Going to an airport, knowing you’ll soon be on your way to a new destination is an exciting feeling we just can’t get enough of. With diverse cultures, landscapes and adventures on offer, travelling is a thrilling experience. But on the flipside, it can be physically demanding and exhausting for your body and mind. The good news is there are tools to support our bodies through these transitions. If there is one thing you can’t forget when travelling (besides your passport), it’s the magic mineral magnesium. From combating jet lag to reducing stress and relieving muscle tension, magnesium deserves a prime spot in your travel kit. Ready to travel smart? Let’s go!
Wave goodbye to jetlag
If you’re crossing multiple time zones, chances are jetlag will be knocking at your door. Using magnesium can help to reset your body’s internal clock, which will ease the symptoms of jetlag like disorientation and exhaustion. This powerful mineral is responsible for regulating melatonin production, which is essential for sleep-wake cycles. Our Roll On Magnesium Oil is perfect for popping in your carry-on bag, designed in convenient 15ml bottles. We recommend applying to your temples during your flight to help promote deeper, more restful sleep on board. This will allow you to adjust to new time zones quicker and wake up feeling refreshed and ready to explore.
Stress less
We all know how overwhelming airports (hello delays), long flights and busy itineraries can be, especially in unfamiliar places. Magnesium is your go-to in times of stress and worry. Renowned for its natural calming abilities, this essential mineral aids in regulating the nervous system and supporting serotonin production to promote relaxation and reduce anxiety. Before take-off and during your time away, use our handy Travel Magnesium Oil Spray to replenish magnesium levels and feel your best. Simply spritz on your feet (2 to 4 sprays) or to your stomach (4 to 6 sprays) if you’ve been using magnesium regularly. It'll be your best travel companion – we promise!
In transit tension be gone
Sitting for extended periods on long flights or by car on a road trip can leave your body feeling worse for wear. Muscle cramps and stiffness are a common occurrence, as your posture is often compromised and you don’t have the opportunity to move around much. Once again, magnesium to the rescue! Topical magnesium provides fast-acting relief by relaxing tense muscles, reducing soreness and promoting overall relaxation. A versatile, high concentrated solution to soothe sore muscles is Salt Lab’s Magnesium Muscle Repair Cream. Pack in your luggage and apply it directly to affected areas when you’re feeling tense. Rub in and allow to dry, then you’re ready to go!
Happy tummies
Travel can wreak havoc on digestion due to changes in diet and introducing new foods, as well as dehydration and altered daily routines. Keep your digestion in check and avoid dreaded constipation by incorporating topical magnesium into your travel ritual.
The magic mineral relaxes the intestines and draws water into the bowels, preventing blockages and promoting healthy digestion. Our best-selling Magnesium Oil Spray is available in an adult’s and kid’s formula to ensure your whole family feels good on your adventures. To replenish magnesium levels, simply spritz on feet (2 to 4 sprays) or to the stomach (4 to 6 sprays) if you’ve been using magnesium regularly.
Magnesium isn’t just a nice to have, it’s a non-negotiable for smart travellers who want to feel their best and enjoy the journey - whether it’s jet-setting to Europe or a family cruise to the islands. Just don’t leave home without it!
