Mira Kapoor recently highlighted the benefits of Magnesium Pool Thalassotherapy, a practice she credits for "dream sleep" and overall wellness. This hydrotherapy involves immersing oneself in highly saline, magnesium-rich pools, typically at around 37°C, which facilitates optimal magnesium absorption through the skin. Dermatologists Dr. Shweta Nakhawa and Dr. Shareefa Chause confirm that this treatment leverages magnesium chloride's calming and anti-inflammatory properties. When absorbed, magnesium helps relax muscles, alleviate joint pain, improve sleep quality, reduce stress, and can even promote skin hydration. It's particularly beneficial for those experiencing fatigue, anxiety, poor sleep, or muscle soreness, and may aid conditions like eczema or psoriasis under expert guidance. However, caution is advised for individuals with open wounds, infections, or certain heart conditions, who should consult a doctor prior. Experts emphasize limiting soak time (15-30 minutes), staying hydrated, ensuring safe magnesium concentrations in the pool, and rinsing off afterward. They also stress that while beneficial, this therapy complements, but does not replace, professional medical advice for managing health conditions.
