Your body gives you feedback, so use as much as it takes to feel the difference. Generally speaking, the more stress one is under, the greater the body’s needs for magnesium replenishment.

The story of how Elektra Magnesium® started, 
born out of Sandy's health crisis of 2007-2008.
An Australian family's success in getting magnesium in via skin - pleasantly!

I was told by my cardiologist years ago to, "Put up with it like everyone else. We have no treatment for you because your blood pressure is too low, and if we give you heart slowing drugs they could give you a heart attack. Your heart structure is normal and vascular system is clear." He added, "You would be surprised how many other people have this problem. It's just a twitch in the left ventricle of your heart, like a twitch in the eye."

My chronic fatigue and heart arrhythmias, associated with Hashimotos hypothyroidism, were unbearable. 2007 and 2008 were also my menopause years. I was not willing to 'just put up with it'. There had to be a better way to manage these symptoms I thought. I scoured the internet and found books about magnesium citing research that spanned decades. It showed that magnesium is essential for the electrical nervous system, and that we lose it excessively under stress conditions. Magnesium is fundamental to mitochondrial metabolism, which is why so much can go wrong without it. It's like having power outages and brownouts to any body organ system. Under stress we pee out excessive amounts and if we are not putting it back to replenish stores we start to get magnesium deficiency symptoms. Well, I thought, that sounds like me. My previous job as a magazine editor involved too many deadlines and overnight vigils to get to print on time. I had truly worn myself out and felt constantly exhausted.

The biggest stumbling block for me however was getting enough magnesium supplementation to fill my tank. I couldn't digest food very well due to stress and vagus nerve dysfunction, and I certainly wasn't getting anything out of my handful of multi vitamin and mineral tablet supplements. I was already eating a fresh food balanced diet and avoiding the sugar and chemicals. Difficulty with digestion is one of the hallmarks of Hypothyroidism. It seemed like a Catch-22 dilemma: To recover the thyroid issue required more nutrition, but the thyroid problem caused digestive issues.

Then, after reading Marc Sircus's book Transdermal Magnesium, I ordered in an expensive product from Europe (as Australia didn't have any magnesium chloride for sale in any shop at that time) and discovered the benefits of magnesium chloride salt bathing, which bypasses the digestive system. It helped me recover my energy and resilience so that my coping capacity with stress improved greatly. I started to sleep better and feel stronger and stronger from the inside out, with my heart arrhythmias dissipating in increments over a six month period. I recovered without medications, but I had to get a lot of magnesium into me (which is impossible with oral supplements because the body poops most of it out before it can pass across the gut wall).

Eventually I found pure natural (food grade certified) magnesium chloride salt from the Tibetan plateau after a series of 'happenstances', but it was not available in any less than a container load amount. I checked and found that the harvested Australian magnesium chloride salt was made mainly from desalination wastes, so it was industrial grade (okay for pool salt and fertilizer etc), and not suitable for the high standard that I was aiming at. That's when I realised that we needed to bring this life saving mineral to Australia and make transdermal magnesium available for others. I kept hearing the voice of my cardiologist in my head saying that many others had this problem. So we had a sample of the food grade flakes lab-tested and subsequently imported our first container load, had it packaged and started selling magnesium flakes in late 2008.

One day, as I was applying my daily moisturiser, I looked at my hands and in a lightbulb moment wondered, what if we could put magnesium into a body cream for convenient daily use. I found it hard in my busy life to keep up with daily magnesium soaks, but my body needed magnesium top-up every day. After extensive Google searches in 2009 we found that there were no dermal magnesium products using magnesium chloride. None anywhere in the world.

Thanks to my talented hubby Peter Sanderson, who happened to be a trained food technology chemist, we achieved what many had thought was not possible. We were pioneers in 2009, and committed to developing potent magnesium products without synthetic chemical additives (ie. no dimethicone, no phenoxyethanol, no oxybenzoates, no pthalates, no GMO ingredients etc). It all had to be plant food providing nutrition to feed the body transdermally. Consulting chemists had told us that we couldn't bypass the use of chemicals in order to emulsify the cream with such a high salt content, and that at best all we would get is a liquid, but not cream viscosity. However, I had faith that we were being guided spiritually to develop solutions for many others. A high-fat buttery cream was also important for my dry skin condition (connected to low thyroid). I kept visualising a magical magnesium cream to use all over the body, and after a series of unusual events (and a few mistakes), we stumbled across the right set of processes, a non-standard protocol, to bring it all together without the petrochemicals. Herbal Magnesium Cream was our first magnesium moisturiser, and it took off.

