In university, I twisted around to crack my back, something I'd done probably 3 billion times before, but this time was different. Something clicked, cracked, moved in my back. An inhale or an exhale felt as if a brick slammed against glass, an explosion of sharp agony. I remember being at an outdoor event with my peers & trying to keep the tears in.
Luckily, my school campus had adequate healthcare services & I ended up doing an entire semester of weekly physical therapy sessions with state-of-the-art technology for around $60 bucks total. The ache subsided. I graduated the next semester. I could breathe easy, literally. But, as I said, those injuries don't just vanish. It's still there all these years later. I still feel a dull discomfort.
It's there in a ball of tightness in my right shoulder blade. It's there when Fred places his arm on my shoulder as we cuddle at night & I have to gently move his hand a few inches so my scapula doesn't spasm.
While the soreness didn't go away completely, physical therapy genuinely made a huge difference. My acupressure mat & pillow (a mat with tiny spikes on it) relieve tension & curb muscle spasms. CBDMEDIC helps me the same way but has the added advantage of being able to use it on-the-go.
I'm not busting out my acupressure mat in the middle of a press trip hiking through Lompoc, California, but I can easily squirt a pea-sized amount of CBDMEDIC Back & Neck Pain Relief into my hand to warm it up. I rub it on my shoulder blade. The scent releases immediately. Potent & invigorating. The smell reminds me of the minty gum my Nana used to always carry around in her handbag.
You'll start to feel the effects within 60 seconds; I know because I timed it. :]
I've tried quite a few CBD salves, balms, rubs, ointments, but CBDMEDIC is unique because the tingly feeling actually gives me a bit of extended relief. It's a soothing diversion. I've been working at my laptop for the past 90 minutes & I still feel the tranquilizing sensation. My shoulder doesn't feel tense, it feels open. It's genuinely effective & the natural ingredients are pretty swoon-worthy.
Menthol, camphor, argan oil, coconut oil (MCT oil), cottonseed oil, frankincense oil, hemp oil (THC-free), honeysuckle oil, jojoba seed oil, & myrrh oil. *Insert the drooling emoji & heart eyes emoji & maybe a couple plant emojis*
