Pure Magnesium-Rich Sea Minerals for Transdermal Use
How effective is magnesium absorbed through the skin? Consider the evidence from studies:
The magnesium chloride used in our Magnesium Chloride line of products tests clean for heavy metals, contaminants and toxins. However, it is licensed and recommended only for external use.
Magnesium chloride hexahydrate (MCH) is chemically/laboratory produced. Our Magnesium Chloride topical magnesium products are ‘wildcrafted’. That means, they’re taken directly from salt evaporation ponds. Hexaydrate means “without water” and when MCH topical brands make magnesium spray, cream or “oil”, they rehydrate these lab-produced magnesium flakes. MCH only includes magnesium chloride without the 90 naturally-occurring trace minerals found in our wildcrafted magnesium chloride from seawater. We believe that many of these trace minerals are also transdermal and beneficial to our health.
Whenever a new batch of Magnesium Chloride is released, it is lab tested to validate that there are no contaminants. It is tested for petrochemicals, pathogens, agricultural runoff and heavy metals that might be harmful. It tests clean or we don’t use it.
Our Magnesium Chloride is derived from salt evaporation ponds along the coast of Southern California. Depending on prevailing temperatures and inches of rain, the ocean water captured in the ponds will sit for 3 to 6 months until sufficient water has evaporated to cause the salt to drop out of suspension. The water that remains on top of the salt is naturally high in magnesium chloride as well as approximately 80 other trace minerals.
Some people use our Magnesium Chloride liquid as a toner, to tighten and smooth skin before applying other products in the morning or at night. Others use Magnesium Chloride Balm as a facial moisturizer. Allow the magnesium 20-minutes or so to absorb into the skin before applying any other product.
Your skin should absorb the magnesium transdermally in approximately 20 minutes. If you’re using the Magnesium Chloride liquid, spray or gel, you may wish to rinse it off. The Magnesium Chloride Balm is very emollient, like a rich cream, and is meant to be left on until your next shower or bath.
Your skin effectively regulates the amount of magnesium absorbed. There is no risk of taking in too much magnesium transdermally. The only consideration is personal comfort.
Think of our topical magnesium as you would seawater. If your skin is broken or irritated, you may experience discomfort. Use caution on damaged or inflamed the skin. Although magnesium chloride liquid is healing (much like seawater) it is advisable to start with a conservative application, and if necessary, further dilute the product to comfort.
Using both topical and oral magnesium as part of a daily regime is a great way to treat and prevent magnesium deficiency. Some people find they get the best relief from their symptoms when they double-up on magnesium. There is further no reason to avoid using both. Your body regulates the amount of magnesium it absorbs through the skin, so there’s no risk of applying too much topically. If you are sensitive to the gentle laxative effect of Natural Calm Magnesium Citrate Powder, simply use less of the powder and more of the topical magnesium.
No. Magnesium absorbed transdermally (through the skin) pybasses the digestive tract, targetting cells directly. You should not experience a laxative effect.
Magnesium chloride has an oil-like texture; it feels silky. However, magnesium chloride itself is not an oil and is non-staining. Only our Magnesium Chloride Balm combines magnesium chloride with oils. Magnesium Chloride liquid, spray and gel are oil-free.
Our Magnesium Chloride line of products deliver magnesium chloride through the skin. Magnesium Chloride Liquid is a concentrated form of pure magnesium chloride. Most users will wish to dilute the full-strength liquid prior to use. Magnesium Chloride Balm combines magnesium chloride with coconut oil, shea butter and beeswax. It’s rich, moisturizing and ideal for those with sensitive skin. Magnesium Chloride Spray is a diluted version of the full-strength liquid, and it comes in a convenient spray bottle. It’s also suitable for sensitive skin. Magnesium Chloride Gel is ideal for massaging into tense, painful and spasming muscles. Like the balm and spray, it is also a diluted form of magnesium chloride.
Many people report a feeling of relaxation when they use our topical magnesium products. However, there is no reason to believe you will feel sleepy. Magnesium is essential for both energy production and proper sleep.
Topical magnesium can be applied at any time of day. Use it when you have muscle tension, aches or pains. When applied in the evening, our topical magnesium can help to prevent restless legs and other muscle-related sleep disturbances.

“I used Magnesium Liquid on my legs, hips and lower back when training for my first marathon at the age of 48. The difference it made was significant. It helped my sore, tight muscles to relax after my training runs so that I could go out again the next day. I have no doubt I would not have been able to complete the marathon if it was not for using the oil to help me recover each day. Great product!”

