Rem & Recover Mineral Spray FAQ's

Answering some common questions around our Rem & Recover Mineral Spray
-
How long does it take to work?
Typically it only takes a few minutes to feel the effects however if you are severely deficient it could take hours or days and sometimes even weeks to notice the effects. Use this spray twice a day to improve effectiveness.
-
Why is my skin tingling?
This is likely due to a deficiency in the total magnesium level in your body. We recommend letting your Doctor know so you can work out a plan to increase your magnesium levels in other ways. A dietician can also help with this.
-
How long should i leave the spray on?
You do not have to rinse it off, it can be left on for as long as you want. The longer the better so if you shower/bathe first then apply this maximizes absorption too.
-
Can I overdose on magnesium spray?
The higher levels of minerals when discussing total daily intake are more for ingestion and oral use and not so much for topical and transdermal applications.
-
My child has behaviours at night, will this help get him to sleep?
Yes! in fact the calming effects to muscles promotes a release of natural enzymes in the brain to help relax and sooth restlessness. We highly recommend using this for anyone who has trouble winding down before bed.
-
Where is the best place to spray for the most absorption?
As these minerals absorb into the blood stream, literally anywhere on the body is going to help. Avoid the groin, face and underarms as the skin in much thinner and there is no need to spray it there. The legs and major muscles have the best results.
-
It doesn't seem to be working, what am i doing wrong?
Don't fear! your body may have the right amount of minerals it needs and is not so fussed on the additional amounts you add with the spray. If you have only just begun using this it may be that your body is getting used to taking in the minerals in this manner. Give it a little more time and increase the amount of sprays to the areas you're using them on.
-
If I spray too much will I overdose on the magnesium?
Not at all. The dosage limits only apply to invasive intake such as tablets, drinks, supplement powders, intravenous (vein) or pessary usage. When magnesium and or sodium are applied topically or transdermal the body will only absorb what it needs and filter out the rest. You can spray R&R as often as you need during the day but be sure to give it a few hours between so it has time to fully penetrate the muscles.
-
How can I get the mag and sodium to work faster?
Well, ensuring the skin is clean and fresh, warming the area such as by having a shower or a nice bath and/or try to flex and move slightly. For example, for the calf muscles, gently roll your ankles and flex your feet for a few seconds before or after spraying. This stimulates the muscle fibers and soft tissue surrounding the joints.
-
Can I spray more than one area?
Yes! you can spray more than one area as you wish. We like to use the R&R on our lower back, abdomen and calf muscles to sooth some aches before we head to bed.
-
That tingle feeling doesn't happen all the time but it did the first time and then again maybe 3rd or 4th time, why is that?
So.. the tingle indicates your overall levels of the ingredients are low, as it absorbs the minerals the tingle goes away. If you are experiencing intermittent tingles then your levels on that day may be a little lower than last or it may be due to more demand required that day. You may find that you will benefit from daily use if intermittently you didn't get any tingles. You should still speak with your Doctor and see if all your electrolyte levels are stable, sometimes with one or two low it causes a struggle for the others to stay balanced.
-
OMG i sprayed it directly to my legs after shaving, it stings?
Yes! your pores are open and your skin is dry. Try applying the Nourishing Body Oil, serum or cream before applying the Rem & Recover. The sting will go away regardless but caring for the skin and pores first will help deter irritation. Here is your opportunity to use our GioventX :)
