CBD, or cannabidiol, is being marketed as the answer for all kinds of health problems, and a growing number of spas are adding CBD-infused massages to their list of services.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a naturally occurring compound found in the resinous flower of cannabis. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the main psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis, and causes the sensation of getting “high” that’s often associated with marijuana. However, unlike THC, CBD is not psychoactive. This quality makes CBD an appealing option for those who are looking for relief from pain and other symptoms without the mind-altering effects of marijuana or certain pharmaceutical drugs.
Today the therapeutic properties of CBD are being tested and confirmed by scientists and doctors around the world.
The anti-inflammatory and pain relieving agents of CBD reduces inflammation within muscles and joints, allowing the massage therapist to work more effectively. People seek massages as a way to relax and escape stress. For athletes, CBD also has the reputation for accelerating the recovery and healing process of injured connective tissue.
Always check with your massage therapist before trying CBD.
It’s important to discuss CBD with your massage therapist, and for massage therapists, it’s equally important to educate yourself on CBD to effectively address common questions. The connection between massage therapy and cannabis is just the beginning of understanding how cannabis can play a role in our overall health.
