Can CBD Oil Relieve Joint Pain?

Did you know that 93% of French people* experience joint pain at some point in their lives? This pain can significantly impact quality of life: sleep disturbances, difficulty engaging in leisure activities, professional constraints, not to mention the potential impact on family life. To better manage it, it's essential to understand its causes and discover solutions tailored to your situation.

The main causes of joint pain

Joint pain can have various causes, including:

1. Osteoarthritis

This is the most common cause of joint pain. It occurs as a result of progressive wear and tear of the cartilage, often linked to age or intensive use of the joint. People most at risk are:

• Seniors, due to the natural aging process.
• Overweight individuals, as weight puts increased pressure on joints.
• Athletes, whose joints are subjected to repeated stress.
• Postmenopausal women, due to hormonal changes that can affect bone health.

2. Arthritis

Unlike osteoarthritis, it is an acute or chronic inflammation of one or more joints. While arthritis can occur at any age and in all populations, its incidence increases with age. It encompasses different forms, including:

• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Psoriatic arthritis

3. Other triggers

Beyond osteoarthritis and arthritis, other causes can explain joint pain:

• Trauma (sprain, dislocation or fracture).
• Inflammation of the tendons or ligaments.
• Genetic factors.
• Certain illnesses (flu, gout, etc.).

Common symptoms

Despite the varied origins, the symptoms associated with joint pain are generally similar: stiffness, swelling, joint weakness, difficulty moving or performing certain everyday tasks.

  

How to relieve joint pain quickly?

Fortunately, there are some solutions to prevent and soothe joint pain:

• Aquatic activity: For anyone suffering from joint pain, osteoarthritis, or arthritis, swimming is an ideal, gentle sport that helps relieve joint, muscle, and bone pain. The buoyancy helps limit pressure on joints, making them lighter and less painful. Additionally, this sport reduces pain and maintains joint mobility. Of course, in the event of an acute attack and severe joint pain, it's best to rest and avoid swimming.

• Massage: When suffering from joint inflammation or pain, massage is an effective way to relax joints, keeping them supple and healthy. Massage is also beneficial for reducing swelling and pain due to osteoarthritis, improving joint mobility, and relieving tension and stress . Massage can therefore have an immediate soothing effect on pain.

• Exercise: Regularly performing some exercises can help relieve joint pain and strengthen joints. They help protect joints by strengthening the muscles surrounding them. They also lubricate and maintain joints by promoting the production of synovial fluid in the cartilage. These exercises should be prescribed by a doctor or healthcare professional to avoid aggravating painful joints and thus having a counterproductive effect.

• Take care of your diet: To prevent joint pain and all the different forms of osteoarthritis, certain foods should be favored. Particularly foods rich in antioxidants (carotenoids, vitamin C, vitamin E) such as carrots, tomatoes, dried fruits (goji berries, cranberries, prunes) and oilseeds (pecans, almonds, hazelnuts). The latter help neutralize free radicals released during inflammatory reactions. In addition, it is strongly recommended to incorporate turmeric into your daily diet. It is a spice known as a powerful antioxidant that helps calm inflammation of the digestive system but also of the joints. Be careful, however, it is not recommended to consume turmeric if you are on anticoagulant treatment because it thins the blood.

• Some people consume CBD: CBD, a molecule that comes from the hemp plant (or cannabis sativa), is increasingly consumed for joint comfort. A scientific study published in 2015 highlights the potential benefits of CBD on joints. CBD has a direct action on the endocannabinoid system, and more specifically on receptors linked to anxiety and pain. Be careful, there is currently no recognized study highlighting the link between taking CBD and the reduction of pain. It should not be confused with THC, the psychotropic molecule of cannabis, CBD does not alter the state of consciousness and does not cause side effects or addiction. CBD can be consumed in several different forms: oils, infusions, gummies, chewing gum, candies, honey or even CBD chocolate . Although consumed by more and more people, CBD does not currently benefit from any pain claims and therefore cannot be sold by highlighting this beneficial effect.

What is organic CBD oil?

 

Organic CBD oil is a blend of organic vegetable oil and CBD extracted from organic hemp. The product comes in a small bottle with a dropper.

Just a few drops of oil are enough to relieve everyday ailments such as stress, sleep problems, poor emotional management or even muscle and joint comfort.

To feel the effects quickly, the oil drops should be placed under the tongue because it is an area rich in blood capillaries, which explains why this method of administration has a faster action. If the bitter taste of CBD is disturbing, the oil drops can also be put in drinks and dishes but the effectiveness will be altered.
