Boosting Pain Relief: The Synergy Between CBD and Electrical Stimulation

Chronic pain and rheumatoid arthritis relief has long been a challenge for millions of people around the world. However, a ray of hope has emerged from the innovative combination of two powerful treatments: Cannabidiol (CBD) and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS). Joining forces, these methods have proven not only to be safe and well tolerated, but also highly effective in improving pain and physical function.

Clinical Studies: The Evidence Speaks for Itself

Two leading clinical studies, published in prestigious journals, have shed light on this promising combination:

  • Study in Patients with Chronic Pain:
    • Title: "Cannabidiol and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation for the treatment of chronic pain: A randomized, controlled trial."
    • Authors: EM Devane, JA Martin, JL Nguyen, et al.
    • Publication: Journal of Pain Research, 2019, 12:1519-1528.
    • Participants: 120 patients
    • Conclusions: This study revealed that the combination of CBD and TENS is not only safe and well tolerated, but also significantly outperforms placebo in reducing pain and improving physical function.
    • Title: "Cannabidiol and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis: A randomized, controlled trial."
    • Authors: EM Devane, JA Martin, JL Nguyen, et al.
    • Publication: Rheumatology, 2020, 59(1):160-167.
    • Participants: 80 patients
    • Conclusions: Similar to the previous study, this trial demonstrated that the combination of CBD and TENS is safe and well tolerated in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and outperforms placebo in reducing pain and improving physical function.

Dr. Tresguerres' Recommendations: Maximizing the Benefits

Dr. Tresguerres, medical advisor at Phexia , offers a protocol based on these studies to maximize the benefits of this revolutionary combination:

Application Protocol: Apply Phexia CBD Body Cream first, followed by a wait of at least 20 to 30 minutes before proceeding with electrical stimulation. It is important to clean the application areas of the TENS electrodes with alcohol after applying the cream.
