Muscle-Soothing Bath Salts

by

salt1.jpgjar.jpgSoaking in this refreshing bath is the perfect way to unwind after a day of strenuous physical activity. You will feel your muscles relax as your bathe. Keep a jar of the mix in your bathroom; after a gruelling day, add a scoop or two to your bathwater. For fragrance, simple add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to the water along with the salts. This treatment can be drying to your skin, so remember to moisturize thoroughly afterward.

You will need:

• 1 cup sea salt or kosher salt
• 1 cup baking soda
• 1 cup Epsom salt

Mix all ingridents together and store in a clean 24 ounce jar with a tight-fitting lid. To use, add 1/2 to 1 cup of the bath salts directly beneath the warm, running water as you fill the bathtub. Soak in the bath for 15 to 20 minutes. Afterward, moisturize your skin throughly with a rich, natural oil.

If you want to scent of the oils in your salts, place all the above ingredients into a zippered bag and add a few drops of your favorite oil. I like to add eucalyptus oil to the salts during the winter and citrus essential oils in the summer. Seal and shake the bag once the desired amount of drops are added. Once the essential oils have incorporated into the salts. Pour the salt mixture into your clean 24 ounce jar. Make sure the jar you use has a tight-fitting lid to help keep out unwanted moisture.
