Restless nights, cramping legs, and the fatigue of a long day on your feet, eased with a formula you apply directly where it's needed.
Use this checklist to determine if you need magnesium oil spray.
Magnesium Oil is a high concentration of Magnesium Chloride (MgCl₂) in water, not ingested as a pill. Topical application refers to the magnesium being absorbed through the skin, and so directly into the muscles. No digestive side effects. No delayed absorption in the gut. The legs, calf and soles of the feet are among the most effective application sites as they have a high pore density near the muscles that require this most.
Step 01
Apply to clean, dry skin. Legs, calves, and the soles of your feet are ideal areas for application.
Step 02
Spray 5–10 times onto the desired area and massage gently with upward strokes toward the knee.
Step 03
Allow 10–20 minutes before putting on socks or clothing.
Step 04
Use as part of your evening wind-down routine, around 20–30 minutes before bed, or after exercise as part of a relaxing post-activity massage.
Note
A mild tingling sensation may occur during application, especially on sensitive skin. If irritation occurs, rinse the area with water and discontinue use if it persists. Avoid broken or irritated skin.
Pro Tip
Try applying magnesium oil after a warm soak as part of your relaxation routine. Dry your skin first and avoid applying to irritated areas.

Individual experiences vary. Topical magnesium has not been conclusively shown to improve sleep, reduce cramps, or provide meaningful magnesium absorption through the skin.
Muscle relaxation & cramp relief: Magnesium plays an important role in muscle contraction and relaxation by helping regulate calcium within muscle cells. Low magnesium levels can sometimes contribute to muscle cramps. Applying magnesium oil to calves and feet can be part of a relaxing massage routine, although faster relief through skin absorption has not been established.
Sleep support: Magnesium is involved in normal nervous system function, including processes associated with GABA signalling. Many people enjoy applying magnesium oil as part of a calming nighttime routine, around 20–30 minutes before bed. However, evidence that topical magnesium improves sleep remains limited.

Skin health: Magnesium chloride can be incorporated into a regular foot and leg care routine. Research into topical magnesium's effects on collagen, inflammation and skin hydration is still limited, and magnesium chloride may cause dryness or irritation on sensitive skin.
Every question you were too embarrassed to ask.
Oral magnesium works, but many of the supplements are absorbed during digestion, and higher doses often have laxative effects. Magnesium Oil does not get into the gut; it is absorbed through the skin and may be used on the particular muscle or region for relief. Topical application is a convenient option for those who are unable to take the medication by mouth or prefer to use a topical treatment to relieve specific symptoms in their legs and feet.
Yes completely. The tingling sensation occurs due to the magnesium's high concentration reacting with receptors in the skin, and is not dangerous. Usually decreases after a few weeks of regular use. Use on slightly moistened skin or dilute with a little water on the skin before rubbing in if it feels uncomfortable.
Use is safe and beneficial to the majority of people on a daily basis. To prevent cramps and aid sleep, apply before bedtime. Apply after exercise for post workout recovery. You can use as much topical magnesium as you like, since too much will not be absorbed beyond the body's requirements.
Both are safe for topical use of magnesium. This is popular among pregnant women because they tend to have increased magnesium requirements and leg cramps during pregnancy, but always check with a midwife/doctor first. The formula is free of parabens and any other irritants, which is great for diabetics. Do not apply to broken skin, wounds or an area where there is a current infection and see your healthcare provider if you have more serious circulation problems or neuropathy.
