TOP Relief for Night Leg Cramps and Charlie Horses!

Spa and Bath Line Company- found the recipe for leg cramp relief

Laura Thomas, owner of Castle Baths; developed her spa and bath line ALL because of her very own traumatic charlie horses she received during her own pregnancy after consulting with her doctors on how to find relief.

Today Laura in in her early fifties and still uses these same methods, because today she gets muscle spams due to her MS (Multiple Sclerosis) "Nothing beats or offers relief, as a good soak in the tub with lavender dead sea salts," shares Laura.

What to do if you already have a leg cramp:
How to Prevent Charlie Horses during Pregnancy

If you do get a cramp, immediately stretch your calf muscles: Straighten your leg, heel first, and gently flex your toes back toward your shins. It might hurt at first, but it will ease the spasm and the pain will gradually go away. You can relax the cramp by massaging the muscle or warming it with a hot-water bottle. Walking around for a few minutes may help, too.

Top tips to AVOID FUTURE leg cramps during Pregnancy!

Make certain all of your mineral levels are in balance- ask your doctor to check Magnesium, Potassium and Calcium levels- along with your vitamin D.

Ask your doctor if you need to increase your B family of vitamins and or Zinc.

Massage your legs (calf's) immediately after being on your feet for any long length of time- using a dead sea mineral cream or dead sea massage oil will help future attacks tremendously in order to help reduce your active leg cramps. If you've been walking on concrete floors- this too may be a reason to your leg cramps.

Soak before retiring for the evening in a mineral rich herbal salt bath tea such as the Castle Baths lavender mineral bath tea, known as Sweet Communion, which was created for owner Laura Thomas personal leg cramp relief.

And we can't recommend enough- the perfect use of NIH studies, "Lavender" Dead seas bath salt soak each evening before bed. We actually feel combining the dead sea salt soak with the herbal bath tea is the perfect solution to help decrease charlie horses and offer great relief! Not only will you be helping to increase the beneficial circulation - but also in feeding the skin (which happens to be the largest organ of your body) - therefore absorbing right at the muscle- what the muscle desires!

***Always take the appearance of leg cramps seriously, as in some cases the pain could actually be caused by a blood clot. Blood clots require immediate medical care. Blood clots are more common during pregnancy. The symptoms to watch for are constant pain and swelling. Leg cramps tend to come and go and they are not accompanied by swelling.

Did you know? Proof is in the pudding:-)

"Dale, A., Cornwell, S. (1994). The role of lavender oil in relieving perineal discomfort following childbirth: A blind randomized clinical trial. Journal of Advanced Nursing, 19:89-96.

The single-blind clinical trial randomized 635 mothers into three groups using pure lavender oil, a synthetic lavender oil, and an inert substance as a bath additive respectively for 10 days following normal childbirth. The analysis results of daily discomfort scores showed no statistically significant difference between groups. However, women using pure lavender oil as a bath additive had lower mean discomfort scores between the 3rd and 5th days, when the mother usually experienced the highest discomfort."
