Magnesium is known to improve mood and sleep quality and assist with stress and relaxation. Studies show magnesium is best absorbed via the skin, which is why EpZen products contain the unique combination of pure magnesium and 100 per cent natural essential oils. The company’s high-quality range of body care products enables consumers to get micro-moments of calm in their stressful, fast-paced and busy lives.
EpZen is Australian owned, paraben-free, vegan friendly and the company does not test on animals. It is based on magnesium sulphate and natural fragrances and as such contains no animal-derived ingredients. EpZen is also certified as 100 per cent Low CO2 by the Carbon Reduction Institute and offsets 100 per cent of its operational emissions, making it an environmentally safe product.
All EpZen products include a unique combination of magnesium and 100 per cent natural essential oils.
Health and wellbeing benefits
Magnesium provides a multitude of health and wellbeing benefits. Five ways in which magnesium can improve your wellbeing include:
1 Improves sleep quality
2 Relieves muscle tension
3 Soothes headaches and migraines
4 Aids post-exercise recovery
5 Reduces inflammation
While magnesium is present in people’s diets through leafy greens, fish, nuts and wholegrains, many people are deficient in this essential mineral. Supplementing magnesium can provide an array of physical health benefits that will boost your overall sense of wellbeing. The best way to do this is transdermally (through the skin). Spritzing a magnesium oil spray, massaging a magnesium lotion or soaking in a magnesium bath allows magnesium to absorb through the epidermis straight into the body. This is the most efficient way to supplement magnesium as it bypasses the digestive system and gets straight to work.
Aromatherapy has been practised for centuries to calm, heal and energise the body and mind. Using essential oils works on two levels to promote wellbeing. First, it encourages people to breathe deeply as they inhale a desired scent. When you do this, a soothing wave washes over you and you become mindful and centred. Second, essential oils, like all scents, are detected in the olfactory bulb (the smell receptor in our brain) which is located close to other cerebral areas that regulate our emotions. This link between scent and emotions is the basis of aromatherapy to improve mood and enhance wellbeing.
The 100 per cent natural essential oils used in the EpZen range are carefully selected for their individual healing properties as well as their synergistic benefits. The outcome is a calmer, clearer, more beneficial mood state and a happier you.
The blends
EpZen essential oils are combined into three different wellbeing blends: Relax (perfect to help ease stress and tension), Soothe (ideal for promoting calmness and emotional balance) and Sleep (the perfect way to melt your worries away as you drift off to the land of nod).
