CBD muscle balm is another of the wonderful wellness products on the market that have been enriched with CBD extract.

These balms usually also include other natural extracts and oils in them, to nourish and soothe aching muscles.

Wait…What is CBD?

Skip this bit if you already know about CBD!

CBD is an endocannabinoid naturally sourced from Cannabis Sativa (hemp plant), which are usually grown for nutritional purposes.

To make CBD oils and extracts, the flowers and leaves of the hemp plant are made into a paste and the CBD is extracted, hemp seeds are a secondary source.

Does CBD Muscle Rub work?

While you may have heard about the benefits of ingesting CBD before, using a muscle balm is probably going to work differently to your regular CBD oil.

CBD balms have their own unique benefits, like:

• Invigorating, relieving and soothing tired muscles
• Helping to create heat during massage to aid circulation
• Nourishing the skin with natural ingredients

ADD CBD Cosmetic Enhancer, 2000mg

Ok, so technically this isn’t a CBD muscle balm… but hear us out.

Already tried all the muscle balms going and found your ultimate favourite, but want to try a CBD out?

Before you shelf your current muscle balm and switch to CBD, maybe you could come to a compromise and use a CBD cosmetic enhancer like this one instead.

Simply add a few drops of ADD CBD to your existing muscle balm and you get the best of both worlds!

If you love the upgrade, then you could also add it into your face creams, body washed, hand creams, face masks and pretty much any beauty product – handy, eh?
