Sore muscles? An epsom salt bath is for you!

Here’s a top tip for ladies with sore muscles. At this time of year our farming ladies are in the thick of calving, and I know how tired and sore your back starts to get.

When placed in water, Epsom salt breaks down into magnesium and sulfate. The theory is that when you soak in an Epsom salt bath, these minerals get absorbed into your body through the skin. This may help relax muscles, reduce swelling and pain from arthritis, and relieve pain from fibromyalgia and various causes.

So the next time you’re in town, grab a bag of Epsom Salts and give it a try in a hot bath. Relax and unwind, this is perfect for our ‘ME’ time on ‘Self Love Sunday’. Sarah xx
