For a feel-good way to show your body some love after that 45-60 minute gym or run session, create a post-workout ritual that includes a relaxing epsom salt bath.
Taking time to soothe, relax, and pamper helps your body bounce back even stronger. After all, it works hard for you, so why not give back a little?
How A Post-Gym Epsom Salt Bath Helps
For a truly soothing post-gym experience, ditch the shower and indulge in an epsom salt soak. Soaking your muscles allows them to rest and recover, while you relax and reflect on your workout, planning how to push yourself even further next time.
After your soak, you can always rinse off and continue with your usual shower routine, but with the added benefit of a clear mind and relaxed body.
At Better Bath Better Body, we have several soaks that work particularly well after a good run or gym session. These include:

How To Soak After A Run Or Gym Session
Transform your bathroom into a personal spa with a few simple steps. Set the mood by flickering candlelight around the tub. Let calming music fill the air as you prepare your warm bath ahead of time.
For ultimate comfort, keep a soft towel waiting beside the tub and gather your favorite bathtime essentials within reach. Stay hydrated by placing a bottle of water near the tub, or indulge with a glass of wine if that's your preference.
For a full-body soak, fill the tub with warm water –– avoid scalding temperatures! Once comfortably full, add ½ to 1 cup of your chosen Better Bath Better Body soak.
The salts dissolve quickly, so check the water temperature again before sinking in. Relax and unwind for 15-20 minutes of pure bliss.

Recharge and recover like a champion with a post-workout epsom salt bath. It's a simple yet powerful way to soothe sore muscles, ease tension, and prime your body for the next challenge.
