CBD salve is commonly used for various therapeutic purposes due to their potential benefits. Some reasons people use CBD salves include:
- Pain Relief: CBD is believed to have anti-inflammatory properties, which may help alleviate muscle and joint discomfort when applied topically.
- Skin Health: CBD salves can potentially moisturise and nourish the skin, and may provide relief for certain skin conditions due to its soothing properties.
- Relaxation and Calming Effect: The application of CBD salve may promote relaxation and a sense of calm due to its potential interaction with the endocannabinoid system.
- Localised Relief: When applied directly to the affected area, CBD salve targets specific regions of the body, providing localised relief.
- Non-Psychoactive: CBD is non-psychoactive, meaning it doesn’t produce the “high” associated with THC, making it a popular choice for those seeking natural relief without intoxicating effects.
What is CBD
How CBD salve works?
CBD, short for cannabidiol, is a compound derived from the hemp plant. Not to be confused with the marijuana. Cannabinoids like THC and CBD interact with the human body via the endocannabinoid system (ECS for short). The ECS is responsible for regulating bodily functions like sleep, our immune systems, as well as mood. However, where THC produces a tell-tale ‘high’, CBD is entirely non-euphoric. This has made it a very attractive, very legal option for many looking to incorporate it into their lifestyle to balance their health and wellbeing.
The Endocannabinoids System (ECS)
Studies indicate that CBD binds to CB1 (one of your brain’s endocannabinoid receptors) at a different spot from where other cannabinoids normally bind to the receptor. This process, called allosteric modulation, leaves the binding site free, but changes the shape of the receptor so that it has a weaker binding affinity — rendering it less responsive.
Although decreasing your body’s endocannabinoid response might seem counterintuitive, many disruptions to the endocannabinoid system actually stem from an overactive system. If your body struggles with the burden of constant anxiety or excess weight, then your receptors are probably being overstimulated, and CBD could give your endocannabinoid system the break it needs.

How CBD salve works?
CBD topicals, such as salves, lotions, and balms, work by interacting with the endocannabinoid system (ECS) in the skin. The ECS is a complex network of receptors and neurotransmitters that play a role in regulating various physiological functions, including pain sensation, inflammation, and immune response.
When CBD is applied topically, it is absorbed through the skin and interacts with cannabinoid receptors in the peripheral nervous system and immune cells. This interaction may influence the ECS to help regulate pain signalling, reduce inflammation, and promote overall balance within the body’s tissues.
Additionally, CBD’s potential anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties may contribute to its therapeutic effects when applied directly to the skin. It is believed that CBD may modulate the activity of certain neurotransmitters and cytokines involved in the inflammatory response, which can potentially lead to relief from localised discomfort and promote skin health.
It’s important to note that while CBD topicals may offer benefits for some individuals, the specific mechanisms of action and efficacy can vary based on factors such as the quality of the product, individual biochemistry, and the nature of the condition being addressed.
