As the new year kicks off and winter settles in, many people experience a familiar ache: stiff joints, sore muscles, and lingering pain from old injuries. The cold months can be brutal on the body, especially in places like Seattle, where chilly winds and damp weather are a daily occurrence. But don’t worry, there’s a natural way to combat this winter discomfort—CBD oil and balms.
Here’s why January and the entire winter season is the ideal time to start using Ron’s Balms & Botanicals CBD products and how they can help you power through the colder months.
Winter Woes: Why Your Body Hurts More in Cold Weather
If you’re wondering why your back, knees, or hands suddenly feel stiffer during winter, you’re not imagining things. Cold weather can increase pain sensitivity, and for those dealing with arthritis, muscle soreness, or chronic pain, winter can be particularly harsh. Here’s why:
- Cold temperatures tighten muscles: When the temperature drops, your muscles tend to constrict, which can lead to stiffness and soreness.
- Barometric pressure drops: When the pressure in the atmosphere decreases, it can cause joints and surrounding tissues to expand, creating discomfort, especially for people with arthritis.
- Less movement: Let’s be real, when it’s cold and rainy outside, it’s easy to skip your morning walk or gym session. Reduced physical activity means less circulation, which can lead to tight, achy muscles.
This is where CBD balms and oils come in as a game-changer for your winter routine.
The Power of CBD: Nature’s Winter Pain Reliever
CBD (cannabidiol) is known for its anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties, making it the perfect companion for anyone dealing with winter discomfort. Here’s how it can help:
- Relieves muscle tension and stiffness: Applying a CBD balm directly to sore areas like your back, neck, or legs can help loosen tight muscles and promote relaxation.
- Reduces joint inflammation: For those with arthritis or joint pain, CBD’s anti-inflammatory properties can reduce swelling and ease discomfort.
- Promotes circulation: Using a warming balm with ingredients like mint or rosemary can boost blood flow, improving flexibility and reducing stiffness.
At Ron’s Balms & Botanicals, we offer CBD balms and oils specially crafted to help you power through winter, whether you’re an athlete, an office worker, or someone recovering from an injury.
How to Use CBD Balms and Oils During Winter
Incorporating CBD into your daily winter routine is easy and effective. Here are some tips:
1. Start Your Morning with a CBD Balm
Before heading out into the cold, rub a small amount of our Extra Strength Mint CBD Balm or Rosemary CBD Balm onto problem areas like your lower back, knees, or shoulders. This will help loosen stiff muscles and prepare your body for the day ahead.
2. Post-Workout Recovery
If you’re committed to keeping up with your workouts despite the cold, kudos to you! But don’t forget to take care of your muscles afterward. Apply our Lavender CBD Balm post-workout to reduce inflammation and soothe tired muscles.
3. Evening Wind-Down
After a long day, treat yourself to a warm bath with our Herbal Wonder CBD Bath Tea, followed by a relaxing application of CBD oil on sore spots. This combo will help you unwind, relieve tension, and get a good night’s sleep.
