When searching for effective pain relief, it can be incredibly frustrating to find what works well for your lifestyle. CBD balm can be a great anti-inflammatory for individuals who like to massage painful areas with a product that travels further across the skin than a cream.
How to Use CBD Balm
Using CBD muscle balm is straightforward, but for maximum effectiveness and safety, it helps to follow a few best practices. Here’s a complete guide:
Before applying: 1. Wash and dry the skin to remove oils, sweat, or lotions. 2. This helps ensure maximum absorption of the CBD and active ingredients.
Apply a Small Amount to Affected Area: 1. Scoop out a small pea sized amount (depending on the area size). 2. Massage gently but thoroughly into the sore or tight muscle area. 3. Focus on deep tissue work if needed—especially for large muscle groups like thighs, shoulders, or back.
Allow time for the balm to fully absorb into the skin. Avoid covering it immediately with tight clothing if possible. Effects typically begin within 15–45 minutes and can last for 2–6 hours. Most products can be used 2–3 times daily.
Why CBD balm?
It is well known that when taken orally CBD can be great for relieving any anxiety and tension, but did you know that it is also a natural anti-inflammatory? When applied to the skin, molecules soak into the muscles and can provide relief from arthritis, sports injuries or other pain related conditions. HempWell CBD balm also contains menthol and eucalyptus which help support the CBD in its anti-inflammatory properties and help give you the best chance at relief.
Our CBD muscle balms are made from all natural and organic products and are hand crafted in our lab in York science park and guess what – they are vegan too! All our products are made using our organically grown hemp, which is grown from EU certified seeds on our farm in Europe. This means we can guarantee the quality of our CBD products and gives us trust that we have some of the best CBD balm on the market.
What Strength is right for me?
Our CBD balms come in two different strengths: 500mg and 1000mg.
500mg – Perfect for people with low level pain or are in recovery for minor injuries. In a 5ml scoop you would be applying 50mg of CBD to the affected area.

1000mg – For high maintenance pain conditions or painful injuries. In each 5ml scoop you would be applying around 100mg of CBD to the affected area.

2000mg? – We currently don’t offer any strength of CBD balm higher than 1000mg but for intense pain we would recommend our 2000mg pain relief cream which we promise contains ingredients that are just as good!

Nerve pain?
While CBD cream can be great for localised pain and inflammation, if you know your pain is related to nerves, you are much more likely to receive results from a CBD oil. You can read more about CBD pain relief for nerve related conditions here.
