Lotions, Balms, and Salves:
These topicals are infused with cannabinoids like CBD, THC, CBG, and CBC for localized relief. They are applied directly to the skin and absorbed through the epidermis, targeting areas of muscle pain, joint inflammation, or skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis. The cannabinoids in these products do not typically produce psychoactive effects but work directly at the site of application to reduce inflammation, promote healing, and relieve pain. They are ideal for patients seeking non-psychoactive, localized relief.
Muscle Rubs:
Muscle rubs combine cannabinoids such as CBD, THC, and CBG with other therapeutic ingredients like menthol or camphor to deliver powerful relief from muscle aches and stiffness. These are applied by massaging directly into sore muscles or joints, providing a deep-penetrating effect that helps reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and soothe discomfort. Muscle rubs are particularly beneficial for athletes or those suffering from chronic muscle pain and arthritis.
Oils and Tinctures:
Oils and tinctures are highly versatile, sublingual products that can contain CBD, THC, CBG, CBC, and CBN in various combinations. Administered by placing a few drops under the tongue, they are quickly absorbed into the bloodstream, offering fast-acting relief for conditions such as anxiety, chronic pain, and insomnia. Tinctures can also be added to food or beverages, but sublingual absorption is preferred for quicker results. Full-spectrum options may provide the ‘entourage effect,’ where the combination of cannabinoids and terpenes works together for a more balanced medicinal experience.
Gummies:
Infused with cannabinoids such as CBD, THC, and CBN, gummies offer a convenient, discreet, and tasty way to consume medicinal cannabis. They are ingested orally, and once metabolized by the liver, the cannabinoids provide long-lasting relief. Gummies are particularly useful for managing chronic conditions like anxiety, pain, or sleep disorders, as they provide a slow, steady release of cannabinoids. CBN-rich gummies are often sought for their sedative properties, making them ideal for those with sleep issues, while CBD and CBG gummies are often used for daytime relief of anxiety or pain without the psychoactive effects of THC.
Bath Bombs & Bath Salts:
Bath products infused with cannabinoids like CBD, THC, CBN, and CBG are designed for full-body relaxation and relief. Dissolved in warm water, these products allow cannabinoids to be absorbed through the skin, helping soothe sore muscles, reduce inflammation, and promote relaxation. CBD bath bombs and salts are often used to alleviate stress and promote a sense of calm, while those infused with THC or CBN may be particularly effective for deep relaxation and sleep support. These are ideal for those looking to unwind after a long day or to relieve widespread pain and discomfort.