Within a few months we were getting reports from customers that it was helping to normalise their skin after years of rashes, eczema or psoriasis. We had no idea that it could do this at the outset. What a blessing it turned out to be. Naturopaths were also sending in case studies. All were amazed. It is still our number one selling product referred by clinicians. Even the leading heart surgeon at St Vincent's hospital called me personally to thank me for producing Herbal Magnesium Cream because it resolved her dermatitis that had persisted for years. She said it was the only cream that had worked for her and she was recommending it to all the other doctors and nurses plagued with dermatitis from constant scrubbing and hand sanitizers.

Elektra Magnesium® was the first brand in the world to develop a Magnesium Cream Moisturizer with a potent strength that could be absorbed well without an icky sticky irritating residue. The skin just loves to suck it up. From there we developed different varieties of Magnesium Cream, as well as Magnesium Oil Spritz and Magnesium Charge Lotion with different strengths for various needs and skin types - and all without chemicals.

Whilst the main benefit of magnesium skincare use is the ease and convenience of getting a significant amount of magnesium supplementation without digestion, the bonus is exquisite antiaging skin care benefits (and only five minutes to rub in your moisturizer all over your body). The brilliance of using the skin layer to hold magnesium in reserve (using the good fats), is that it not only plumps up the skin so that it looks younger, but the body can draw from this reservoir at its own pace the exact amount required. You can never overdose this way because the body is in control of uptake, and the magnesium isn't wasted either. Try Elektra Magnesium®: I'm sure you will be pleasantly surprised with the results.

THE TRANSDERMAL MAGNESIUM REVOLUTION IS HERE

Magnesium is the number one mineral electrolyte with the biggest impact on energy and metabolism, as mitochondria must have it to make ATP (adenosine triphosphate) - our electrical energy currency.
RELAX ~ RECHARGE ~ RECOVER

Exquisite Quality of Ingredients - all Natural and Organic (chem-free)

There is a growing awareness sweeping the planet about the benefits of transdermal magnesium via natural magnesium chloride salt products. Magnesium is used by the body every second and with every breath and beat of your heart. We need it to drive our electrical system and so many other biological processes. It is as important as water is to life. If you want your cells to plug into energy, you need magnesium for that.
We are proud to have been part of this massive wave as the pioneer company to promote and supply food grade magnesium chloride products to Australia since 2008. Elektra Magnesium® brand was the first to introduce transdermal magnesium products to Australia. Our range is made with natural and organic plant oils, butters and extracts (chem-free and no petroleum based ingredients), which are infused with quality food grade magnesium chloride salts. Our magnesium chloride flakes are tested in Australia, and at parts per billion show no mercury nor lead content. That's a really 'clean' top quality salt! There is only about 15% of the planets' harvested magnesium chloride which is certified food grade. The rest is industrial grade, and a lot cheaper. However, we believe it's well worthwhile to only use the best for healthy lifestyle. Your cells after all, are a product of what goes in.
From these prized magnesium chloride flakes we make the most luxurious magnesium skin care products, including four kinds of Magnesium Cream. This nutritious moisturiser is a skin conditioner, deodorant, massage cream and magnesium supplement all rolled into one. It's gentle enough for babies and children too! Magnesium Charge Lotion was formulated for massage of tense muscles and joints, or for exercise recovery. Our skin-friendly Magnesium Oil Spritz delivers the strongest dose of magnesium with a velvet feel and aroma of fresh mandarins. Any of the products can be combined in any amount, depending on individual needs.
Elektra Magnesium® products are designed to be a beautiful natural skin care support, relaxing muscle care, and a superior magnesium delivery system as well. We need magnesium daily and foods are not delivering enough magnesium these days to help us replenish as needed - especially under conditions of high stress. If we like how a product feels and smells, as well as how well it absorbs from the surface of the skin, then we are more likely to use it daily as a body care product and a rich source of vital natural magnesium. It's nutritious, easy and convenient to use Elektra Magnesium® products every day. They work fast and they work well to support your healthy lifestyle, and they offer the best value-for-money magnesium products because, "We give you more..."

