Intro to Cannabis Bath Salts
What are Cannabis Bath Salts?
Taking a bath is one of the most popular ways for people to relax. There are all kinds of bath oils, lotions, salts, and bombs designed to enhance the positive effects of taking a bath, and now, cannabis is in the game! The only difference with cannabis bath salts and bath bombs is that they’re infused with CBD and THC. Though relatively new to the market, these bath salts are growing in popularity every year, so let’s go over how they work and the type of benefits you could expect.
How do Cannabis Bath Salts Work?
The process of using cannabis bath salts work the same as other bath salts. Fill up your bathtub with water, drop the bath salts in, allow it to dissolve, and get in the tub!
The THC functions similar to a cannabis topical. Users won’t experience a psychoactive, euphoric high from using these bath salts, instead cannabis bath salts interact with the skin’s CB2 receptors, leading to therapeutic effects.
Advocates of cannabis bath products recommended soaking for at least 20 minutes to get the best results.
Expected Effects
As mentioned earlier, the effects from cannabis bath products are more therapeutic than euphoric. Some of the most common reported effects include:
Reduced pain and inflammation
Alleviated stress and anxiety
Hydrated skin
Relaxed muscles
There is no exact rule for what to expect from cannabis bath products. The user’s experiences will vary based on their body, length of time in the tub, amount of bath salts used, etc.
