We are first to introduce such a therapy. Inspired by medical discoveries, 100% natural and safe restorative Cannabis Therapy MD is based on exceptional active components: Cebidiol™, hemp oil, and poppy seed oil. Designed to care for extremely sensitive skin and skin with a damaged protective barrier, the Therapy guarantees skin restoration at 3 levels.
Let us first remind a few facts. Cannabis has been used in medicine ever since ancient times. Today, thanks to extensive research, it is experiencing a renaissance. It is all about phytocannabinoids contained in cannabis, and, strictly speaking, one of them, i.e. cannabidiol (CBD): a substance with unusual skin repair properties not found in other plants.
What is CBD?
CBD, i.e. cannabidiol, is the most important non-psychoactive (not influencing the psyche or behaviour) phytocannabinoid and offers numerous health benefits. It is a completely legal substance derived from industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa). CBD imitates the functions of natural endocannabinoids, i.e. substances produced in the human body. They are extremely important to us being responsible, among other things, for maintaining the balance of the whole body, including the skin’s functions.
CBD as an ingredient of future cosmetics
In order to find out more about CBD’s functions and influence on the skin, a “trip” back to the 1990s appeared necessary. That was when researchers discovered that human body produces compounds, i.e. endocannabinoids, which are, to a large extent, responsible for maintaining the balance of the whole body. At the time, it was proved that there are not enough endocannabinoids to allow the cannabinoid system to function properly. However, research conducted in 2007 by researchers at the University of Bonn became a breakthrough in the use of hemp in dermatology. This research confirmed that substances contained in hemp flowers soothe inflammatory symptoms accompanying skin allergies. Such conclusions intensified the search for alternative ways of treating dermatoses.
Cannabis Therapy MD
Arkana’s newest Cannabis Therapy MD line is based on the innovative combination of CBD (cannabidiol) and hemp and poppy seed oils. What gives the therapy the status of an unprecedented innovation is the use of Cebidiol™, which, thanks to its multilayer spheres, is stable and gradually released into the skin throughout the day, not only upon application. This is a significant feature because its effects are “gradual” and its results last much longer and are much more in-depth.
We emphasize that CBD is a safe and legal substance derived from genetically unmodified varieties and it does not contain gluten. Importantly, our products do not contain THC (an addictive fraction). CBD contained in Cebidiol™ has pain-relieving properties, soothes irritation and reduces cellular stress. It is worth highlighting that it is Arkana that has combined the effects of hemp oil with poppy seed oil which reinforces the effects of hemp oil and is a natural emollient rich in EFAs and vitamins. Furthermore, poppy seed oil has moisturizing, anti-inflammatory and healing properties. It is also worth noticing that both oils belong to the so-called “dry” oils meaning they are easily absorbed and leave no greasy and slippery film on the skin.
The original skin repair strategy at 3 levels
The skin repair therapy with the Cannabis Therapy MD line includes 3 stages:
- stage 1: natural BIO-cleansing, using Cannabis Clean Foam, which perfectly removes make-up, and Cannabis Solution, which refreshes the skin and soothes and eases irritation
- stage 2: removal of inflammatory response symptoms aimed at bringing instant relief to the skin. At this level CBD’s pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties have been used, creating cannabis serum applied during the procedure in the beauty salon. Moreover, in order to soothe inflammatory lesions, the only Snow Fungus Sheet Mask on the market with calming and moisturizing properties is applied.
- stage 3: repair and reinforcement of the skin’s protective barrier, using Cannabis Sleeping Mask for dysfunctional skin and the endocannabinoid massage (you can undergo the massage in the beauty salon).
Over-reactive and dysfunctional skin
CBD Therapy MD is designed for clients with over-reactive, extremely sensitive and stressed skin. Everyday care for such complexion is a real challenge. It is necessary to select products which will soothe and stop lesions, compatible with the recommended dermatological treatment and prevent possible disease recurrence upon its completion. We also need to remember that dysfunctional skin and skin with essential fatty acid deficiencies ages faster without appropriate support.
Necessary support for skin with psoriasis and eczema
Cannabis therapy is an ideal solution for those suffering from diseases such as eczema or psoriasis, who frequently cease treatment care because of long lasting and burdensome pharmacological treatment. The Cannabis Therapy MD dermocosmetics included in this line are safe, provide relief, improve the mood and will effectively support the whole process of treatment as well as restore the skin’s disturbed balance. It should be remembered that symptoms of skin disorders relate not only to the face area, but also to the whole body, including hands and feet. CBD Therapy MD line will be appreciated by diabetics whose dysfunction of skin shows through excessive dryness and disordered composition of hydro-lipid coat.
For vegans and vegetarians
The cannabis therapy is a therapy based on safe and completely natural ingredients. Hemp and poppy seed oils are cold-pressed and so they preserve their unique biological properties. Natural preservatives and antioxidants ensure safety of use. The ingredients are also distinguished by their fragrance, which is 100% floral and antiallergenic. Moreover, they are gluten-free. Thus, vegans, vegetarians and people with gluten intolerance will appreciate the line.
COMPLEX face and body care
Cannabis Therapy MD supports and repairs not only the facial but also the whole body skin. Cannabis Body Balm, Cannabis Hand Cream, Cannabis Foot Cream and special Cannabis Repair Ointment with strong repair effects are also available. Surely, this is the first comprehensive and completely legal cannabis BIOtherapy of its kind, which will allow you to discover a new dimension of professional skin care.
