Summary

The First book to bring together spa, and the herbal healing of Cannabis—with more than seventy-five recipes free of preservatives and major allergens that can be prepared in the home kitchen.

Cannabis spa isn’t new—cannabis has been used for thousands of years for external use in the traditional health practices of Eastern cultures. In locations where cannabis has renewed legal status today, cannabis spa potions such as lotions, salves, poultices, scrubs, and baths are being rediscovered as a healthy alternative for managing pain, soothing irritated skin, and enhancing the spa experience.

In The Cannabis Spa at Home, you’ll discover which spa preparations provide local healing—and which have potential for a more euphoric experience. You’ll also learn how to make:

• Refrigerated and shelf-stable cannabis lotions, creams, balms, and masks
• Emulsions, cannabis base oils, cannabis herbal poultices
• Aromatherapy essence water, cannabis bath salts, and foot and hand soaks
• Edible treats such as luscious spa nosh, hemp smoothies, and cannabis bhang
• Bath salt
• And much, much more!
