CBD and Muscle Discomfort

Working out and being physically active have so many health benefits beyond just looking “swol.” Being active also elevates your mood and reduces stress. That being said, after a tough day of working out or just being on your feet for an extended amount of time, muscle cramps and tightness are bound to happen. According to health experts, your recovery is just as important to staying in shape as the workout or activity itself.

It makes sense. Work hard; rest hard. However, in order to get the rest and relief you need, sometimes you need a little help to target the specific area that doesn’t feel so great. That’s where CBD products can really enhance your recovery. No two products are alike. You can reap certain benefits from a CBD muscle rub that are different from the benefits you’d experience from using a CBD muscle balm for example. Which muscle cream should you use for your recovery and what works best for your lifestyle? Here’s a quick guide on how to use CBD for muscle discomfort.

“On The Go” Targeted Recovery

If part of your active lifestyle is that you’re always “on the go,” certain products are going to be more conducive for when you’re running out of the gym and headed to the office. You don’t have time to luxuriate with a CBD cream that’s going to need to be spread using your hands! You need something that’s easy to apply and quick-drying. If this sounds like you, try these products.

CBD Cooling Spray

When you’re at the gym it’s not “proper form” to ask strangers to rub muscle cream on the hard to reach places of your back. That being said, social conduct doesn’t keep those muscles from being tense. When you’re out and about, you need a way to calm those areas without the aid of others, which is why CBD cooling spray was invented! Use the nozzle to send a stream of mist to your back and neck. It dries quickly on its own while the arnica, menthol and CBD combo will help you relax after an intense yoga or pilates session.

CBD Infused Patch

Don’t even have time to spray or apply using a balm stick? Just slap on a CBD patch and call it a day. CBD patches provide recovery support all day or night. You don’t even have to think about it. They’re sweat and water resistant, so you can go about your schedule as normal, while reaping the rewards. Pick whatever 12 hour period you think you’ll need the most comfort, peel and stick. Voila! Relief you don’t have to think about.

“At Home” Recovery

Your home is a place to unwind. There’s a lot you can do at your house to relieve muscle discomfort. For example, take time to stretch in the shower and go to bed at a reasonable hour. In addition to healthy habits, you can also incorporate CBD products into your daily routine.

CBD Muscle Balm

Take the time to slow down and rub a combination of aloe, Vitamin E, tea tree oil, menthol, and CBD on the muscles that need a little love with CBD muscle balm. You’ll tingle with delight as your muscles relax after a hard day’s work.

Extended Release Gel Capsules

Your body needs to be able to recover as a whole, not just the muscles where you feel the most tension. By adding extended release gel capsules to your daily or nightly routine, you can support your muscle recovery from inside your “operating system.” Even if you’re specifically taking these gel capsules for your muscles, you’ll also be managing your stress levels and restfulness. What could be better than feeling an overall sense of recovery?

Make sure you get some great sleep after a particularly active day in order to give your muscles the time they need to recover. Listening to your body is just as important as exercise. Incorporating CBD is a great way to practice self-care and find overall balance, peace and wellness.
