If you're moving to a new place, this is yet another perfect time to take a bath… it can be the cause for a lot of extra stress and sore muscles from all the heavy lifting.  To relax and unwind at the end of these straining moving days, why not take a bath?

Taking a 20 minute bath with bath salts at the end of your day can reduce stress and tension while soothing tired and aching muscles.

Adding any type of bath salts to your tub will help you achieve true relaxation.  Epsom Salt is ideal for muscle replacement and our Spa Therapy Muscle Soak made of Epsom Salt with the essential oils of Peppermint and Eucalyptus is our most muscle relieving blend. Add two handfuls to your tub for a truly therapeutic bath.

You may also want to try our Epsoak Deluxe- Epsom Salt with your choice of fragrance or essential oils.

Answers to your most frequently asked questions when comparing these two great salts.

What is the difference between these two salts?

Both the Light Pink Himalayan Salt and the Sherpa Pink Himalayan Salt are 100% natural salts from the Himalayas.  The Light Pink Himalayan Salt still has the 84 trace minerals that the Sherpa Pink Himalayan Salt is reported to have, the difference between these two salts is the amount (or concentration) of the minerals which give the salt its unique, dark pink coloring. Since the Light Pink has less of certain minerals (such as iron) it is able dissolve better, leaving less particles behind in your tub.

Which is better for bathing?

This depends on what you are looking for in a bath salt. They are both suitable for bathing but some prefer the Light Pink since it is able dissolve better (because of the difference is mineral concentration) leaving fewer particles behind in your tub. However, if you are looking to re-mineralize the body you may want to consider the Sherpa Pink as it will be more mineral rich.

Which is better for cooking?

The Light Pink Himalayan Salt and Sherpa Pink Himalayan Salt are both food grade.  You can decide for yourself which you think tastes best by trying samples of these salts first.

What grain sizes are available in these salts?

Light Pink Himalayan Salt available in Fine (suitable for salt shaker) or Coarse

Sherpa Pink Himalayan Salt available in Extra Fine (suitable for salt shaker), Fine, Medium, or Coarse
