2. HOW TO USE THE SALT ROCKS AT HOME
BATHE:
Place one salt rock into a warm bath and bathe in the salt water for a minimum of 20 minutes. It takes this amount of time for your body to absorb the minerals so you must bathe for at least 20 minutes to gain the full benefits. The minerals will help induce sleep and relaxation, gently cleanse and soften the skin and relieve any muscular aches and pains. Skin will be left feeling silky smooth and remineralised. If you bathe for 20 minutes, one rock will last 3 – 4 baths.
FOOT SOAK:
Add one salt rock to a foot spa or bowl of warm water to help relieve tired, swollen and achy feet. This is a great way to get minerals into the body, especially if you’re unable to take a bath. Massage over the feet and lower leg with the salt rock to help reduce swelling. For maximum benefits and total relaxation, soak your feet for 20 minutes.
MASSAGE:
Heat a salt rock and massage over any stiff, aching muscles or joints. Heat one salt rock in a microwave for 30 seconds. We recommend placing a paper towel under the rocks when warming them, to collect any salt residue. Once heated seal with an oil and massage over any areas of tension. It’s important to seal the salt rocks as they are a natural product and can sometimes feel a little rough on the skin. The oil will help to smooth the rock and leave your skin feeling silky soft.
The combination of heat and minerals will help get deep into the muscles and relieve any aches and pains. To truly benefit from the massage, ask a partner/family member to massage over your aching muscles using light massage movements. Take care when working around any bony areas.

TO HEAL MINOR CUTS & GRAZES, CONGESTION AND BLEMISHES:
The salt rocks can be used on areas of congestion, blemishes, minor cuts and grazes as they contain both antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. They help to gentle cleanse and heal the skin. Dampen one salt rock and lightly massage one salt rock over the affected area. As this product is 100% natural salt, you may experience slight discomfort when you first apply to the skin. This is completely normal however if you feel too much discomfort then you can remove the salt residue with warm water. Avoid using on large cuts and open wounds.
