Many are starting to discover the wonders of taking an epsom salt bath, and with the many things you can epsom salt for, it is no wonder that it has also become an essential part of people’s relaxation rituals even beyond the bath.
Epsom salts can help you relax in your own way, giving you the perfect kind of self-pampering that you deserve. There are other great ways to make the most out of your Better Bath Better Body bath salts.
Here are some amazing ideas for you to try:
-
Foot Soak - Give your feet a relaxing treat by using your epsom salt for foot soaks. Our feet are often neglected despite receiving a lot of stress from a long day.
They carry us around and all over the place until you hit the hay. It is not a bad idea to reward them with a soak.
Preparing an epsom foot soak is also quick and easy. Simply fill up a clean basin with warm water, make sure that the temperature is comfortable to the touch, and mix in your aromatic epsom salts.
Dip your feet into the water up to your ankles and let them soak there for 10-15 minutes. While you’re at it, you can max the spa-like experience by reading a book, listening to music, or simply leaning back against your chair.

Sitz Soak - Sitz baths are great for new mothers, helpful for people suffering from hemorrhoids, and simply relaxing for anyone who wants to try them. A sitz bath concentrates on your perineum area and can bring instant relief.
You can use a special sitz tub that fits perfectly in your toilet set, a clean and shallow basin, or your regular bathtub with just enough water to soak your private area. The warm water for sitz baths can already be cool and calming, but adding in our epsom salts makes the experience a hundred percent better.
Our Sitz Bath Soak at Better Bath Better Body is made with pure essential oils that provide relaxing aromatherapy every time you use them. It is also a hemorrhoid-soothing soak to help soothe the burning sensation, itching, and pain that comes with this ailment.
While taking a sitz bath, you can also take this time to clear your head and relax your entire body. Think of happy memories and unwind. Sitz baths have many relaxing benefits.
3. Hand Wash - Your hands also need to be spoiled from time to time, and using epsom salts as an alternative to your traditional hand soaps is an effortless way to do it.
Washing and scrubbing your hands with bath soaks will leave your hands feeling light and fresh. The natural essential oils will also make your hands smell incredible.
So make sure to gently rub the salts on your skin and in between your fingers to give your hands an all-around pampering.
4. Pet Bath - Who says your pets can’t enjoy a good and relaxing bath too? It is time to share the joys of bathing using epsom salts with your furry friends.
If you have a dog or cat around, try giving them a bath with these soaks and see how this can be your new favorite relaxation bonding time. Preparing an epsom bath for your pets is also just as easy as preparing for your own.
You will only need a shallow basin or a bathtub filled with just enough water for them to sit and soak comfortably. Entertain your pets with rubs, ear scratches, treats, or their favorite toys to keep them occupied and avoid drinking the bath water.
When selecting a bath soak, it is also advisable to use mild scents like lavender because our pets’ sense of smell is more sensitive than ours. Be sure to gently rub their fur, paws, and their other body parts to give them the ultimate spa treatment. Your pets deserve lots of love, too!
5. Face Mask - You do not always have to go for a full-body dip in the tub to enjoy the calming effects of epsom soaks with aromatherapy. In fact, you can add these soaks to your quick self-care routine by turning them into face masks.
You can create a simple lather with water or mix them with your favorite facial wash to amplify the soothing effect and enjoy the aroma of its essential oils.
