A quick look at transdermal magnesium. When digestion is compromised, (such is the case with issues like Crohn’s disease, colitis, IBS or IBD) the absorption of vitamins and minerals from diet and supplementation can be limited. One of the most efficient ways to get magnesium into the body is through transdermal methods like hydrotherapy. Hydrotherapy is simply using water as a medium for health and healing. By taking a bath or foot soak with warm water and magnesium flakes you are actually absorbing magnesium through the skin, bypassing the compromised digestive system. Magnesium has over 200 processes for the body. One of the most important being stress management. When we are in a stressed state, (as most people have been for the last two years or more) magnesium is being rapidly depleted from the body. Magnesium flakes are a great way to help keep optimal levels in the body.
