Can I use Epsom Salt in the shower?

Question

I know it's good for long baths but what if I want to use it in the shower? Is that possible? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Epsom salt gives benefit for joint pains and other rheumatic pains when used in warm water and body soaked in it for a period of time.  Shower cannot bestow that benefit.

Answer 2

Yes you can, but to what use. The skin has to absorb the salt and that would be pretty hard mission to accomplish.

Answer 3

Nope.  Not possible at all.  If you do, your head might explode.  Simple physics.

Answer 4

VB, I disagree with the other answer, you most soak in a tub of water for epsom salts to work effectivley on the sore, sprained, whatever the ach, you need to soak it , the shower will just wash off like soap.
