• Gentle on sensitive skin; clean, skin-nourishing oils & butters
• Optimized for skin comfort & contact time—an occlusive balm that stays where you put it for easy, targeted application
• Non-greasy feel; no “magnesium oil sting” or drips
• Doctor-developed by a neurologist & ultra-runner; made in the USA

What it is (and how parents use it)

Magnesium Balm for Kids is a topical, kid-friendly balm often used as part of a nightly routine to help little bodies relax. Parents typically massage a pea-sized amount into feet and calves 10–20 minutes before bed. Consistency is key—think bath → balm → book.

How to apply (quick guide)

1. Patch test first on the inner forearm; wait 24 hours.
2. Massage a pea-sized amount per leg into feet & calves before bed. *A little goes a long way - massage in until completely absorbed.
3. Use after sports or big-activity days for anytime comfort.
4. Start small and increase as tolerated.
5. Avoid eyes, mouth, and broken or irritated skin. Keep out of reach of small children.

Why a balm? (vs. spray, lotion, gummies)

Parents often ask whether a magnesium balm, lotion, or spray is better for kids. While research on transdermal magnesium is mixed, a balm offers practical wins: it feels non-sting, doesn’t drip, and its occlusive texture supports skin hydration and contact time—so you can massage it exactly where your child needs comfort (feet, calves, thighs). Sprays can tingle and run; thin lotions can disappear quickly. Choose the format your child tolerates best and what fits your nightly rhythm.

Size guide (helpful estimates)

• 8oz Jar: ~5–6 months for one child (pea-size per leg, nightly)
• 2.5oz Twist-Up: ~2–3 months nightly; great for backpacks & travel
• 0.5oz Mini: ~2 weeks; perfect trial or on-the-go “pocket calm”

Usage varies by child size and frequency.

FAQs (for parents & search)

Is magnesium lotion safe for kids?
Designed for topical, kid-friendly use on intact skin. Always patch test, avoid eyes/mouth and broken skin, and consult your pediatrician for toddlers, skin conditions, kidney concerns, medications, or complex sleep issues.

Does magnesium balm help kids sleep?
Many families find it helpful as part of a consistent bedtime routine (bath → balm → book). Consider it gentle comfort and routine support rather than a medical sleep treatment.

Where do you apply magnesium lotion for kids?
Most common: feet and calves. Some families also use thighs or shoulders depending on what feels soothing.

How often can kids use it?
Most families use it nightly; some add post-sports use. Start small and adjust. Discontinue if redness or irritation occurs.

Does a magnesium balm absorb better than sprays or lotions?
No format has been definitively proven superior. A balm’s occlusive base can improve skin feel, hydration, and contact time, which many families prefer—especially for kids who dislike the sting of sprays. Think comfort + routine first; pick the format your child will actually enjoy using.
