THC and/or CBD-infused bath salts are more than a way to immerse yourself, literally, in your favorite herb. Once absorbed, the cannabinoids influence the CB2 receptors in your skin, which in turn stimulate the endocannabinoid system to offer real health benefits.
Soaking in a warm tub filled with cannabis bath salts can relax the mind as well as the body. Stress levels drop, muscles relax, and pain can be treated at the source. Topicals can also reduce inflammation to ease allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, and arthritis for some patients.
Long baths in cannabis-infused water can also increase blood flow and hydrate the skin. This can make you look younger and help with a variety of skin conditions including eczema, dandruff, and psoriasis. It can also ease menstrual cramps and headaches.
