5. Reduces Inflammation Naturally
Chronic inflammation is a common issue with aging, leading to joint pain, fatigue, and more. Magnesium has anti-inflammatory effects, and many people report reduced swelling and discomfort after regular Epsom salt soaks.

Staying active is crucial after 60, but sore muscles can slow you down. Epsom salt reduces muscle stiffness and promotes faster recovery — perfect after walking, gardening, stretching, or exercise.
