CBD Topicals
CBD topicals are products infused with CBD intended for direct application to the skin, providing targeted relief to the specific area where they are applied. Unlike oral consumption, topicals primarily work on the surface of the skin.

How CBD Topicals Work:
CBD topicals interact with our bodies endocannabinoid system (ECS), which governs a range of physiological processes, including discomfort perception, swelling, and defensive responses. CBD, a cannabinoid compound found in the hemp plant, binds with the ECS receptors in the skin, muscles, and tissues, helping to reduce pain and inflammation.
These products do not enter the bloodstream, meaning that psychoactive side effects typically caused by THC are not a concern. CBD topicals are a safe and effective pain and inflammation management method without the risk of addiction or negative consequences.
CBD Topicals for Pain:
CBD topicals specifically designed for pain relief are available in various forms, such as creams, balms, and roll-ons, with unique properties and uses. Let's examine each category more closely.
CBD Topical Cream:
This topical contains moisturizing properties, and some CBD creams may also contain other beneficial ingredients, such as menthol or arnica, for additional benefits. CBD creams can be used on larger areas of the body or smaller areas that require more attention.
Topical CBD Oil:
These usually come in small bottles or droppers and contain carrier oil, such as coconut or olive oil, infused with CBD. Topical CBD oil provides more targeted relief to specific body areas and can be easily applied with a dropper or rubbed directly onto the skin.
CBD Topical Lotion:
Typically containing a moisturizing base and infused with CBD, CBD lotions provide potential benefits such as pain relief or reduced inflammation. These are lightweight and may be easier to apply to larger body areas.
CBD Topical Balm:
CBD balms are usually thicker and more concentrated than CBD creams or lotions. They are often formulated with a base of beeswax or shea butter and may contain other beneficial ingredients, such as essential oils. CBD balms are often used for targeted relief of pain or inflammation.
CBD Topical Roll-On:
This product comes in a small bottle with a rollerball applicator. CBD roll-ons can be easily applied to specific areas of the body, and the rollerball can help to massage the product into the skin for more targeted relief. CBD roll-ons come in various forms, including those designed for pain relief or relaxation.
