Your new secret weapon for relaxation and wellbeing – Magnesium Oil Spray for Sleep, Stress & Muscle Relief (NZ Made)

Struggling to switch off at night, feeling tense, or dealing with sore muscles?

Our magnesium oil spray is a simple, natural way to help your body relax, unwind, and recover so you can feel better in your body and mind again.

“Loved the ease of use, just spray on and let it work its magic. I’ve had the best, and deepest sleep since I’ve started using your magnesium oil spray.” – Yvette

Why people use magnesium oil

Better sleep
Magnesium helps calm your nervous system, making it easier to relax and fall asleep naturally.

Stress & tension relief
Magnesium helps calm busy, racing minds, making it easier to relax and focus.

Muscle recovery
Magnesium helps soothe sore, tight muscles after workouts, long days, or time on your feet.

“Easy to apply and it really works to support muscle fatigue and cramps!” – Justine

Why you’ll love Salt & Oil’s Magnesium Oil Spray

  • Fast, easy topical application (no pills or gritty drinks)
  • Absorbs quickly into the skin
  • No strange smell
  • Supports relaxation, sleep, and recovery naturally
  • Simple to use as part of your daily routine
  • Suitable for all the family
  • NZ-made with quality ingredients

Did you know?

You can also use your magnesium spray as an effective deodorant? Just remember what I said about shaving though!

If you experience chocolate cravings it’s thought your body is giving you a big hint that it needs some magnesium. Try using your mag oil every day and see if it makes a difference!

Pro Tip – If you’re lucky enough to go for a massage, take your magnesium oil with you so your therapist can super boost your session!

  • Stressed Out [delete as applicable] Parents, Business Owners, Students, Shift Workers, Teachers, Health Care Workers, Politicians, Lawyers … the list is endless.
  • People who are having trouble getting to sleep or having interrupted sleep  (unless it’s because of babies or toddlers, then the only advice we can give is ‘wait a few years’ sorry).
  • People who experience aches, pains and niggly bits after a workout. Or, as I’m discovering at my age, gnarly knots and muscle tension after sitting too long at my desk or sneezing when I’m bent over tying up a shoelace!
  • Athletes and Sports Players who are looking for an ‘edge’ in their recovery and performance, both physically and mentally.

For sleep
Spray onto legs or feet before bed and allow to absorb.

For stress
Apply to shoulders, neck, or arms to help relax and unwind.

For sore muscles
Spray directly onto tight or tired areas after activity.

TOP TIP – Use daily for best results. Our modern lifestyles mean we use up lots of magnesium daily. Our bodies can’t make it so we need to top it up often to handle all that life throws at us!

Magnesium oil is for external use only. Avoid contact with your eyes and other sensitive areas such as broken skin. Don’t apply to skin that will be exposed to sunlight as this may cause irritation. Don’t apply to newly-shaved skin – learned the hard way by moi!

It’s a simple, fast, effective way of replenishing your magnesium levels. So many of us are low in magnesium and it can make such a difference to our vitality and well-being if we supplement it. But not everyone likes taking the large pills or powdered drinks. Magnesium oil absorbs into your skin to get to work where it’s needed, without bypassing your gut. Oral magnesium can be affected by your digestive acids so you don’t get its full benefit.

By boosting your magnesium levels you may experience these benefits and more:

  • Sore muscle relief
  • Fewer cramps and muscle spasms
  • Headache relief
  • Fewer PMS symptoms
  • Less restless legs
  • Improved sleep
  • Lower feelings of stress and anxiety
  • Improved focus and memory
  • Increased energy

No, it’s not really an oil, and it doesn’t contain oil. It’s simply pure, food grade magnesium chloride flakes that have been turned into a liquid brine with distilled water. It will absorb into your skin and not feel oily, nor leave marks on clothing.

Magnesium oil is not a massage oil as such, though you can certainly use it for a massage, combined with your normal massage oil. Note that used on areas like your back, you may experience some tingling.

Some people experience a tingle or even an itch the first few times they apply magnesium oil to their skin. There are a few theories as to why this is.​

  • Some people suggest that you’ll feel the tingle if your body is low in magnesium. This explains why you no longer feel the sensation when you use your oil every day.
  • It could be that, because magnesium is a vasodilator, it opens up the little blood vessels near the surface of your skin, and the sensation you feel is the blood rushing there.
  • Dermatologists think it may be because the pH of magnesium oil is different to that of our skin.
  • For people with sensitive skin, it could be that a slight salt residue triggers itchiness (magnesium chloride is a brine, like salt water). 

