Best CBD Cream for Pain , Top CBD Topicals [Reviews & Our Picks] May 2019

Cannabis is now consumed in so many ways. Who would have imagined this? Perhaps, it is just a testament to the power and versatility of the plant and its benefits. Enter the development of a new mode of consumption – cannabis-infused topicals (in the form of CBD/Hemp). Becoming more and more popular – because the perception of using CBD for pain and other medical purposes has changed drastically – they are safe, easy-to-use and efficient.

Just like other cannabis’s modes of consumption, there are a good amount of cannabis topicals brands on the market, and researching for hours just to purchase one lotion is not the way to spend your time. Not to worry, we’ve got your back – let’s take a look at the best CBD cream for pain and get a good grip on the products right now!

What is a CBD Topical?

Did you know… CBD Extract is available for your entire skin care/beauty regime.

To put it simply, cannabis topicals are cannabis- infused balms, salves, lotions, and oils applied to skin and absorbed directly into the bloodstream. So the potential for great and diverse products here is endless – you can even find CBD in cosmetics such as lip balms, body butters… or skin and hair care products. Basically, your entire beauty and/or skin care regime can include CBD extract for that extra health boost any time of the day and we're going to explore those options below.

Who Should Use CBD Cream for Pain?

It is an especially attractive option for those who don’t want to experience a head change, or anything cerebral which is what cannabis is most known for. It is common to see cannabis topicals as only for those with pain, soreness, inflammation. But CBD topicals are able to do much more than that – they can be your best ally in the battle to aging. Always consult your doctor of physician before using any medication including CBD.

Cannabis Basics: Hemp, CBD, and THC

To be clear for your shopping research needs, let’s explain a little bit. Three main cannabis plant strains need to discussed here: those with THC, those grown high in CBD and those that are grown simply as industrial hemp. Topicals are not popularly made with high THC plant extracts as THC highs are best smoked, vaped or orally consumed. Cannabis plants grown with residual amounts of THC and grown for their fiber – mostly for topicals and sometimes for fun stuff like specialty paper products and fabric – produce hemp. Then there are cannabis plants high in phytocannabinoids, which react amazingly well with human endocannabinoids to benefit us in oh, so many ways. To sum it up, CBDs get our bodies to homeostasis – that ultimate state of balanced and sustained health.

Excited yet? It’s time to jump to our list of top CBD Topicals.

    I’ve been using CBD for a few weeks now and saw great improvement after taking it the first day. I had knee pain from an unknown cause that prevented me from being able to do my chores easily.

  2. Moose Show says

    FYI, 1 gram = 1000 milligrams. You wildly misstate this in the review of Balm by LoveCBD.

    1. Jeremy Freeman says

      Thanks Moose for your comment… Yes you are correct: 1gram = 1000mg. What is meant in the review is the 10 gram jar contains only 100mg of CBD so the other 900mg does not contain CBD. Similarly the 30 gram LoveCBD Balm jar contains only 300mg of CBD

  3. Rivas m says

  4. Roger says
