The type of solution formed is hypertonic.

<h3>What are hypertonic solutions?</h3>

Hypertonic solutions are solutions with higher dissolved solutes as compared to the sap of the cells suspended in them.

Epsom salt is made up largely of magnesium sulfate. Thus, a solution formed by dissolving Epsom salt is water will have more magnesium in it than the cells of the part of the body soaked in it.  

Hence, such a solution is hypertonic.