The Meaning Behind the Elektra Magnesium® Brand and the Elektra Mythos Connection with the Greek Goddess Elektra (read more)

Integration of the circular element is symbolic of the earth and its sentient life force. Magnesium is a natural earth element and we are connected to the earth’s elements through Elektra Magnesium® products. The earth symbolism is reflected further through the visualisation of the water element being held by the circle. We are reminded of our greater sense of belonging, ‘completeness’ and integration of the elements of the earth.
The essence of water mirrors the symbolism of the circle. The circle expresses exhalation of the godhead. It has no beginning, no end. It is the alpha and the omega, the omnipotent and omnipresent. The conventional sign for the sun and gold is the circle. The human head of Elektra, also reflective of the roundness of the Universe, symbolises the striving for self knowledge and spiritual attainment (gnosis), which is, “the Light that shines without shadow, and indescribable joy, and unutterable jubilation.”
Elektra was the ancient Greek goddess of lightening and thunder. She represents the electrical energy that fuels all life. Emerging from the earth’s centre, Elektra’s connectivity, calming clarity and ability to ‘rise up above’ symbolises power from the wellspring of Nature herself. Elektra’s presence exudes humility and gratitude, a quiet strength that restores order and balance in the web of life. In this elevated position, she represents the overriding life force - the spark and breath of life pervading planet earth.
Brand colours sustain a deep teal and revive a new, golden hue; reminiscent of the sands. Sand as a polarity, yet complimentary to water. In polarity, we are reminded that there is balance and harmony amongst hot and cold, left and right, yin and yang. The cool and warm colour palette seen to work with each other, embodies the theme of harmony amongst polarity,
Elektra Magnesium® products deliver vital magnesium which is essential for production of our electrical energy life force. Magnesium in ancient China was called ‘the beautiful mineral’ as it burns white and bright. It enables the electrical spark of life which is symbolised
by Elektra. Elektra Magnesium® products nurture, protect, cleanse, calm, regenerate and restore electrical balance and order for all living things. and grace amongst power. Elektra Magnesium® is thus in natural harmony with earth, its awareness and energy. Its natural elements transmit and conduct life force. Circular energy is continuous and flowing. It is smooth and comforting. As a result, it has a relaxing and calming effect on observers. It is symbolic of perfection, completeness, freedom, balance and connectivity.

MISSION STATEMENT:

"Every beneficial contribution from every person comes together for the benefit of the whole community - and for humanity as a whole. The internet is like a big piece of knitting... Once we each knit a bit more and a bit more into the greater fabric, the fibres get momentum and start to join up with increasing effect, weaving back and forth. In this way the whole becomes greater than the sum of the parts. Everything we do to help our customers solve their problems not only benefits us, but also others within the 'knitting': Our re-sellers, their customers and their extended families too. Beautiful synergy!

We are helping to build a global magnesium awareness about how to use magnesium to maintain optimal health and wellbeing. It all starts with helping people develop better self-care strategies, which are usually about the benefits of magnesium because magnesium deficiency is such a big problem in modern societies due to excessive stresses and soil depletion. Elektra Magnesium® natural skin and muscle care products not only offer great anti-ageing benefits, but they are tools we created to make it easier, more convenient and pleasant to use magnesium transdermally every day and ensure adequate magnesium levels for optimum health.

When people are in pain, or their movements have become restricted or involuntary, they get grumpy. When they are low in energy and fatigued they lose the joy of life because it takes energy to feel happiness and enthusiasm. Low magnesium causes emotional dysregulation and stress hypersensitivity. When optimum magnesium levels are restored and our cell environment is cleaned up, these symptoms are alleviated. And we can do it for ourselves. That is freedom. There is no need to be imprisoned by your body's tightness or fatigue, shakes or twitches, or lack of sleep. You can just make a decision today to be free and follow a better nutritional pathway. Life was of course meant to be more loose and flexible!"
Sandy Sanderson, CEO.

"My heart restored, my waters cleansed, the power surges in love to mend."

Designed and developed by our formulating chemist Peter Sanderson way back in 2009, Elektra Magnesium Cream was a ground-breaking innovative achievement.

Peter Sanderson - Founder Story - Video

The Herbal version was the first of its kind that combined several plant oils, butters and extracts successfully with infusion of 15% magnesium chloride. It was stabilized using novel processes, and without resorting to chemical emulsifiers and preservatives such as phenoxyethanol, dimethicone, parabens or other cheap toxic petrochemical ingredients. Elektra Magnesium Creams features over 20 nutritious ingredients and provide high fat content to protect the skin barrier and facilitate efficient transdermal magnesium absorption. It is still Australia's most popular and best loved magnesium cream, packed full of nutrition and easy to absorb for skin barrier protection, moisturisation, and smoother, refined, and more youthful looking skin.

The original and still the best since 2009!

