There’s nothing quite like a good workout. That feeling after you’ve finished a hard set, crushed a personal record, or simply moved in a way that feels good is unbeatable. Whether you consider yourself an avid athlete, a weekend workout warrior, or anything in between, you’re probably familiar with the soreness that can set in after a workout. While stretching, ice baths, and proper hydration are all great ways to combat those post-workout aches, we’ve got one more tool to add to your recovery repertoire! Meet our NEW Recovery Roll-On, a CBD gel stick formulated to provide your body with fast relief so you can get back out there and keep moving.

 

Meet Recovery Roll-On: Our New CBD Gel Stick for Muscle Recovery

 

What is Recovery Roll-On?

We’re thrilled to introduce you to our newest CBD gel stick, Recovery Roll-On! This powerful CBD topical is not only concentrated with 750mg of our premium CBD, but also boasts cooling menthol and soothing white willow bark extract. If that wasn’t enough, the Recovery Roll-On’s non-greasy, fast-drying formula can be rolled right onto the skin – because the last thing you need is to be slowed down! 

 

How does it work?

The Recovery Roll-On is applied topically and showcases three tried and true active ingredients: full-spectrum CBD, menthol, and white willow bark. Each provides its own list of benefits, and together they make an unstoppable team! 

When applied topically, CBD interacts with cannabinoid receptors in the skin, promoting relief from the outside in! Topical CBD is known for its soothing and relieving properties. CBD’s powerful ability to soothe skin irritations, sore muscles, and body aches make it the perfect ally for athletes. Bonus points if you take a dose of your daily drops or gummy after a tough workout too!

 

Key Ingredients

Menthol:

We’re all familiar with the cooling sensation of menthol. It’s often used in sprays, patches, and creams that are used to target muscle recovery, muscle aches, and even joint discomfort. Menthol, considered a form of cold therapy, triggers cold-sensitive receptors resulting in an increase in blood flow. Not to mention, applying the Roll-On is much less cumbersome than walking around with an ice pack attached to your knee!

 

White Willow Bark:

For thousands of years, white willow bark extract has been used to help relieve sore muscles and achiness. The extract used in our Recovery Roll-On consists primarily of a phytochemical called salicin, but also features other supportive compounds including polyphenols and flavonoids. While flavonoids and polyphenols may play a supporting role in this function, salicin is the star of the show. 

 

When you should use our CBD gel stick

You can’t always take an ice bath, but you can take our CBD gel stick with you wherever you go! Whenever you feel that achiness in your muscles, soreness in your back, or discomfort in your joints, reach for your Recovery Roll-On. Relief begins in as little as 30 minutes, and the best part is that you can use this CBD gel stick as frequently as you’d like!

 

We can’t wait for you to try our newest product! As always, reach out to our dosage support team (dosage@myeq.com) with any additional questions or if you’d like to know how you can add Recovery Roll-On to your existing CBD routine.
