CBD Massage (Our #1 Selling Massage)

The benefits of CBD Massage

The anti-inflammatory and pain relieving agents of CBD oil and Salves help reduce inflammation within muscles and joints, allowing the massage therapist to work more effectively and get deeper into the muscle. This in turn helps relax and escape stress. For athletes, CBD also has the reputation for accelerating the recovery and healing process of injured connective tissue.

 

What makes our CBD Massages different

Our Cannabis-infused massages are performed with the highest quality CBD Salve, it won the best CBD Salve at the Denver Cannabis Cup in 2018. It is known for its therapeutic properties, anti-inflammation and pain relief without the psychoactive effects. With our unique approach a sense of deep relaxation, and even a sense of “floating” is normal after one of our deep cannabis-infused massage session. We also include a take home Salve and Oil so that you continue your treatment at home.

 

Two more reasons why

Choose from our calming and soothing Lavender Calendula to help relax, or our Cayenne Pepper formula which helps warm the area of pain or soreness and increases blood flow.
