CBD For Scoliosis

Know someone suffering from chronic back pain?

Table of Contents

Chronic and severe back pain can wreak havoc on your well-being.

Many with this pain may resort to over-the-counter medications like Advil or even prescription drugs to minimize the pain. However, not everyone may prefer taking pain meds regularly, mainly due to the risk of developing side effects.

This is where CBD can provide an alternative, by bringing a more natural source of pain relief. As a naturally occurring compound found in hemp, CBD may offer a variety of benefits for pain, muscle inflammation, joint issues and many other physical pain conditions.

In this blog, we will tell you all about how CBD can help those with scoliosis and other forms of chronic pain.

What Causes Scoliosis

Scoliosis is a condition where the spine curves towards one side, resulting in mild to severe pain which is usually chronic. It’s often congenital (develops during infancy), and in most cases, the alignment of the spine is corrected automatically as the bodies of the babies develop.

However, excessive pressure on the spinal disc or strained back muscles can also cause scoliosis in adults. Other causes may be diseases that directly affect the spinal cord, such as spinal muscular atrophy, cerebral palsy, syrinx, or spinal cord trauma.

In its most severe form, scoliosis may result in reduced space within the chest cavity, thereby causing breathing troubles. Some of the most common symptoms of this condition include:

Numbness or pain in the lower back
Shooting pain down the leg
Tendency to lean on one side
Unevenness in the length of legs
Unaligned shoulders or postural distortion
One side of the rib cage sticking out

What Is The Treatment for Scoliosis?

Most cases of mild scoliosis (in children as well as adults) don’t require any treatment per se. People with a spinal curvature between 25 and 45 degrees may be asked to wear braces or undergo chiropractic treatment. Other than that, they may try doing yoga, acupuncture, or other corrective exercises that can at least help to strengthen the body and minimize pain..

However, many people with more than 50 degrees of spinal curvature may require surgery as their scoliosis may put them at risk for other health complications.

How Can CBD Help With Scoliosis?

As many of you already know, CBD is known to have certain anti-inflammation and pain-relieving properties, which is why it may be useful for various types of pain. So while CBD isn’t a magic cure that can fix a curved spine, it may help people to at least manage their pain, and get on with their lives with less suffering.

CBD works by binding to our body’s endocannabinoid receptors. These receptors are responsible for regulating different functions related to pain management, stress, immune response, mood, etc.

When you’re in pain, your body’s natural endocannabinoids begin sending pain signals from your nerves to the brain.

However, once the CBD is absorbed by your bloodstream, it may mimic the chemical composition of the natural endocannabinoids to directly attach to the receptors. This may, in turn, slow down or minimize the transmission of the pain signals.

Moreover, CBD may help reduce inflammation-related pain, which often results from swelling tissues pushing against the nerve endings on the spine. This type of pain may be intense and almost unbearable, as the spine is usually more sensitive than the other areas.

CBD may reduce such inflammation by inhibiting COX2, which is an enzyme that contributes to pain sensations.

Can CBD Be Used For Scoliosis-Related Sleep Issues & Anxiety?

It’s no secret that chronic pain conditions make it difficult for people to get a good night’s sleep. And lack of sleep will automatically translate to both mental and physical fatigue, which may also affect the body’s ability to fight off diseases and infections.

However, the potential pain-relieving benefits of CBD may help improve your sleep quality. This may also aid your body’s natural healing abilities.

Aside from that, CBD may have a calming effect on your mind and body, which may be beneficial for people suffering from depression and anxiety due to pain.

How Can You Use CBD For Scoliosis?

CBD products come in a variety of forms to best suit your needs, from gummies, capsules, tinctures, oils, to balms and creams. Edibles like gummies and oils can also be added to your beverages and meals. This is especially beneficial for people who may have an aversion to the natural and slightly herbal flavor of hemp extract or MCT coconut carrier oil.

However, our products are known for having a very clean and minimal taste as we use organic hemp extract and organic MCT oil as our carrier oil vs. bitter tasting carrier oils like hemp seed, sunflower or grapeseed oil.

Can CBD Products Make You High?

CBD products are derived from hemps and should not make you high. We have Full-Spectrum products that contain less than 0.4% THC which is not enough to get you high.

Full-Spectrum products tend to be more effective than just CBD by itself as they contain several cannabinoids like CBDV, CBG & THCV in addition to just CBD. Each one may offer it’s own unique health benefits. If you’re still skeptical of even trace amounts of THC, you want to simply use our CBD Isolate products (oils, gummies & balm) which are 100% THC-Free.

What’s The Best CBD Dose for Scoliosis?

As for dosage, this will depend on several factors like the intensity of the pain, the bodyweight of the users, and how they react to the compound.

If you are looking for an easy to use dosage/product finder quiz, we have one that takes only a few seconds to use.

But if it’s important to note that if you have any existing medical condition or are currently using a prescription drug, we’d strongly recommend consulting a doctor or physician to help make the best decision for your personal health.

Furthermore, if you’re a first-time user, we’d suggest starting with a moderate dosage and letting your body adjust to the compound for at least 7 to 10 days. If you do not feel it immediately then we suggest taking the CBD 3 times daily to help saturate your body with more CBD and to also increase your dosage.
