Luxury CBD brand OTO has developed immersive CBD sensory spa experiences, accredited by CIBTAC.
From anxiety to sleep through to pain management and skin conditions, CBD is credited for its ability to benefit almost every area of our lives, as endorsed by wellness experts, medical professionals and beauty editors alike.
The International CIBTAC accreditation is available exclusively to spa partner therapists as part of a comprehensive training programme, 80 per cent of which can be delivered online.
OTO’s programme will educate therapists in the use of CBD and train them in performing the treatments to the OTO expected standards, bridging the gap between CBD education and use within the luxury hospitality, spa and wellness sectors.
OTO’s head of spa Helen Cain has created three sensory CBD-infused massage experiences that combine CBD products and massage oils with the use of sound therapy and the art of crystal that work to deliver physiological and physical effects.
The Focus, Amplify and Balance treatments are designed to help recipients find space in a challenging world.
OTO’s new treatments and products have been designed with both customer and therapists in mind as OTO’s massage oils have an anti-inflammatory effect which can soothe wrists which are sore from massaging.
This, along with the design of the massage protocol, can help prevent therapists from experiencing repetitive strain injury.
The OTO CIBTAC course will allow therapists to master the unique sensory treatment protocols, as well as further their understanding of CBD and the endocannabinoid system.
Cain said: “In a time when consumers are looking for a moment of calm, we’ve developed a range of first of their kind full CBD sensory experiences; with a fully accredited course to further understanding within the industry.”
As part of a fully OTO immersive experience, each treatment begins with a shot of an OTO CBD Seltzer, followed by a 60- or 90-minute massage using targeted CBD oils with unique and beautifully curated soundscapes to allow the recipient to completely surrender to the treatment, with the use of crystals alongside.
