Unpacking the Four Main Types of Cannabis Topicals

Hello, Joyful Shores community! 🌊 As we eagerly await our grand opening in Babylon, NY, we want to keep the excitement flowing by diving into the world of cannabis topicals. These versatile products are perfect for those looking to explore the benefits of cannabis without the psychoactive effects. Let’s break down the four main types of cannabis topicals so you can find the perfect fit for your needs!

1. Lotions and Creams

Lotions and creams are among the most popular cannabis topicals. These products are infused with cannabinoids and are designed to hydrate and soothe the skin. They’re great for targeted relief, whether you’re dealing with dryness, irritation, or localized pain. Just massage a little into the affected area, and let the goodness soak in!

2. Balms and Salves

Balms and salves are thicker than lotions and typically have a higher concentration of cannabis. They often contain additional ingredients like essential oils for extra soothing effects. Perfect for muscle soreness or joint pain, these products create a protective barrier on the skin, allowing the cannabinoids to penetrate deeper. Rub them in and feel the relief!

3. Transdermal Patches

As we discussed in a previous post, transdermal patches are a unique way to deliver cannabinoids through the skin and into the bloodstream. These patches provide long-lasting relief and a consistent dose, making them ideal for those seeking targeted effects without the need for frequent reapplication. Just stick one on, and you’re good to go!

4. Bath Products

Who doesn’t love a good soak? Cannabis-infused bath bombs and salts are a luxurious way to relax while enjoying the benefits of cannabinoids. These products can help relieve tension and soothe sore muscles while providing a delightful aromatic experience. Just fill your tub, toss one in, and unwind!

Why Choose Topicals?

Cannabis topicals offer localized relief without the high, making them perfect for anyone looking to explore the healing properties of cannabis without psychoactive effects. They can help with pain, inflammation, and skin conditions, all while leaving your skin feeling nourished.
