Why Mineral Salt Baths?

Magnesium chloride flakes, Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate), and Himalayan pink salt baths aid sports recovery by delivering magnesium to soothe sore muscles, reduce inflammation, and improve relaxation, with flakes offering higher absorption, Epsom salts promoting general relaxation and skin health, and Himalayan salt providing trace minerals for hydration and electrolyte balance, all reducing post-exercise fatigue and stiffness.

Magnesium Chloride Flakes

High Absorption: Delivers magnesium through the skin efficiently, ideal for intensive muscle recovery.

Muscle Relief: Soothes muscle tension, spasms, and fatigue after workouts.

Relaxation: Promotes relaxation, better sleep, and mental clarity, reducing overall stress.

Skin Health: Can help retain moisture and calm the skin.


Epsom Salts (Magnesium Sulfate)

General Relaxation: Widely used for full-body relaxation and easing muscle soreness.

Exfoliation: Helps remove dead skin cells and can prevent minor skin infections.

Inflammation: Soothes inflamed muscles and joints, reducing swelling.

Pink Himalayan Sea Salt

Electrolyte Balance: Provides essential trace minerals (calcium, potassium, iron) that help with hydration and electrolyte balance, crucial for muscle function.

Hydration: Supports overall body hydration.

Skin Benefits: Can soothe skin and improve conditions.


Common Benefits

Sore Muscle Relief: All three help relax tight muscles and reduce post-exercise soreness.
Reduced Inflammation: Magnesium helps lower inflammation in tired muscles.

Improved Recovery: Supports faster physical and mental recovery, helping athletes bounce back.

Skin Hydration: Can leave skin feeling softer and more nourished.

How to Use (General Guidelines)

Bath Soak: Dissolve 1-2 handfuls in warm (not hot) bathwater and soak for 20-30 minutes.

Foot Soak: Use a smaller basin with about half a cup for targeted foot relief.

Why citrus oils?

Citrus oils (like orange, lemon, grapefruit, and bergamot) are great for mood because their invigorating scents boost energy, reduce stress, and promote feelings of happiness and calm, helping with anxiety and low spirits by influencing brain areas linked to emotion, offering an uplifting yet relaxing effect. They provide mental clarity and a positive outlook, making them ideal for aromatherapy to enhance focus, creativity, and overall well-being, especially during winter or demanding tasks.

Key Mood Benefits:

May Reduce Stress & Anxiety: Inhaling citrus scents can lower stress hormones and reduce anxiety, with studies showing benefits for children and adults in stressful situations

Uplifts Mood: The fresh, zesty aromas naturally lift spirits, creating a more positive and cheerful atmosphere.

Boosts Energy & Focus: Citrus oils invigorate the senses, helping combat sluggishness, improving concentration, and promoting alertness.

Note: our made-to-order mineral salt bath soaks are best used within 2-4 months of their made date. Enjoy!

  • So grateful I found these

    I originally bought these bath salts and shower steamers from 8 Elephants by Molly for my child, who has incredibly sensitive skin — and we’re both obsessed now! I’m usually super cautious about what I use on them, but the clean, natural ingredients gave me peace of mind. Not only did they not irritate their skin, but they actually left it soft and soothed.

    It’s rare to find something that smells amazing, feels luxurious, and works for sensitive skin — but these are phenomenal. You can tell there’s intention and care behind every product. We’re officially hooked!

  • Top Quality Epsom Salts

    First off, the product itself is amazing. We tried the muscle restoration blend of epsom salts and the smell was so good! You only need a little to make the whole bathroom smell like eucalyptus. The salt was such good quality and the packing was adorable. In comparison to store-bought epsom salts…there is no comparison. These are 10x better. The owner, Molly, is also so sweet and knowledgeable. Will 100000% be back for my next bag of epsom salts.

  • Exceptional Products

    Simply THE BEST shower steamers I've ever used - they last for an entire long shower! The packaging is super adorable and I loved the addition of the pressed flower! I will absolutely be ordering again both for myself and to give as gifts :)
