Doctors and wellness experts cite a wide range of health benefits from either taking a bath or soaking your feet in Epsom salt, from relieving chronic pain to fighting off colds and flu to treating sore and callused feet and a wide array of skin conditions.
A relaxing Epsom salt bath can relieve stress and help you sleep better. And, making it part of your daily routine can boost your body’s levels of magnesium and sulfur—two minerals essential to proper body function.
