Give your sore muscles a little TLC with this soothing bath soak. Made with magnesium rich epsom salt, calming chamomile, and pain-relieving eucalyptus, this sore muscle bath soak is especially effective for aching pregnancy hips, postpartum healing, or post-workout muscle fatigue.

Soaking in warm water and epsom salt, which contains magnesium sulfate, relaxes tense and sore muscles and promotes healing. Want to double up the magnesium rich fun? Sip on this extra chocolatey hot cocoa! 

Add 1/2 cup of this sore muscle bath soak to running warm bath water, then stir to dissolve the salts. Be careful getting in and out of the tub! Epsom salts make the tub very slippery. Put on some good music or your favorite audible book and soak for at least 15 minutes.
