BetterYou Magnesium Body Gel | Pure, Clean, and Natural Source of Magnesium Chloride | Transdermal Magnesium Body Gel | for Use On Joints and Muscles | 150ml

It definitely works. Within minutes of applying my aches just disappeared. I use the oil too.

Yes, this is sticky when applied, but if yoy apply a small amount and apply it over a larger area it is not so bad, but also, it takes about 20 - 60 minutes for the magnesium to be absorbed, and then after that, you just wash the excess off. Apply sparingly. Not too much as that is a waste of gel. I apply mine on my shoulder muscles in the morning and after 1 hour of prayer, I wash the residue off. In the afternoon, again, but on the inside of my forearm, leave it hile I watch a film, then wash off the residue. Then again in the evening, while watching a film or youtube. I wash the residue off before I go to bed. If you are going out or to bed, then don't apply it then. Just an hour before. This gets absorbed into the blood stream through the skin cells and it takes about 12 weeks to feel the effect fully, according to their site. This is definitely worth it. Try applying Aloe vera on top of it to help.

I felt like this really worked on my very stiff neck and shoulder muscles. After suffering for a few days with intensely sore and tight muscles this seemed to work almost instantly! Sometimes it stung a bit on more sensitive skin around my neck nut not sure if that was this or that id been putting on loads of pain relief gel before it!

This for me this is a cross between deep heat and deep freeze without the nasty smell, it is as effective as them.it is easy to use and seems to be good quality but definitely not a permanent fix more a temporary relief which is worth it.

Very useful for lower back pain. Relaxes quickly. No stickiness, smell, reaction or tingling like others have commented. Highly recommend.

Why did you choose this product over others?:I love this product, because if I apply 2 or 3 doses it feels like a low dose of Valium, without any of the dangers. They say that magnesium is 'nature's tranquilizer.' When I take magnesium capsules/tablets, I don't get the same effect so for me it absorbs very well through the skin. Tablets are only good for constipation in my case! The caveat is that some people won't get on with this as it can potentially irritate the skin. I don't have a problem though. It helps my restless legs syndrome, relaxes me in the evening and seems to slightly improve my sleep quality.

This product really irritated my skin, it felt tingly then itchy and I broke out in spots on the third use. Only try if you do not suffer from sensitive or spot prone skin. It’s also very sticky!

Brilliant
