CBD
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the dozens of non-psychoactive cannabinoids found in the hemp plant. Cannabidiol and all the other cannabinoids were patented by the United States Government in 2003 as neuroprotectants and antioxidants (Patent No. 6,630,507). Cannabinoids are characterized by their ability to act on the cannabinoid receptors that are found throughout the body. CBD and other cannabinoids are naturally occurring compounds that display potent anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. They can promote the body’s healthy regulation of the central nervous, immune, and endocannabinoid systems. This is why CBD treatment is an appealing option for patients looking for relief from:
-
inflammation
-
pain
-
anxiety
-
seizures
-
muscular spasms
Scientific and Clinical research suggests CBD’s potential as a treatment for a wide range of conditions, including:
-
arthritis
-
chronic pain
-
diabetes
-
alcoholism
-
epilepsy
-
MS
-
schizophrenia
-
PTSD
-
depression
-
antibiotic-resistant infections
among other neurological disorders.
Ask your therapist to add CBD treatment to your individual bodywork session for an additional $10. Or, you may also purchase salve at the studio or at the SHOP for personal use.
