What are haemorrhoids?

Haemorrhoid cushions are present in our anal canal within which lies a small network of blood vessels. These vessels can swell up under great pressure and strain, which is usually the case when a person becomes constipated and constant straining occurs. The swelling of blood vessels, either occurring within the anal canal, or outside, is referred to as the medical condition known as haemorrhoids. Usually, haemorrhoids are not a serious health problem and may be easily dealt with using natural treatment methods.

Why use epsom salts to treat haemorrhoids?

Epsom Salt is actually not a salt, but a mineral compound in its purest form, with magnesium and sulphate being its main ingredients. Both magnesium and sulphate are absorbed through the skin and hence has numerous health benefits when used in its natural form.  It is also used in beauty treatments as well as household and gardening applications.

Magnesium helps to regulate body enzymes that lessen hardening of blood vessels to help improve function of the muscles and nerve fibres. Also helps to decrease inflammation.

Sulphates can help in absorption of nutrients and eliminate toxic substances.
