It's a bag of "Epsom Salt " you measure out 1 cup and put it into a pan of very warm water. Soak your hands. I put the pan on a tv tray and watch tv while my hands or feet soak. Epsom salt has magnesium in it and it enters your body by way if your skin. Your skin is the biggest organ of the body and like osmosis it is absorbed. Very helpful, I do it weekly.

This might gross you out, but when we were little kids my brother and I picked up pinworms. Off to Mayo where they had us drink Epsom Salt--the magnesium really caused a clean-out poop--and then they were able to analyze the poop for eggs, which they found. Then he and I had to chew wintergreen-flavored pills for a couple of weeks at least. It was a long time before I was willing to eat that flavor again.

@ellens Let me @deborahfrick123 I have used it in warm to hot water for feet ,hands and washcloth with it on my legs When your hurting anywhere use epsom salts
