The Vital Role of Magnesium
The Vital Role of Magnesium
Magnesium is an essential mineral that supports countless functions in the body. Yet, an estimated 75% of Americans are deficient. Magnesium plays a role in:
✔ Supporting the nervous system – Helps promote relaxation and stress balance
✔ Aiding muscle & heart function – Essential for proper movement and cardiovascular health
✔ Helping maintain blood sugar levels – Plays a role in glucose metabolism
✔ Supporting healthy blood pressure – Contributes to overall heart health
Magnesium is key to feeling your best—and soaking in it is an easy addition to your wellness routine. Soaking in Rapha Blends Magnesium Flakes provides a soothing way to relax, ease tired muscles, and support natural magnesium replenishment by potentially elevating magnesium levels.

What if I don't have/can't access a bath tub?
Consider trying a foot soak! Our feet are one of the most absorbable parts of our body, allowing you to receive the benefits of magnesium by simply soaking them in a small bucket of water with a 1/2 cup of Rapha Blends Magnesium Flakes.
You may also consider any Rapha Blends Magnesium Oil as an alternative to soaking. These highly concentrated oils are misted onto the arms, legs, feet, and torso, allowing the Magnesium Chloride to fully absorb.
