EPSOM SALT BATH

Epsom salts are highly beneficial for the lymphatic system due to their high levels of magnesium along with a compound of sulfites that flushes toxins and heavy metals out of your body through a process called reverse osmosis.

In combination with the natural diuretic quality of mineral salts and the temperature of the water, Epsom salt baths can reduce inflammation and have also been shown to stimulate lymphatic circulation in the body.

I would recommend taking an Epsom salt bath after your Ballancer®Pro session or after any lymphatic self-massage, as it will enhance the therapeutic effects of draining toxins. Additionally, a soak in a bath helps promote the parasympathetic nervous system, which resets the body from the harmful effects of stress.

Fill you tub with hot water and add 2 cups of Epsom salts, let dissolve. Soak for at least 20 minutes. At the end of the bath, shower off in tepid water. 

NOTE: If you have lymphedema, use body-temperature water for your soak instead of hot water.