“I’m absolutely amazed at how well the Magnesium Liquid works when I have any issues with my muscles. Having back and neck issues, getting a massage with the spray instead of any other oil really reduces the pain factor the next day. Once again, THANK YOU!”
Phyllis –
Just wondering: how do I store the magnesium once the bottle is opened. As well, you recommend 1:1 dilution however, the directions indicate 1:19 with 1 ml magnesium liquid to 19 ml of water. Which one is correct? Do I massage the entire solution of 1:19? Is this a recommended treatment for afib?
Anna O’Byrne –
Hi Phyllis,
You can store the liquid mag at room temp.
The directions indicate 1:19 because that’s what we’re required to recommend on the label. However, that dilution is quite extreme unless you’re adding it to a bath. Most people find 1:1 perfect and some people (with insensitive skin) apply it directly, undiluted! Sorry for the confusing directions. Our hands are somewhat tied on labelling. The good news is that there’s quite a bit of flexibility in how you use it.
As for afib, naturally we can’t give medical advice on individual situations, but we do have customers who tell us Natural Calm magnesium taken orally has helped their heart conditions, including irregular heartbeat.
Thank you,
Anna

This liquid has saved my life. I could not absorb magnesium through oral supplements but by rubbing magnesium chloride on my arms and legs twice a day I am now maintaining normal levels of magnesium in my system! Thank you Natural Calm!
Anna O’Byrne –
Gerald, thank you so much for sharing your story! We appreciate it and hope it will help others as well.

I use magnasium chloride that I rub on my legs and arms,it is very good for leg cramps. I use to have them almost every night ,being using that for over 2 years ,very rarely have one .l wound,nt be without it….
Violet –
The directions say to “dilute with water or a skin-friendly oil when applying directly to the skin.” Can I also combine it with my regular moisturizing lotion (for example, I use St. Ives hand and body lotion)? Would it still be just as effective?
Anna O’Byrne –
Hi Violet,
Absolutely, you can dilute it with any moisturizing product at all. We’ve had success mixing it with oil but let us know how you like it with moisturizer!

Tina –
Can it be mixed in a roller ball with fractionated coconut oil? If so, what ratio should I use?
Anna O’Byrne –
Hi Tina,
Yes, the liquid magnesium chloride can be mixed with any skin-friendly oil. The ratio depends on your personal comfort – try about 50:50 to start. If your roller ball dispenses liquids and if the coconut oil doesn’t block the mechanism, it could very well work.
Thank you,
Anna

It makes my muscles feel much better within minutes. I use it for chronic muscle pain, and I love that it’s natural and something your body needs anyway.

I cannot take some magnesium tablets orally because of my ostomy bag and found both the spray and the gel at a local store. I will be starting to use your product and I am looking forward to the day I do not need my weekly magnesium infusions, maybe monthly infusions. I will let you know how I do.

Can you please tell me the best one to buy for the bath for a toddler 2 and a half years old with autism to help him sleep he is not on any medication
Anna Bolton O’Byrne –
Hi Ann, I’m sorry for the delay. You can put MagTherapy Liquid in the bath for your child – a footbath is great. You can also rub the MagTherapy Balm on his body. If he feels a tingle (mag chloride is a salt – so it’s a bit like being in salt water), you can dilute the footbath or add additional coconut oil to the MagTherapy Balm. The spray is great as well – very easy to use. It’s really your preference!
Candice –
Can I mix in lotion and use it over time or do I have to mix it fresh each application?
Chad Shears –
Hi, you should be able to mix it into lotion as it doesn’t degrade in strength

Having suffered from nasty leg cramps for a couple of years, Natural Calm Magnesium Chloride was a very welcome relief. Within minutes of applying it to the cramp area, the cramp and the pain was gone.
Yvette m. –
I have taken almost every magnesium there is and my levels were always low going for blood work every 3 months and always low , all the supplements made me sick. The liquid magnesium is the only thing that has brought my levels up for the first time in 6 years and my doctor hasn’t ordered more blood work. I rub it on the back of my legs every night before bed. I’m over the moon happy that I found this product hope it’s around forever.

For years, I’ve suffered with restless leg syndrome. The nerve pain disturbs my sleep, which affects every aspect of my day. I’ve read about negative side effects for prescription meds. I use Natural Calm magnesium citrate as a supplement and to improve my mood; however, if I take the recommended daily dose it causes digestive issues (diarrhea). Then I tried the topical gel and liquid from Natural Calm. I noticed improvement within a couple of days, and the unpleasant sensations have virtually disappeared. It’s easy to apply; I put it on my lower legs, front and back, and the inside of my forearms for quick absorption. I appreciate a natural solution made of a mineral my body needs. Highly recommend.
Brenda –
Great stuff and fast delivery.

I like the topical magnesium because it seems to bypass the gastrointestinal system, so no diarrhea from ingesting pills etc. I apply it to my back and legs after my bath, and wait several minutes, and then wipe off any residue with a warm washcloth. The magnesium has penetrated the skin and given me a good dose. I’ve used it for many years. Great product and excellent ministry!