Natural anti-ageing skin care

Magnesium skin care is a revolution in skin health and beauty maintenance. One of the reasons magnesium keeps us younger and more ‘juicy’ longer is because it is used to synthesize collagen, which is a protein scaffolding that forms structures to hold moisture and other nutrients in skin, nails and bones to organs, muscles, ligaments, cartilage, lung sacs and blood vessels…(Read more)

Benefits of MAGNESIUM MASSAGE to relax, recharge and recover.

Magnesium massage therapy offers important health benefits via blood and lymph circulation, waste clearance and detoxification, as well as relief of tension, stress and pain, which alleviates inflammation and promotes faster recovery from injury. Studies have shown that when magnesium is low, too much calcium settles in the soft tissue (muscles, ligaments, skin and endothelial linings) or joints of the body, causing stiffening via hypercalcemia. Athletes can be more prone to magnesium deficiency due to the excessive stresses of endurance exercise. Hypercalcemia and magnesium deficiency lengthens time of healing from injury and inflammation, whereas sufficient magnesium can support recovery faster. Magnesium massage promotes better circulation, flexibility and muscle recovery.

MAGNESIUM CREAMS TO CALM, NURTURE AND REVITALISE STRESSED, DRY FLAKEY SKIN incl ECZEMA, PSORIASIS, DERMATITIS, or ITCHY RASH

Magnesium helps to build collagen, which can hold more lipids and water for skin barrier hydration and protection. Also, it's a good idea to avoid exposure to known synthetic and petrochemicals, as well as harsh detergents and alcohols, which tend to aggravate sensitive skin conditions.

Although pure magnesium oil can feel bitey and itchy at high strength, the secret to getting better magnesium absorption into skin is the blend of plant oils that carry the magnesium chloride salt in mild concentration, and help it pass into the epidermis. This is what Elektra Magnesium Cream does so well. The skin loves it and devours it thankfully. Being able to absorb more magnesium transdermally can help your body to re-balance itself and become more tolerant to stress. Here is a way for you to tread slowly and safely to support your body's needs for recovery from stress and magnesium deficiency, at the same time receiving premium anti-ageing skin care support.

Daily application and absorption of magnesium is a convenient and very safe way to supplement the body's needs of magnesium.

GENTLE ULTRA-LIGHT MAGNESIUM TREATMENT FOR HYPER-SENSITIVE SKIN

STAGE 1. Magnesium chloride flakes (food grade) for footsoaking and bathing (at least 2-3 times per week): MAGNESIUM IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT FOR THE BODY'S DETOXIFICATION SYSTEM AND TO SUPPORT THE LIVER. By soaking in magnesium bath water your body will not only have the opportunity to take up magnesium at its own pace (without further digestion), but also to excrete toxins via skin. Drinking adequate magnesium water every day (ie. similar to natural spring water) also helps your body to become better hydrated and able to flush out wastes. Magnesium flakes (food grade) can also be used to make your own magnesium drinking water. Make sure to avoid drinking fluoridated chlorinated tap water as these chemicals will kill beneficial gut bacterial. The chemicals also block and bind up magnesium. 

STAGE 2. Add on the use of Baby Calm Balm (which is ultra light at only 1/3 of the magnesium as the standard Magnesium Creams). 

STAGE 3. Then after a while you can try moving up to Herbal Elektra Magnesium Cream as a moisturiser to soothe and protect dry sensitive skin. Herbal Magnesium Cream has more magnesium, but also a richer fat content to help buffer the salts. Many people find the Herbal Magnesium Cream the 'go-to' cream to try first for sensitive or extra-dry skin. This one is our most popular cream being used and promoted via practitioner clinics Australia-wide. Do not apply directly to broken, open or weeping skin, but work the cream in around the injured area. Start with one teaspoon a day and then over a few weeks increase to 2 teaspoons daily (once or twice a day) for skin maintenance... You can also use the Baby Calm Balm as a face cream, and use the Herbal Magnesium Cream as a body cream. It's a matter of experimenting to see what works best for your needs. There is no limit as to how much you use. The creams are well absorbed, feel so good on the skin, and help to maintain a more youthful looking complexion. The more stress we have to deal with, the higher are the magnesium demands to support recovery. Excessive stress triggers more inflammation and skin sensitivity. Magnesium helps to restore reserves to bring us back to equilibrium. Everyone will have differeng needs. One T-shirt doesn't fit all. Here is an interesting article about magnesium and the skin

Gently massage in for period cramp

Symptoms of Pre Menstrual Tension PMT) or the inflammation of Endometriosis is exacerbated by magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is a natural anti-inflammatory. Giving your body a little help with relaxing magnesium massage can soothe pain, sensitivity and bloating by helping blood circulation and delivery of magnesium to cells. Your craving for chocolate at that time of the month could be because of magnesium deficiency - but you can get a lot more magnesium from Magnesium Cream!

