Description

Happy Horizons is the original magnesium cream, and we believe it is the best. Pat calls this her ‘miracle’ cream. Research has found that many people are magnesium and sulphur deficient. The absorption of magnesium and sulphur through the skin is  very effective. Our magnesium cream is an excellent choice for those wanting to avoid oral supplements.  Our cream is very helpful for people suffering from restless legs, cramps, anxiety, many skin conditions, sore muscles, trouble sleeping and many more common health complaints. It is also a great moisturiser. 

Our raw materials are unprocessed; our oils are all organic, raw, cold-pressed; our beeswax is unrefined, locally sourced, and fluvalinate-free.
To avoid the need for preservatives, we make everything fresh in small batches.
Our ingredients are all ethically sourced and free from palm-oil (and palm-oil derivatives)

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if I would benefit from Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream?

Many common symptoms are known to be related to magnesium deficiency, so if you suffer from any of the symptoms listed below, you will probably benefit from using Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream.

  • Cramps
  • Restless legs
  • Sore muscles
  • Menstrual cramps
  • Difficulty sleeping/insomnia
  • Anxiety
  • Poor sleep

It is difficult to diagnose magnesium deficiency clinically, because a blood test will not reveal a deficiency in the tissues.  The body manages to keep blood levels of magnesium within quite narrow limits and it does this as a priority; this does not reflect the status of magnesium in the tissues, and tissue biopsies are generally considered too invasive to perform routinely.

How much Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream should I use?

We are all different so we encourage you to experiment to find the optimum amount and frequency depending on the severity of your symptoms. We recommend applying before going to bed and as required during the day. 

Unlike other types of magnesium there are no known contraindications to topical application of Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream, so there is no danger you can overdose.

Is Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream safe to use during pregnancy?

Yes, Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream is safe to use during pregnancy.  Many midwives specifically recommend our cream for help with cramps, which are common particularly during the second and third trimesters.

The magnesium salts that Happy Horizons uses are naturally occurring in the Earth and have been lab tested, so we know it is the purest available.  Some magnesium salts are made with ‘agricultural grade’ magnesium sulphate, which permits much higher levels of contaminants (heavy metals and the like).

There are no known contraindications for the type of magnesium (MgSO4) we use at Happy Horizons when applied topically.  There are potential complications with all other forms of magnesium, and with oral magnesium too.

Can I use Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream for menstrual cramps?

The short answer is Yes!

Your uterus is a muscle and relaxes and contracts like all muscles.  Generously apply Happy Horizons magnesium Cream to your abdomen when you experience menstrual cramps and continue to apply daily. 

Is Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream safe for children and babies?

Yes, Happy Horizons magnesium cream is safe to use for children and babies, and many parents finds it helps their little ones settle better and everybody’s sleep improves.

The magnesium salts that Happy Horizons uses are naturally occurring in the Earth and have been lab tested, so we know it is the purest available.  Some magnesium salts are made with ‘agricultural grade’ magnesium sulphate (which is cheaper), which permits much higher levels of contaminants (heavy metals and the like). Our underlying philosophy is about caring for people and the environment so the quality of our ingredients is important to us.

There are no known contraindications for the type of magnesium (MgSO4) we use at Happy Horizons when applied topically.  There are potential complications with all other forms of magnesium, and with oral magnesium too.

Why should I use Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream?

This is the original magnesium cream, and we think it is still the best and most effective cream you can buy. Developed and made here in New Zealand, in small batches using the highest quality ingredients.  There are no fillers, stabilisers, preservatives etc.  Our beautiful cold-pressed oils are all sourced from organically certified producers whom we trust.

My Magnesium Cream has gone slightly grainy.  Does this matter?

At Happy Horizons we don’t use synthetic stabilisers in our products. This is one of the things that makes Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream stand out from the rest. There is a trade off: if the cream is stored in a too cold room, it can sometimes get a bit grainy.  This is cosmetic only and doesn’t affect the efficacy.  However, if you store you cream above 15 degrees, you can avoid the issue.

Will Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream help to improve my sleep patterns?

There are many factors which may contribute to poor sleep. There is a large body of research showing magnesium improves sleep quality across a range of circumstances.   We believe that topical application of Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream just before sleep is the most effective way, and we have a growing body of customer feedback confirming the effectiveness of this cream as a sleep support.

Can people who are gluten intolerant use Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream?

Happy Horizons Magnesium Cream and all Happy Horizons products are gluten-free.

This cream is more than great. It is one of the first produces from Happy horizon I used. During my pregnancy I had $a lot of cramp and I could not sleep. This cream that is safe for pregnant women (quite rare) makes all the difference.
Highly recommended

The creams consistency is so smooth and rich and rubs in well while you feel it nourishing your skin. It keeps me topped up with magnesium sufficiently to stop leg cramps from muscle overuse. Thanks

I use this cream daily as the body needs magnesium for so many functions. It is lovely on your skin, so smooth and not too oily. Great product! Wouldn't use any other! O

I have found this magnesium cream to be really helpful with foot cramp and restless legs. I have used it for a month and am very happy with the product and would purchase more.

I suffer regularly from restless legs and despite taking magnesium tablets for a long time find that happy horizons cream is the only thing I can rely on to prevent the legs jumping about and let me sleep!

I have been using this product for a few weeks now and find it is great to use as a sleeping aid. I put a small amount on the inside of my wrists and gently rub in and I fall asleep way more quickly than I did before using this cream. My husband has had amazing results from this cream to ease the almost daily pain he suffers from shingles on the side of his face. Since 2014 he has tried many lotions, oils and creams but nothing gave him the relief he gets from the magnesium cream. He carries some everywhere he goes and when he feels the pain and stinging associated with shingles coming on he applies a small amount to his face. I am so pleased that at last he has found a product that is natural and works so well for him. This cream is an amazing product.

Me and all of my girl friends use it to prevent menstrual cramps! You can notice the difference the moment you use it two o three times. The first time I used it during my period I was experiencing terrible pains, a friend gave me a jar and I rubbed the cream on my belly every two hours. After just three applications the pain stopped. It is magic. And if you use it regularly completely takes the menstrual pains away.

I've been using this cream for many months now and find it instantly effective for inflammation on my knee resulted from a medical adventure caused from an operation that failed.
I also find having magnesium rubbed on my skin helps me relax therefore sleep better.
