01

You’re Sweating Out More Than Water

Every mile you run, you lose magnesium through your sweat.

Electrolyte drinks usually focus on sodium. But magnesium is also lost in sweat, and it’s a mineral your muscles need for normal muscle function.

When you’re stacking mile after mile during a training block, supporting your body with magnesium can become an important part of your recovery routine.

You replace your fluids. Don’t forget your magnesium.

Cramps? Apply It Directly Where You Need It.

Calves. Quads. Hamstrings. Feet.

When tightness or occasional cramps hit, topical magnesium takes seconds to apply exactly where you want it.

Spray larger areas, use the roll-on for quick, targeted application, or massage in the magnesium cream for extra moisture and comfort.

Apply. Massage. Recover.

03

Recover Overnight. Wake Up Less Stiff.

Long runs can leave you feeling it the next morning.

Tired muscles, stiffness and post-run soreness can make even stairs feel like another workout.

Apply topical magnesium to your legs as part of your nighttime recovery routine to support muscle relaxation while you rest.

Recover tonight. Feel ready to move tomorrow.

No Pills, No Stomach Drama

Your recovery routine shouldn’t upset your stomach.

Oral magnesium can cause digestive discomfort for some people, particularly at higher supplemental doses, something most runners definitely don’t want to deal with before a long run or on race week.

Topical magnesium is applied to your skin, so there’s no capsule to swallow, powder to mix or another supplement hitting your stomach.

No pills. No powders. No complicated routine.

“Great for leg cramps”

“I’m a runner, and I don’t always hydrate appropriately after a long run. I used to wake up in the night with horrible cramps in my feet, lower legs and inner thighs. I’ve been using PURE Magnesium for about two weeks now, and I’ve been free of muscle cramps. I was a skeptic, but I’m a believer now!”

“I’m hooked”

“I recently started running again but I was fed up with sore muscles… I ran 5 miles yesterday, the farthest I’ve ran in months. Sprayed my legs down after my shower and no muscle soreness today! Just a little tight! I think I’m hooked!… Also absorbs quickly!”

“Relieves muscle tightness”

“Each time I went jogging/running my calves got really tight and sore even though I stretched… I have been doing this for over a month now and it has helped me tremendously… I would highly recommend this product for similar treatment.”

“It works quickly. Super easy. Spray & rub in!”

“I exercised on my treadmill yesterday… my lower legs were aching so bad… I sprayed it all over my calves and feet. Within minutes I could feel the magnesium starting to work… About a half hour later my legs felt completely relaxed… I zonked out right away and slept great through the night, 8 hours.”

“Soreness savior!”

“I love this for pre or post workout relief… My hamstring once was in the very edge of a Charlie Horse and I rubbed this on, about 3-4 minutes later it was totally relieved… This is a product that is a necessity for me!”

“Best Magnesium Oil Spray, works right away!”

“This spray doesn’t leave my leg or calf feeling oily, but works immediately… I actually tried both one night when both of my calves starting cramping. 7 Minerals worked immediately, the other one… didn’t.”

Frequently Asked Questions

The things runners ask most before their first bottle.

Why does topical magnesium sometimes tingle?

A mild tingling sensation can happen, especially during the first few uses or when applying magnesium oil to sweaty, freshly shaved or irritated skin.

If you’re new to topical magnesium, try a small amount first. Avoid broken or freshly chafed skin.

Should I use topical magnesium before or after running?

Many runners incorporate topical magnesium into their post-run cooldown and again as part of their nighttime routine.

For example, apply the spray to larger areas after your run, use the roll-on when you want more targeted application, or massage in the cream before bed.

As with any new product, try it during training before making it part of your race-day routine.

Which topical magnesium product should I use?

It depends on the moment, which is exactly why we created the complete routine.

Spray: Great for quickly covering larger areas.

Roll-On: Great for targeted, mess-free application and travel.

Cream: Great when you want magnesium combined with massage and moisture.

You can use one or rotate between all three depending on your routine.

Is Magnesium Oil actually an oil?

Despite the name, Magnesium Oil isn’t a traditional oil. It’s a concentrated solution of magnesium chloride and water.

That means you get the easy application of a topical product without the heavy, greasy feeling of a traditional body oil.

Can I use topical magnesium alongside my electrolytes or supplements?

Many people incorporate both into their routines.

If you’re already taking magnesium supplements, taking medications or have a medical condition, speak with your healthcare provider about what’s appropriate for you.

What if it’s not for me?

You’re covered by our 90-day money-back guarantee.

If you’re not happy with your Seven Minerals products, you can request a refund according to our guarantee terms.

Caution: No one with kidney failure should use any magnesium products. If you are on dialysis or if your doctor has issued warnings against supplements of any kind, magnesium oil should not be used. If you have low heart rates, please consult your doctor before use, as magnesium relaxes your body. Not for internal use. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes, freshly shaved areas, and cuts. If you have kidney failure or are pregnant, consult your doctor before use. If irritation, redness, or discomfort occurs, discontinue use.