Pregnancy case study (download pdf)

See how Michaela changed her lifestyle to all natural highly nutritious regime, with daily magnesium massage and skin care - particularly on tummy area to maintain stretch capacity and resilience of skin. With her skin type being highly prone to stretch marks she had been concerned, but happily reported (with photos) that there were no stretch marks after her pregnancy. She also enjoyed a healthy pregnancy, using transdermal magnesium daily to massage tired sore muscles for relaxation and to promote better sleep.

Happy mum; happy baby.

Magnesium Cream for pregnancy and breast-feeding mothers

Building cells and providing energy for growing babies...

Pregnant women, in particular, greatly benefit from using transdermal magnesium due to the higher magnesium demands of growing a baby in the womb, as well as the feeding demands of baby. We all know that breast feeding is a better stronger support for a developing immune system, but what does Mum have to support her own needs?

Foods are generally lower in magnesium today compared to over 50 years ago. We also lose a lot of magnesium under stress, and pregnancy presents a big stress for the body that can take some time to recover from. By using transdermal magnesium we can give the body the opportunity to take up from the skin the nutrition it needs for recovery, and in its own time. Nothing is being pushed artificially into the body. It just happens naturally and gently. CAUTION: Avoid applying to open wounds or nipple area where baby feeds. Time to RELAX and really enjoy your pregnancy, birth and beautiful new member of the family!

Economical

Enjoy an all-over luxurious natural moisturizer for face and body, which can deliver more magnesium (250-300mg per two teaspoons cream rubbed all over the body) than tablets and powders can get through the gut wall. It can also be used as an underarm deodorant! (Is there anything this cream cannot do?)

Before & after sun skin recovery

Elektra Magnesium Cream is high in plant fats which help to hold moisture in and protect skin. The infused magnesium works inside the skin to support cell repair and recovery. The presence of lipids and magnesium also promote production of vitamin D in the skin. Vitamin D is then absorbed into body from skin.

NOTE: Magnesium Cream is not a sun block and one should be mindful about safe length of time in sun, appropriate for skin type. If you do get a bit of sunburn, apply extra thick layer of magnesium cream for soothing cool comfort and extra hydration.

Studies Recommend Magnesium for Headaches 

Magnesium For Headaches Is Considered A Natural Remedy

Pain is a factor that people deal with all around the world, using all sorts of products to relieve them. However, many don’t consider using magnesium for headaches. Magnesium is an essential mineral that is required by the body. Ultimately, it’s responsible for the operation of several biological processes and brings hydration into cells, which avoids dehydration and consequent tension. Magnesium also improves blood circulation, which is heavily dependent on the right electrolyte balance. The problem is we don’t supply our body with enough magnesium nutrition via the food we ingest. 

Benefits Of Headache Relief

Studies have shown that people with low magnesium levels are susceptible to headaches and migraines. A 2018 Review found: "Prophylactic treatment of migraine by means of high levels of magnesium dicitrate (600 mg) seems to be a safe and cost efficient strategy in clinical use." Research has been continuing in the use of magnesium for headaches. A 2020 Review concluded: "Migraine is usually related to low amounts of Mg in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Deficits in magnesium have significant role in the pathogenesis of migraine. Mg has been extensively used in migraine prophylaxis and treatment."

The lack of magnesium affects neurotransmitters and prevents blood vessel constriction, which results in migraines. Regular doses of magnesium are shown to reduce migraines by 40%. Apart from assisting with relieving stress headaches, using magnesium regularly has several other benefits. 

• Magnesium assists with lowering your blood sugar levels, thus reducing the risk of Type 2 diabetes. Research has demonstrated that a magnesium deficiency contributes to poor insulin resistance hence causing Type 2 diabetes. Even though more clinical research is required to treat diabetes with magnesium, preliminary studies have shown there are positive results. 
• Most people focus on calcium for the health of their bones; however, the wonder mineral, magnesium, assists with improving the strength of bones. It increases bone density, which decreases the risk of diseases such as osteoporosis. Apart from directly assisting with bone crystal formation, magnesium regulates the calcium and vitamin D in the body, which controls the health of bones.

About Elektra Magnesium

Our family operation commenced in late 2008 with a commitment to developing high-quality natural body care products containing magnesium. We understood that people were not taking in the correct amount of magnesium, and that pill supplements were expensive, not efficient and used for a only short time. Our goal was to create natural magnesium body care products that would be used regularly for skin care and relaxation, but also provide the body with its essential minerals.
