of Hemp Oil for Massage
The internet is awash
with information about hemp seed oil, better known as hemp oil. Some people
claim that the oil contains terpenes and THC, the psychoactive compound which
gives people a head high, which is not valid. So, what makes up the hemp oil?
According to researchers, these oils are mainly made up of unsaturated oils,
vitamin D, amino acids, and other essential fatty acids (omega-3 and omega-6).
They extract the oils from the seeds using a few different methods. One of the
main ways to extract is called CO2 extraction. The supercritical (or
subcritical) CO2 method uses carbon dioxide under high pressure and extremely
low temperatures to isolate, preserve, and maintain the purity of the medicinal
oil.

In the recent past, hemp oil has gained a lot of
popularity in massage parlors. But why use hemp massage oils instead of the
normal ones in the market? Many people wonder since both appear similar in many
ways. The hemp oil contains compounds which boost the health of the skin during
massage.
What
features make hemp massage oils useful?
They
are non-comedogenic
There is a strong
chemistry between the oil's lipids and the ones produced by the skin. When the
two lipids react, they cleanse and open up clogged pores. Healthy skin produces
linoleic acid, but in case of an infection, it produces oleic acid, which blocks
the pores. The hemp oil contains linoleic acid, which unblocks the pores,
giving the person a fresh feeling.
Hemp
oil is a humectant
This means it draws
moisture into the skin and therefore, able to minimize dehydration. Conditions
such as cracking of the skin, weak scalp, and dandruff are caused by lack of
enough moisture. To get rid of these conditions, masseuses infuse hemp oil in
their formulas.
Contains
a myriad of nutrients
The hemp oil contains different
essential nutrients which are crucial in managing the health of the skin. For
instance, the skin contains amino acids and tocopherols which help in the
formation of proteins. Other nutrients include calcium, magnesium, potassium,
copper, and other vitamins which are essential for keeping the skin healthy.
It
treats skin diseases
Besides keeping the skin
glowing and giving the person a fresh feeling during the massage, these tyoes
of oils also treats several skin conditions. These include:
1. Eczema
2. Psoriasis
3. Dermatitis
4. Acne rosacea
The oil is beneficial in
the treatment of the diseases due to the presence of essential fatty acids
(EFA).
How
masseurs use the oil in massage
To
strengthen the nails
Hemp oil contains calcium and
magnesium, which keep the nails strong. The oil is gently applied on the
fingernails and toenails then let to dry naturally. Research findings show that
the oil that is applied prevents the nails from breaking.
Removing
dry skin
If you have dry irritated
skin, the masseurs apply the oil into the affected part of the skin then cover
it with a piece of cloth. The cloth prevents air from penetrating the part
being massaged, which could hinder the process.
Bottom-line
Hemp oil is the future of
massage parlors. It not only helps in keeping the skin glowing but also treats
other skin ailments by default.