Whatever the cause, anecdotally, most people who experience it find the sensation disappears after using magnesium oil a few times.

If you’re not one of the ‘most’, there are some things you can do to combat the tingle so you can still get your magnesium top-up:

  • ​Apply your mag oil but rinse it off with a warm flannel after 15 minutes.
  • Apply it in the morning then shower off after 15 minutes.
  • Dilute your mag oil with pure or distilled water.
  • Apply a moisturising cream at the same time.

You can use it all over your body but please avoid sensitive areas, broken skin and your eyes.  Don’t apply to your legs after shaving (learned the hard way)!

People comment on the relief they feel when they apply magnesium oil directly to areas that are niggling them, like knees and ankles. If you sustain a sports injury, see if you can get some mag oil on the area even before you apply the ice.

A good place to rub in your mag oil is your feet as they seem to absorb it well, and seem less likely to experience the tingling.

If you’re experiencing menstrual cramps it can bring some relief to rub it into your abdomen.

Don’t apply your mag oil to areas that will be exposed to the sun as this can cause a sensitivity reaction.

This sounds counter-intuitive, but you can apply your magnesium oil in the morning, after your shower is good, to energise you for the day. And you can apply it at night to help you relax before sleeping. We recommend applying it to your feet just before bedtime to help you relax into sleep.

About 6 – 8 sprays works well. For example, spray 6 sprays into your cupped hands then massage into both your feet. Our body uses up our magnesium supplies quickly, especially when we’re active or feeling stressed. So it’s a great practice to apply your magnesium every day. You’ll feel better results with regular use. Your 150ml bottle should last you several months of daily use. With topical magnesium such as our oil, your body can self-regulate and will absorb only what it needs.

Your body will excrete any excess magnesium. 8 sprays will provide you with about 100mg of elemental magnesium. The daily recommendation is around 400mg. While taking too much oral magnesium can cause loose bowels, topical magnesium just seems to help keep you ‘regular’.

Yes, it’s fine for children to use our magnesium oil spray. Though see below for contraindications. A good idea is to start by using less and see how they respond. 

Yes, it’s safe to use magnesium oil while pregnant and breast-feeding. These are times when your body may well need more magnesium. Again, if you haven’t used magnesium oil on your skin before, it’s a good idea to start with a small amount and build up.

There are some contraindications for which you’d want to check with your health care provider before supplementing with magnesium:

  • Magnesium can lower blood pressure so, if you have low blood pressure or are taking medication to lower your blood pressure, this should be taken into consideration.
  • If you have an extremely slow heart rate, please be aware that magnesium, as a muscle-relaxant, can also cause your heart rate to slow further.
  • People with kidney failure or other kidney disorders should not use magnesium oil as it is a salt product. 
  • If you have regular insulin injections, please note that regular use of magnesium oil could lower the amount of injected insulin you require. It is imperative you check this with your healthcare provider.

    Highly recommended!
    This spray is nuts, I’ve tried s lot of different magnesium sprays and rubs and this is truly the only one that feels nice on the skin – there is no stickiness or drying out. Aside from that, it actually works! As a mum of two toddlers sleep is a very much valued thing and this really helps improve how deep I am sleeping. Even my skeptical husband is a huge fan now and we have just ordered more. Thank you for making your products so nice and for not sharing an arm and leg 🙂 – Katie M. Auckland, Auckland

    Great
    As someone who has absorption issues I thought it might be good to try transdermal magnesium as part of my recovery protocol. I’m a powerlifter and often have doms. Sleep is also important to me and I’m an axioms person by nature. So far I have definitely experienced benefits from using this product and I’m feeling good – Emma B. Omanawa, Bay Of Plenty

    We both felt the benefits
    I really liked how easy it was to rub in and left no greasy after effects.
    Both my flatmate and I were impressed. I purchased the lavender for him as he sleeps more poorly than I do, and he said he felt great. The only issue I had was the itchiness of my legs, which is where I rubbed the oil. I understand it can be a sign of low magnesium levels, but I won’t lie, it wasn’t pleasant!
    Overall a great product and so cost effective too. Will purchase again. – Aimee S.

    We love the SO Mg oil. A quick spray on our bumps or bruises seems to speed up healing. My mum keeps a bottle next to her bed to spray on her sore neck and shoulders at night after working at her computer all day. She swears by it. We all spray it on the soles of our feet before bed to help us sleep. – Selous R
