Tendinitis is a painful condition of the tendons; Can CBD Balm offer you pain relief?

Spread the word

Tendinitis is the inflammation of a tendon, most commonly from overuse but it can also be from infection or rheumatic disease. Your tendons, the strands of connective tissues between your muscles and bones which help you move can become inflamed and therefore painful.

Symptoms of tendinitis include pain, swelling and stiffness which can impact the ability to perform daily activities. Traditional treatment for tendinitis may include resting the area, applying ice, physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medication or possibly surgery. However, with CBD products becoming so popular the question remains; Can it help tendinitis?

What is CBD Balm?

CBD Balm is a topical product applied directly to the painful area via the skin. Unlike creams, which have a high-water content, CBD balms are oil- or butter-based. For example, Taylor’s CBD Balm uses Cacao Seed Butter, which provides a rich, preservative-free base. Because balms don’t contain water, they don’t require artificial preservatives, making them a more natural option.

How does CBD Balm work?

Generally, CBD Balm is used for pain relief. When applied to the skin, the CBD will bind with the Cannabinoid receptors in the dermis. These receptors are located throughout the body and activate the body’s natural ability to regulate pain and inflammation. When the balm applied it doesn’t enter the bloodstream, it targets the affected area directly, making it a good option for localised relief, such as tendinitis in the fingers.

How to use CBD Balm?

Simply massage the balm into the affected area. Massaging not only helps to absorb the balm into the skin but also stimulates the blood circulation, enhancing its effects. Taylor’s CBD Balm, with 1000mg of CBD works quickly, typically within 15 minutes, to reduce inflammation.

The best part? You can use CBD Balm as often as needed since it doesn’t enter your bloodstream.

How long will the effect of pain relief last?

It depends, CBD Balm can last a few hours or even longer. The great thing is that because it doesn’t enter the blood stream, you can apply it as and when needed. It all depends on your own body and the severity of the pain. The key to getting the best results is consistency.
