How does Recovery Balm with CBD work to relieve muscles and joints?
When a balm is rubbed or massaged into the skin it will diffuse the active components, notably CBD.
CBD receptors are found naturally all over the body. By applying a product containing CBD, these receptors will be activated to promote the soothing and anti-inflammatory effects of CBD.
CBD is derived from the hemp plant, but the same compounds are also naturally produced in the human body as part of the Endocannabinoid system (ECS).
The ECS plays the part of maintaining homeostasis in the body, that regulate the natural systems regulating joint swelling, avd muscle pain.
Research and anecdotal reports show that CBD is proving to modulate the ECS and exert anti-inflammatory effects through two key mechanisms. Firstly, it may inhibit the production of inflammatory signaling molecules, known as cytokines, thus diminishing the intensity of the inflammatory response. Secondly, CBD has the potential to reduce the activation of immune cells, thereby curbing their pro-inflammatory reactions.
By using a high-quality CBD balm on affected areas – calves, muscles, etc, it should help alleviate discomfort in muscles and joints. This is because the CBD receptors are located in your skin. Recovery Balm can be applied as a gentle massage, until it is absorbed into your skin, to feel its anti inflammatory effects.
When blended with other natural plant extracts, the healing components can work together to provide relief from your symptoms and help to manage discomfort.
