Bath Salts & Epsom Salts Benefits

Looking for an easy way to relax tired muscles? Bath Salts from Epsom salts have been know to do so. Adding a cup of Epsom salts to your bath tub full of water can help you relax those muscles and has several other benefits. See my post here.

eases stress
relaxes the body
relieves muscle pain and cramps
eliminates body toxins
relieves constipation
improves heart health
may reduce diabetes

The beautiful thing about it is that you can add other natural ingredients to the Epsom salts to create your very own customization. You could make it colorful, fancy, more rejuvenating or just use it plain.

What You Can Add to Epsom Salts to Create Bath Salts

Food coloring – to add a touch of color (you can use all-natural food coloring)
Baking Soda – to aid with cleaning
Essential Oils – So many benefitss
Dried Herbs (thyme, rosemary, etc).
Lavender Flowers
Bath Tea leaves
Flower Petals
Sea Salt

All you need is a bag of bath Salts (which is super frugal, by the way) and your add-ins to mix up whatever combinations you would like. You could add just one other ingredient to bath salts or a combination of a few. As an example, herbs plus essential oils plus natural food coloring can create something beautiful.

Two-Ingredient Herb & Essential Oil Bath Salts

This Bath Salts only has two ingredients but it’s packed full of essential oils too since both the Epsom Salts and Bath Tea already have Essential Oils mixed into them. I also love that this Epsom Salt contains other natural ingredients such as Shea butter and Almond Oil. You can get plain Epsom Salts here and the exact one I used with Shea Butter and Almond oil here.

What you need

Epsom Salts
Pick One – Bath Tea Leaves, Lavender Bath Tea, Camomile Flowers
A Mason Jar

What to do

Add 1-1/2 Cups Epsom Salts to a glass bowl.
Mix in 1/4 Cup Bath Tea.
Pour the mix into a Mason Jar or other glass jar. Keep covered.
When needed, add about a 1/2 of bath salts into your tub of water.
