What is CBD?

Cannabidiol, or known by its most popular name CBD is a substance that is found in the Cannabis plant.  It is derived from the male form of cannabis called Hemp that contains extremely small to no amounts of THC.   CBD is a chemical that DOES NOT get you high.  Recent research studies have found that CBD when used offers a wide range of potential health benefits either internally or topically in the body.

Because cannabis plants usually have a very high amount of THC in them, most of the CBD chemicals in the market, comes from hemp plants which is the male form of the plant.  Thereby allowing CBD oil to be widely and legally distributed in all US states and used for many different things.

What Does CBD Oil Do for Massage?

CBD Massage for Pain

A CBD massage is typically created with a CBD oil that is mixed with another oil or cream before the massage therapist applies the substance to the skin.

The therapy is becoming much more popular lately thanks to the possible great effects and the widely recognized notion that it helps with multiple pain-related conditions on the body.

The director of medical business development at Apollo Cannabis Clinics – Dr. Tanny Raz says this about CBD oil, “Receiving a massage with CBD oil can potentially be very beneficial to patients who are suffering from symptoms such as localized pain, arthritis or inflammation, and skin disorders like eczema or psoriasis.”

The latest studies have found that CBD can increase the amount of sleep people get.  On top of that, it’s reported that CBD also has a pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effect on inflamed parts of the body.

Can I Rub CBD Oil on My Skin for Pain?

In the last few years, many scientific studies have concluded that it does work for reducing pain and it is helping people with a wide variety of health problems. (2)   Many researchers and experts have praised the amazing features of the cannabinoids, especially when applied directly to the skin. CBD is very easily absorbed through the skin and this is also one of the reasons why this kind of treatment is so effective.

Will a CBD Massage Show Up for a Drug Test?

As many people are connecting CBD directly with cannabis, there is a bit of suspicion of passing a drug test after receiving CBD massage therapy.

Does CBD oil contain THC?

The drug tests detect the active chemical in cannabis (THC) which comes from the female cannabis plant.  CBD oil comes from the male cannabis plant, also known as Hemp which contains extremely small levels of THC (not detectable on a drug test).  So NO, a CBD oil massage will not show up on a drug test if the oil is created from hemp.

It will only show up if the CBD was derived from the female plant and in a state where the female cannabis plant is legal, either for medical or recreational use.  In most states, you do not have to worry.

To ensure your job safety, ask the spa to see the CBD oil to see the oils ingredients and its chemical make-up.   There are many different brands of CBD oil out there, so do your due diligence when checking.  Check your states laws to see if CBD oil comes from hemp or cannabis as well.

 

How Long does it Take for CBD Oil to Work Topically?

Many people are curious about how fast the CBD oil needs to start working when being applied topically.  The answer is that it depends and there is not a lot of information with concrete time lengths.  The time it takes to work will vary from person to person, but the most commonly reported  time is 90 minutes for the full peak effect when being used in a massage/topically.

Some people report that they feel the benefits right after the massage, others say that it takes a few hours.  When used in a massage it will be absorbed through the skin and it will only compliment the relaxation effects from a massage.  It is very therapeutic and enjoyable.

We highly encourage you to try a CBD oil massage at your nearest spa.  It offers a host of health benefits and won’t show up on a drug test as it contains no THC.  Let us know if you have any other questions you want answered and we will be happy to answer!
