Unexpected Benefits of CBD Oil for Massage

As the relaxation experts, believe us when we tell you that CBD oil takes the idea of “chill” to a whole new level. While we’ve written about the benefits of CBD oil before, there are some unexpected physical and mental benefits from CBD oil when combined with massage therapy. With its range of holistic benefits and uses, CBD massage oil will melt your worries and discomfort away. It’s a match made in heaven! 

PUT YOUR MIND AT EASE

Known to treat both mental and physical symptoms of anxiety, CBD oil can also alleviate the stress we build up on a daily basis. Although derived from cannabis, CBD is a substance that doesn’t cause a high, as explained by Harvard Health Publishing. These benefits aren’t limited to those with diagnosed anxiety—anyone who is experiencing day to day stress can benefit from CBD oil massages. As your muscles release tension and melt into relaxation during CBD massage therapy, you can expect your stressful thoughts to do the same.

For many people, actually getting our minds to relax once we hit the massage table can be tough. Our brain runs a thousand miles a minute planning the day ahead, thinking about what to cook for dinner, the remaining items on your to-do list or just that annoying song that’s been stuck in your head for what feels like forever. Whatever those thoughts may be, getting a massage with CBD oil can help your mind ease into relaxation. 

CALM YOUR SKIN

Recognized as a way to alleviate chronic pain and calm inflammation, CBD oil has surprising benefits for the surface of your skin as well. CBD works by interacting with the endocannabinoid system, which has protein receptors throughout the body that absorb CBD. 

Stimulating the endocannabinoid system can help alleviate a range of skin conditions as the anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatory properties found in CBD come in contact with your body. Plus, CBD oil is an excellent topical moisturizer that can help alleviate dry, itchy, or flaky skin.

Individuals suffering with skin conditions such as eczema, rosacea, psoriasis, etc., will benefit from CBD oil as it prevents drying of the skin, helps with any damage the skin may have endured and shortens the time of healing. A CBD massage can provide relief from any itching or discomfort as your skin and your body ease into relaxation. 

STIMULATE THE SENSES

With enhanced relaxation and a quieter mind, it’s easier to be present and enjoy the unique sensory stimulation that comes from a massage. In fact, CBD oil has been scientifically proven to help with sensory processing disorders and focusing energy to return the body to homeostasis (a scientific state of balance). 

During your CBD massage, you’ll be more acutely aware of not only the tactile sensations of the massage itself, but of the calming music playing in the room, the luxury linens and the heated table and the pleasing aromatherapy scent you selected at the beginning of your massage. This positive sensory stimulation can help the physical and mental relaxation effects last even longer after your CBD massage ends.
