What is Transdermal Magnesium Therapy?
- Transdermal magnesium refers to applying magnesium salts (typically magnesium chloride) to the skin for absorption.
- Magnesium is essential for over 300 biochemical reactions, including muscle function, nerve regulation, and cellular energy metabolism.
- Many people do not reach recommended magnesium intake through diet alone, making topical magnesium a practical complement to oral supplementation.
- Topical magnesium is versatile, allowing for targeted application to areas of tension, such as shoulders, neck, calves, and feet.
