Use
Just warm baths themselves will help alleviate sore muscles, adding in a bath soak made to specifically target muscle aches will add even more relief. The scent of the clary sage and sea minerals will create a relaxing bath that will also lessen tension and speed muscle healing.
DOMS or also known as delayed-onset muscle soreness is the pain you get in your muscles a day or two after working out. If you have started a new workout routine or are working muscles you usually don't you will most likely experience DOMS as your muscles are healing. This soak would be great to help lessen those aches and pains.

The higher an ingredient is to the top the more potent it is in the formula, this means the Radox Muscle Soak Bath Therapy is mostly comprised of water, SLS which is the main ingredient in most body washes and soaps as a foaming cleansing agent, and salt. The rest of the ingredients afterward are more cleansing agents, preservatives, salt from the dead sea, dyes, and some synthetic fragrance and essential oils.
The reason they use dead sea salt in this bath soak is that it's known to have direct benefits for sore muscles. Like epsom salt, dead sea salt is only a small amount of actual salt and is comprised of mostly minerals. These minerals find their way into the muscles through the skin and help heal the muscles though replacing lost minerals in the muscles and in the body.
They advertise this as an all-natural product and give it a herbal natural scent but its actually far from it. If you are looking for a more natural alternative you can DIY your own by mixing epsom salts in water with a few drops of your favorite essential oils.
Precautions
Make sure to keep away from your eyes as face as the skin on your face is usually more delicate than the rest of your body and is more prone to sensitivities. The cleaning ingredients and the essential oil will burn if they come in contact with your eyes. If you get any in your eyes by accident make sure you flush with cold water until all of the bath soak is out.
Bottom Line
It's easy to use concentrated liquid formula means that there is no mess and fuss when preparing your bath and that the product is sure to last you a while even with frequent use. Just draw a hot bath, dump in a small amount of the bath soak in while the water is filling up and watch the bubbles form along with a pleasant aroma of clary sage and sea minerals.
The blue dye in the product is one of those things you either hate or really don't mind. If your skin is sensitive to synthetic dyes and fragrances this may be one to avoid but if not you can imagine a bright blue ocean that soaks your muscle pain away.
