was using is not in production anymore or I can’t find it in stock. Nevertheless, Seven Minerals have essential oil blends for various conditions:

Remember: While magnesium oil may be helpful for some, it's not a magic bullet for sleep problems. If you're experiencing persistent sleep issues, consult a healthcare professional to explore a wider range of solutions.

In addition to magnesium oil, there are other ways to create a relaxing bedtime routine that promotes better sleep.

Digital Detox for Better Sleep:

Avoid exposure to screens for at least an hour before bed. The blue light emitted by electronic devices can disrupt your sleep cycle. Replace your infinite scrolling with a calming activity like reading a book. A lavender roll-on can also be helpful. Apply the essential oil to your inner wrists to enhance relaxation. Lavender oil has calming properties that can promote better sleep.
