Learn About Topicals & How They Can Help You

Cannabis topicals are applied directly to the body’s surface. Typically non-intoxicating, they offer a wide range of therapeutic potential such as fast relief of inflammation and pain. This growing category of cannabis products includes lotions, soaps, lubricants, oils, sprays, patches, bath salts and balms, and often include essential oils and organic materials.

You may already be aware that cannabinoids such as THC and CBC influence the body’s natural endocannabinoid system (ECS), which regulates pain, pleasure, appetite, mood and sleep. Did you know that THC can bind directly to receptors present in skin, nerves and muscle tissues? Topical cannabis also makes its way into the bloodstream, where it further interacts with receptors.


The onset of effects from topicals varies, with some being felt right away and others taking hours. Because transdermal patches allow THC to enter the bloodstream, they can result in a high sensation. If you’re considering topicals as a treatment for arthritis, psoriasis, eczema, wounds, headaches, acne, chronic pain, joint inflammation or to increase sexual pleasure, don’t hesitate to ask us for further information.
