CannaBliss Pain Relief For Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness: A Case Study

3 Minute Read

This clinical study goes through the use of CannaBliss Pain relief for muscle soreness. Muscle soreness is not a medical condition by itself, but it is a symptom that can be a cause of concern. 

Muscle soreness occurs when a particular muscle undergoes stress during exercise or any physical activity. It does not happen immediately after the workout but usually 6 to 8 hours after. This is called Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS). 

DOMS does not weaken the muscle but helps in building its bulk and strength. However, the soreness can be limiting for athletes or trainers due to the inflammation, redness, and tenderness in the area.

Discussion 

Medical Cannabis oil containing Vijaya (Cannabis Sativa ) extractsignificantly reduces muscle aches and improves the rate of muscle recovery. Using medical cannabis oil post-workout helps the body recover, rebalance, and ultimately build muscle. 

It offers a number of physiological, biochemical, and psychological effects that have the potential to benefit athletes. Recent studies have shown that CBD oil can help relieve delayed onset muscle soreness and exercise-induced muscle damage, which naturally occurs after physical activity due tomicroscopic damage to musclefibers since its healing properties are known to reduce muscle pain, body aches, and inflammation. CBD is anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, antiemetic, antipsychotic, and neuroprotective.

Bananas contain potassium and are beneficial to reduce soreness.

Taking food rich in high protein content helps to build muscle as well as reduces soreness. It builds the muscle fibers to prevent soreness 

Hydration is extremely important. Drinking water detoxifies the body. Muscle releases lactic acid and other toxins during breakdown and one can see dark yellow urine when the body tries to flush it out. This condition is called Rhabdomyolysis.  

A hot water bath or sauna helps relieve the tension in the muscle fibers. However, an ice pack is effective in case of tenderness or inflammation. 

Conclusion  

According to Ayurvedic analysis, Muscle soreness is a sign of aggravatedvata.Vataaggravation usually causes loss of muscle mass when not treated properly. Vijaya extract Oil helps here by reducingvata (vata shamana) and increasing nourishment to the muscle tissue (Dhatu poshana). Furthermore, in this case, the patient could easily give up smoking as it was reducing his stress levels and keeping his mood elevated. 

Medical Cannabis Oil is extremely beneficial in such cases for both internal and topical use.
