Magnesium- either for a soak in the tub or for horses has numerous benefits. Horses need magnesium for muscle function nervous system health, and metabolic processes. An 1100 pound horse requires about 7.5 grams daily. If forage is not enough, supplementation is often recommended for high-stress, performance, or deficient horses.
For us smaller mammals-the difference. between a bath with epsom salts versus magnesium is surprisingly significant.
Magnesium chloride flakes (available here in three scents) provide faster, deeper, absorption of magnesium to relieve muscle tension and promote relaxation compared to Epson salts.

Here are some suggested tips that can help your horse’s muscle relax and recover after an afternoon ride or competition.
Suggested Procedure* from some horse owners in Australia.
Suggested Use for Feed: Dissolve 3 tbsp in 15 oz of water Put 2 tsp of dissolved magnesium solution onto the feed twice a day Increase every three days the dosage by 1 tsp per feeding until you reach 8 tsp. If your horse's manure is softened at any time, back off a dosage until the bowels have built up a tolerance. Slowly add magnesium to your horse's diet to avoid scouring. if your horse is not showing any signs of loose manure, you can continue to increase the dosage as before. After a month on magnesium, your horse may have loose manure. That is a sign that your horse is receiving more magnesium than needed. Reduce the dosage to the previous level.
Suggested Use for Hoof Soak: Add 1/4 c of magnesium flakes into a bucket with two gallons of warm water. Soak the hoof for 15 min and then let stand for 5 minutes. Rinse off the hoof with warm water.
Suggested Use for Bath: Add 1 c of magnesium flakes into a 5 gallon bucket of warm water. While the flakes dissolve, hose your horse off. Scrap any water off your horse. Soak a sponge into the solution and apply all along your horse's back, withers, hind end, and legs. Let is soak for 20 minutes. Wash off with warm water.
*Suggested use from horse owners from Australia. Please consult your vet before using any new products on your horse.
