The Benefits of a CBD Massage
Many of the benefits of CBD are to be gained from taking a CBD product. Due to CBD’s interaction with certain medications, a consultation with a doctor is recommended before internal use. A CBD massage, on the other hand, is safe for everyone, making the benefits of CBD accessible for all, while enjoying the gifts of touch.
The SALT CBD Massage is the perfect way to relax and release muscle tension. A massage therapy session with CBD massage oil provides great wellness benefits as well as nourish and soften your skin.
Here are just some of the benefits to gain from the experience.
What is CBD, and How Does it Work?
CBD, Cannabidiol, is one of over 100 different plant cannabinoids found in the Cannabis Sativa L. plant species. The most commonly known cannabinoid from this plant is THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. CBD, on the other hand, is not psychoactive, and has been found to have a wide range of potential health benefits.
In the early 1990’s scientists discovered a system of receptors and naturally occurring molecules in the human body that mimics the molecular shape of plant cannabinoids, and named it the endocannabinoid system. Moreover, they discovered that the presence of plant cannabinoids, such as CBD, trigger our body’s natural endocannabinoid production and essentially help to “turn on” the endocannabinoid system to its full effect.
The main function of the endocannabinoid system is to maintain homeostasis within our various body systems. In other words, it exists to return us to biological harmony when we have gotten out of balance.
The Benefits: Reduces Tension
One of the main reasons to get massage therapy is to relieve tension from your body. Both in body and mind, the cannabinoids in CBD massage oil helps to do this.
This is because CBD helps to ease and relax your muscles as the cannabinoids enter our endocannabinoid system via the skin. Since it doesn’t contain THC, the active ingredient of marijuana, you won’t get high from it.
That means you can go about the rest of your day without feeling high and still enjoy the relaxing afterglow of the massage.
The Benefits: Relieves Chronic Pain
CBD massages are perfect for those who suffer from chronic pain. This is because CBD is proven to be an excellent way to deal with pain management.
The cannabinoids in CBD massage oil helps to reduce inflammation and soothes muscles. This makes it very effective at providing relief from painful joints and muscles.
People who suffer from chronic pain, arthritis, back pain, and so much more can reap the many benefits of a CBD oil massage. You might start to feel the effects within minutes and it can last for hours afterward.
The Benefits: Alleviates Anxiety & Stress
If you suffer from anxiety or feel stressed often, you could also enjoy the benefits of a CBD oil massage. CBD oil is hailed for its ability to reduce the symptoms of anxiety, and a massage could be the most effective use of it.
This is because CBD oil induces a soothing and calming effect but doesn’t get you high. A massage without CBD oil will help you to de-stress, and paired with CBD oil it’s a match made in heaven!
The effects of a CBD oil massage can last for up to two hours and is the perfect way to calm down and ease your mental state.
The Benefits: Improves Skin Conditions
You might not know it, but CBD is, in fact, a fantastic moisturizer. CBD massage oil contains hemp which conditions the skin making it supple and soft.
Not only does this help you feel better and more relaxed after the massage, but it can also help with skin conditions. People who suffer from skin conditions such as eczema, acne, psoriasis or even just dry skin, can benefit from it.
This is also because of the anti-inflammatory properties of CBD that will soothe the skin and reduce the pain of some skin conditions as well. There are minimal side effects and if you’ve tried other remedies that haven’t worked, it’s definitely something you should consider.
The Benefits: Boosts Your Mood
If you’ve ever had a massage before, you’ll know that during and after, you feel great because of it. It relaxes the body and mind and helps you to forget about your worries and live in the moment.
Combined with CBD oil, this elevates the experience and makes it much more enjoyable. You’ll leave the massage with smoother skin, relaxed muscles, and feel less anxious or stressed in general.
All of these factors combined provide a massive boost to your mood.
The Benefits: Stimulates the Senses
Getting a CBD oil massage is a great way to connect to your body and it stimulates the senses in a unique way. Since your skin, muscles, and mind are all being stimulated during the massage, it provides a great feeling.
You’ll feel more connected with your body and can help you feel refreshed and alert. Living in such a fast-paced world means that we don’t often spend enough time connecting with ourselves and living in the moment.
A CBD massage is a great way to do this and is something you should consider making a regular occurrence.
