The Benefits of CBD-infused Lubricants for Sex Are Many!

In this new article at Men's Health, writer Gabrielle Kassel went looking for "The 15 Best CBD Lubes, According to Sex Educators and Sex Havers.", and she reached out to me about the benefits as well as some other considerations when it comes to CBD Infused Lubricants. Here is my symposis of the interview, with a link to the full article below.

Heather Jeffcoat, DPT

CBD, a non-psychoactive compound from the marijuana plant, is explored for its vasodilator properties, with a focus on how CBD-infused lubricants can enhance blood flow to intimate areas, which ultimately expedites the arousal process. With the growing presence of CBD-infused lubricants, a light is being shed on their potential impact on sexual well-being.

As I mentioned in the article:

Increased blood flow is an essential part of the arousal process, helping to encourage the genitals with blood and ultimately increase sensation and sensitivity.”

I continue to emphasize the significance of increased blood flow in promoting genital arousal, citing CBD-infused lubricants as a supporting agent in heightening sensation and sensitivity. The increased blood flow induced by CBD may aid in muscle relaxation, facilitating more comfortable penetration and creating potential benefits for individuals with pelvic floor dysfunctions marked by muscle tightness. The broader advantages of using CBD-infused lubricants, including pain reduction and an enhanced sexual experience, are underscored.

I proceed by noting,

Adding in lubricant has many benefits, including reducing pain and enhancing the sexual experience.” Factors to consider when selecting a CBD lubricant include ingredient scrutiny to avoid allergies, the necessity for individualized experimentation to determine the optimal dosage for users, and the importance of CBD concentration. Adding that amounts vary from product to product, though the best CBD lubes have at least 100 mg of full-spectrum CBD. The safety of CBD lubricants is explored, with a reminder of the essential role of lubrication in minimizing friction and the risk of micro tears during sexual activity. A skin test is recommended to identify any potential sensitivities before widespread application.

In conclusion, the article serves as a comprehensive guide, providing insights into the potential benefits and considerations surrounding CBD-infused lubricants, Men's Health Top Rated CBD-infused Lubricants, and encourages a balanced and pleasurable approach to sexual well-being.

What Our Patients Have to Say

Testimonial by Ann V.

I wish i could give this place 10 stars!!  I have been suffering from vaginismus for 5 years and never found the cure to it. I had seen an ob/gyn and he diagnosed me with vaginismus and told me i needed a surgery to cure my condition, which i refused to do. He also referred me to a PT that he works with, i had given them multiple calls and they never responded back to me, so i started searching yelp for another PT. I am SO HAPPY I found Heather's office! I was working with Laureen, and with her guidance and techniques i was able to be cured from vaginismus in only 2 1/2 short months!!! I couldn't believe how quickly their program worked for me! I am forever grateful and thankful from Heather, and Laureen! They are the absolute best at what they do!

I was hopeful but frankly skeptical when the doctor treating me for Interstitial Cystitis recommended that I go to Heather for physical therapy. Medication and diet helped control my IC symptoms, but I had never heard of physical therapy being used to treat IC. The education and treatment I received from Heather was a revelation. She explained that the pain I experienced with IC had helped create a cycle of muscle guarding which affected the entire pelvic area. I had no idea of the amount of tension being held there. No wonder my husband and I had not been able to have sexual intercourse for years!

My last appointment with Heather was over 6 years ago but I still think of her every day. I don’t take for granted that I can easily get out of bed, care for my two active and busy young boys, run, play tennis, clean my house, or sit at a desk for several hours at a time. None of these tasks were easy for me before meeting Heather. Eight years ago my car was struck from behind by a tractor trailer that was estimated to have been speeding. I spent 3 years working with different PTs and Drs trying to heal and move on with my life. When I became pregnant and the hormone relaxin that “relaxes” all the joints of the body and the additional weight gain erased all my progress and I was suddenly in a lot of pain again. My OB sent me to Heather for one last try.

Before I was referred to Heather Jeffcoat I was living in a nightmare. I had been married to my husband for three years and I was suffering from Vaginismus. That all changed when I visited my OBGYN and she said she knew of someone with a great success rate. To be honest I was hesitant at first because my first doctor had already told me that all I needed to do was order dilators from the internet and I should overcome my problem. She was wrong because I had followed the book on how to use the dilators with absolutely no advancements in my condition. However, that all changed when I went in for my first visit and Heather took the time to explain my condition and how we were going to work together to overcome it.

I remember leaving her office with a glimmer of hope that I could live a normal life. As my sessions continued I began to see immediate results. With only four sessions and a strict dedication to my home programs I was cured of Vaginismus. In the beginning of this process I was made aware that my health insurance company might not cover the costs, which was disappointing but today I can say one hundred percent that it was the best money I ever spent. Now thanks to Heather I am finally enjoying my life to the fullest with my husband. Thank you Heather, I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate all that you have done for me. I will never forget it. Those who are suffering from these types of conditions don’t be afraid because she makes you feel so comfortable and the end result is worth it. Good luck to you all and I hope you experience the success I have.

I just wanted to thank you for everything you've done for me for the past 19 months. I literally could not have reached my goals without you and your practice. You gave me the courage to keep moving forth with my treatment no matter how afraid and anxious I was. You were always there to answer questions and made this whole process so much easier than I expected it to be.
It's because of you that my marriage is on the right track, that I can get pregnant and that this part of my life is finally over. I really feel that Fusion Wellness is a team of people you can call family and are there to root for you and cheer you on until you reach your goals. There is nothing better than knowing I accomplished this with you guys by my side and as calmly and patiently as I needed. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for always being there and helping me reach my goals.

Testimonial by Jamie M.

I have been going to see Heather for a while now, and I can't tell you enough how much she has improved my quality of life. Heather specializes in issues like pelvic floor, but I see her for other orthopedic issues.
I have a lot of chronic joint pain and dysfunction issues (back, hips, neck) that require that have ongoing physical therapy maintenance. The effects of my problem joints/areas overlap and interconnect with each other in complex ways, so helping me requires really having a complete understanding of the entire skeletal and muscular system. Pain does not always appear where the problem actually is, the human body is a twisty, many-layered puzzle. I have an exercise program I do at home and I am very functional, but there are just something things I need a PT to help me out with.
