Cannabis has made a name in most households in the last few years owing to the wave of legalization. You can find either cannabis or CBD written on a wide range of products on the market, but it is not just the products that are under the grasp of cannabis. 

Many professionals today are offering cannabis-infused massage therapy to their clients, and guess what? It is an instant hit among massage lovers all over the world. 

Wondering why? Read on to find out everything you needed to know about cannabis and massage.

What is cannabis?

The Cannabis sativa plant is known for its medicinal and therapeutic properties across the globe. People have been using the plant for centuries to get relief from physical and mental troubles. 

Cannabis contains over a hundred different compounds known as cannabinoids, which determine how the plant will affect you. Among the many cannabinoids present in cannabis, we are well-aware of the two most prominent ones, which are cannabidiol and tetrahydrocannabinol. 

While cannabidiol or CBD is the healing element of cannabis, THC or tetrahydrocannabinol is the psychoactive element that induces a high. Are you among the few people who have never laid their hands on this magical plant? You can start by getting budget buds to enjoy that buzz.   

How does cannabis massage work?

Well, there is not much of a difference between a standard massage and a cannabis massage. The only difference here is that the therapist will use CBD oil or cannabis-infused oil instead of the regular one. 

They will apply it to the areas that have more veins so that your body can absorb the cannabinoids more quickly and give you the relaxation that you need. Will a cannabis massage get you high? Fret not for the oil only contains CBD, not THC. 

Hence, you can relax and let go of your stress without worrying about getting high in between your massage session!

What are the benefits of using cannabis during the massage?

There are many ways in which a cannabis massage can help you. Here are a few of them:

1. Alleviates stress

With fast-paced life and never-ending deadlines, stress has become a significant part of our lives today. Cannabis comes as a blessing in disguise for the ones suffering from stress and anxiety. CBD is known to have calming properties and has helped many people in tackling the symptoms of anxiety and stress. 

When you combine cannabis with massage therapy, the effects are astounding. It can heighten the stress-releasing effects of massage and help you go through your day with ease. 

Have a big presentation coming up? Try taking a cannabis massage a day before and let go off your stress.  

2. Relaxes the muscles

Are sore muscles not letting you live your best life? A good massage session infused with cannabis can do the trick for you. 

You must be aware of the fact that when you smoke cannabis, it takes your mind into a state of deep relaxation. But, the relaxing effects of cannabis extends to the rest of your body as well. Rubbing the cannabis oil gently on your skin can reduce the soreness of your muscles and make you feel energetic after a single session. 

It is a beneficial therapy for athletes, but you must talk to your physician once before you begin the cannabis massage therapy to be sure about its effects.

3. Help manage the pain

The people who are suffering from chronic pain find it hard to function without their daily dose of painkillers. If you are looking for a natural and organic way to deal with the excruciating and debilitating pain, you can give cannabis massage a try. CBD has pain-relieving properties, which can help alleviate pain. 

Moreover, the cannabinoids present in cannabis, attach themselves to the receptors present in our body and regulate how we feel towards different stimuli. Adding cannabis in the massage therapy that focuses on the affected area will help reduce pain.      

4. Has anti-inflammatory properties

Cannabis has anti-inflammatory properties. The cannabinoids interact with the endocannabinoid system present in our body and can affect a series of functions, like your mood, appetite, immune system, hormonal balance, and much more. 

When the therapist uses cannabis during the massage session, it might reduce the inflammation and pain. Not only that, it may even keep skin diseases and pain at bay.    

5. Nourishes the skin

The skin is the largest organ in your body, and you ought to keep it in good shape. If you are fighting dry skin or skin disorders like eczema and psoriasis, it is a sign that your skin lacks nourishment. 

The most natural and effective way of moisturizing your skin is cannabis. Cannabis contains essential fatty acids like omega-3 and omega-6, which are essential to keep your skin healthy.  When the therapist uses it on your body while massaging, it adds a layer of protection over your skin that keeps you protected from pollution and harsh weather conditions.  

Final Thoughts

Cannabis is a magical plant that is helping millions of people around the globe in reforming their lives. The therapeutic benefits that it offers are making it a household name. While the Canadian government is still opening up to the idea of using cannabis openly, the public has already given a favorable verdict. 

Researchers are trying to treat everything from everyday ailments to even serious diseases such as cancer with the help of cannabis. From alleviating pain to reducing stress and also nourishing dry skin, it is safe to say that cannabis is transforming the wellness industry for good. So, if you haven’t already tried it, now is the right time to make an appointment, or you can buy weed online Canada and try it at home.

Happy International Women's Day to all the women c Happy International Women's Day to all the women crushing it despite getting less pay, less startup funding, less everything when it comes to business. Let's do more than recognize women.
In 2023, it's time to:
*Buy from women-owned businesses
*Give women a seat at the table, preferably the board
*End all male speaking panels
*Invest in women startups, including those focused on serving women
*Include more women in clinical trials
*End toxic work cultures
*Support paid maternity leave policies
*Fill the wage gap between men and women
*Donate to nonprofits serving women
*Let women take time off of work for painful periods without stigma or penalty
*Work harder to specifically include and apply all of these principles to women from marginalized groups such as black women, disabled women, LGBTQ women, and females identifying as nonbinary, genderfluid, or genderqueer.
And so. much. more.

No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children trick or treating on Halloween. Those reports you hear on the news simply aren’t true! ⁣
⁣
However, if you are attending a Halloween party for adults, ask if the candies, goodies, or drinks are special or infused! Edibles are more common at parties as an alternative to alcohol, especially in states where the plant has been legalized for both recreational & medical use.⁣
⁣
If you’re not used to consuming, try a small piece or half a piece, drink plenty of water, and make sure you have a safe place to sit if needed. And always call a rideshare aka Uber or Lyft home!⁣
⁣
Happy Halloween! 🎃💀👻⁣

⁣
Which is your favorite Medicinal Mushr00m?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It's more important than ever to take mushr00m supplements. Here's a little about how my favorite four mushr00ms work:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Lion’s Mane Mushr00ms: great for improving focus and memory. Lion's mane promotes neurogenesis, or birth of new brain cells.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Cordyceps Mushr00ms: great for fighting fatigue and increasing length of your workouts. It's especially helpful for fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue patients.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Turkey Tail Mushr00ms: great for supporting your immune system. Clinical trials have looked at its role in fighting cancer.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Reishi Mushr00ms: what can't the queen of mushr00ms do? It fights cancer, boosts the immune system, improves mood, levels blood sugar, and promotes heart health.⁣⁣

9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a da 9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a day to celebrate them?
Well in the United States & many parts of the world, they are still illegal, similar to another misunderstood therapeutic green plant we celebrate on 4/20. 
I've worked hard over the years in Denver & many other states to help decriminalize shr00ms and help people access information on how to use them for medical, spiritual, and stress relief purposes. I suggest following @decriminalizenature & @doubleblindmag for deeper info.
How are you celebrating today? ❤️ 🍄 ❤️

I’m not the only one, right? 😜 👩🏻‍🔬 💚
As a neuroscientist, I put out the first book on the potential causes of endocannabinoid deficiency and how to balance your ECS with or without plant medicine. 
From stress to medications to diet to your genes, there are so many ways your ECS go go haywire. The fact that so many people respond to plant medicine is likely because so many of us have severe imbalances.
