1. Melts the tension out of tight, end-of-day muscles
Massage therapists started calling magnesium lotion "muscle melter" for a reason. Magnesium is one of the few minerals directly involved in the contract-and-release cycle every muscle in your body uses, meaning when magnesium gets to a tight muscle, the muscle can finally let go. Tight shoulders, locked-up lower back, knotted neck, sore calves? Massage it directly into the area. Most people feel the release within 10-15 minutes. Not warming sensation theater. Actual release.
