We are almost ready to go and try this in a session. But first, I always recommend experimenting on yourself first to get a direct feel on what the receiver will experience. If you are in a professional setting, of course get consent first and even sign a waiver if appropriate for your setting or practice.
The treatment is considered extremely safe, but we always pay close attention to detail. Side effects. if they occur, are usually limited to minor irritation or itching at the site of application. The body regulates magnesium (and slight excesses) quite well, so if you stay within the recommended dosages, everything will be fine.

For our magnesium oil spray, you have some latitude in dosage. You can experiment on yourself and others to see and experience the results. I use the magnesium spray once a day. I have heard of others using 3 times a day. In the treatment setting, you may do once a week (or as often as your client comes), or send them home with magnesium spray.
If an excess occurs, the kidneys will excrete it, and sometimes nausea and diarrhea will occur. An excess will not occur with one session or even daily sessions. Our recommended dosage, as stated in the video, is approx 20 sprays from a home style sprayer or 10-12 from our clinic model, per day or session.
Another way to determine dosage is to treat areas, like we did in the video. For instance, the back or the legs. Or pick a different area, the from of the legs, upper back, lower back, arms, etc. Spray enough to cover and massage in the area picked. Experiment and note the results on yourself and others to see what is best for you.
