Does using epison salts in a bath help with aches and pains?

I have arthritis in my hips and want to know if this will help at all.Does using epison salts in a bath help with aches and pains?
Epsom salts in a warm but not scalding bath are wonderful for aches and pains. Doing this nightly will help you sleep better. Your Biggest problem will be getting in and out of the tub safely. Have you installed handrails? And be sure and put something in the tub to prevent you from slipping as you get in, and an anti-slip rug for when you get out.


While you are in the tub, try to do some stretching exercises and a bit of mild exercises while your body muscles are warm. The more strength you can put in your muscles, the easier it will be to get in and out of the tub safely. But heat and warmth, especially in these cold months, will help you much more than a hot shower.Does using epison salts in a bath help with aches and pains?
A lot of people use Epsom salts to help alleviate body pains. They usually soak in it or add it in their baths.
