What better way to prep for spring than by splurging on a CBD-infused spa treatment?

Post-winter, we could all use a little extra self-care, right? If you really want to treat yourself right, go to a spa where cannabis is on the menu. CBD has been celebrated for its wellness benefits ranging from anxiety-relief to inflammation reduction, and it’s on the radar of some of our favourite beauty influencers right now. So if you’re curious, but don’t know where to start with this well-loved cannabinoid, why not let a pro introduce you?

If you’re wondering what kind of places, exactly, are dipping a toe into the cannabis world, you might be surprised – these spas are anything but new-age. Here are a few of the epic-looking CBD spa treatments across the world.
