What are marijuana topicals?
Balms, creams, roll-on salves, sprays, and even bath salts—all infused with cannabis. There are probably more ways to get therapeutic THC and CBD directly where you need than you ever could have imagined.
No matter how you prefer to consume, don’t overlook topicals, especially if you’re using cannabis for neuropathic pain, headaches, and especially skin inflammation.
Will I feel it?
Topicals do not get you high—at least not to the degree of intoxication (some users describe a “lift”; your mileage may vary). Whether you opt for a THC- or CBD-based topical, the mode of consumption—application to the skin—offers all the therapeutic benefits with no psychoactivity. Cannabinoids in topicals do readily penetrate to the bloodstream, so the closest to a traditional “high” will likely be a slight local tingling.
Topicals are used for myriad reasons. Athletes use CBD for recovery, soreness and strain. There are formulas for menstrual cramps, inflammation, headaches, and other physical pains. Depending on preference and your pain location and level, you can go classic with a cream or get a little bit fancy with a balm or a soak.
How do I choose a topical?
Marijuana topicals come in a wide variety of options and can help with many ailments. The best way to know which one is right for you is to read the descriptions on the website or box. Here are some of the topicals available on Eaze:
