Epsom salts can be used in various ways beyond traditional baths, making them accessible for those who only have showers or limited bathing facilities. Here are some alternative methods to enjoy the benefits of Epsom salts:
Shower Applications
1. Shower Sprinkle
Sprinkle a handful of Epsom salts on the shower floor before starting your shower. As the warm water hits the salts, they will dissolve, releasing their aromatherapeutic benefits into the steam
Create a body scrub by mixing Epsom salts with a carrier oil like coconut or almond oil. Use this mixture to exfoliate your skin during your shower, paying special attention to rough or dry areas
Place a small dish with moistened Epsom salts in a dry spot in your shower. As you shower, the steam will help release the aromatherapeutic properties of the salts, creating a spa-like experience

1. Foot Soak
For those without a bathtub, a foot soak is an excellent alternative. Add Epsom salts to warm water in a basin and soak your feet to relieve aches, treat athlete's foot, or simply relax
