Magnesium for  Pregnancy

Gentle relief, deeper rest, and a little more joy — for you and baby.

At KOA, we believe pregnancy is a sacred time — a journey filled with transformation, emotion and connection. But let’s be honest... it also comes with its fair share of discomfort.

Topical magnesium offers a safe, natural way to support your body through this time — easing common aches and promoting calm, restorative sleep. It’s a beautiful way to support yourself, naturally.

Let nature in. Let her hold you.

Why Magnesium Matters During Pregnancy

Magnesium is an essential mineral your body depends on every day. It supports nerve function, muscle relaxation, hormonal balance and heart health — and during pregnancy, your body’s demand for it naturally increases.

At KOA, we use magnesium chloride, a gentle, highly absorbable form of magnesium that’s perfect for topical use. It bypasses digestion, so your body can absorb it where it’s needed, whether that’s your sore back, swollen feet, or tired legs.

We have many customers that have used our natural and plant based Magnesium Body Butters (cream) and Magnesium Oils (spray) during pregnancy. Our customers have told us that they experience relief from symptoms including:

• Tiredness and sleeplessness
• Aching body
• Restless legs
• Sore back
• Sore ligaments
• Swollen legs, ankles and feet.

Check our reviews for our customers’ experiences and stories.

"I bought this after being recommended it by a friend. An unexpected bonus (aside from easing cramping and restless legs) is that it also works for my swollen feet and ankles! I massage it into the soles of my feet every night and haven’t had swelling since. I’m 7 and a half months pregnant during summer so this feels like a miracle balm. Best purchase of my pregnancy so far!" Rachel T March 6, 2024

Sleep Support for Mamas-to-Be

Sleep is essential for wellness at any time — but during pregnancy, it becomes even more important. Magnesium’s calming effect on muscles and the nervous system makes it ideal for supporting:

• Enhanced mood and emotional well-being
• Boosted immune system
• Hormone regulation
• Improved cognitive function
• Reduced stress and anxiety

We recommend massaging Lavender Magnesium Body Butter into your feet before bed, especially after a warm shower or bath. It’s a soothing ritual that helps you wind down and reconnect with yourself.

Is Magnesium chloride safe during pregnancy?

While magnesium is generally considered safe for use during pregnancy, it’s always best to speak with your healthcare provider before introducing any new supplement or product, especially in the first trimester.

Your care provider can help you understand your individual needs, daily magnesium requirements, and how magnesium chloride fits into your overall wellness plan. We suggest starting in the second or third trimester, and always listening to your body.

Using KOA Magnesium Safely

As always, when using a product for the first time, do a small skin test first. Try a spray of Magnesium Oil or dob of Magnesium Body Butter on your wrist first to check for any reactions.

Remember, every pregnancy is unique, and what may be safe for one person may not be suitable for another. It's always best to consult with a healthcare professional who can provide personalised advice based on your individual circumstances.
