Hemp Oil (Cannabidiol) AKA CBD
All about CBD
CBD is short for cannabidiol, a compound derived from the hemp plant. Not to be confused with marijuana that some people smoke, CBD oil is legal and contains very little or none of the ‘psychoactive’ compound THC.
Benefits:
Relieves tension
Alleviates anxiety and stress
Improves skin
THC from the processing of hemp are negligible (<0.05%). With that being said, our CBD oil massages offer a non-psychoactive, all natural solution to unwind.
Evidence points toward a calming effect for CBD in the central nervous system and aiding some neuropsychiatric disorders, including anxiety (1). Which is why, we at RelaxBirmingham have chosen to offer CBD oil as an option to choose with our massages.
The addition of full-spectrum CBD oil sets us apart, harnessing the synergistic effects of cannabinoids and terpenes for a truly transformative and rejuvenating experience. When CBD oil is used on the skin, it locates natural endocannabinoid molecules in our system, binds with them and activates receptors in the ECS system to help stimulate the effects of pain relief and relaxation, calming the nervous system.
To increase the benefits of CBD, a combination of topical and oral use can be helpful as it can aid any aches, pains and anxiety from the inside and outside. CBD comes in other forms such as gummies, capsules or oral sprays for those who have a sensitive palate. This is something you may wish to research for yourself.
The safety of CBD : The World Health Organisation’s 2018 Critical Review Report on CBD states that CBD is generally well tolerated with a good safety profile. (2)
CBD is not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women, children, prospective parents trying for a baby or by people taking medication. Before using any CBD products, it’s best to check with your GP that they are safe for you to use and to make sure they don’t interact with any medication being taken.
