Cannabis Topicals

Cannabis topicals in Denver

The ever-expanding cannabis industry continually presents opportunities for more diverse product lineups that precisely align with consumers’ needs.

For those who are interested in enjoying the benefits of marijuana, but who don’t want to smoke in order to experience the therapeutic effects of cannabis, finding quality cannabis topicals in Denver is an ideal alternative. These products are highly effective without producing mind-altering effects.

What are topicals?

Topicals are THC-infused lotions, balms, oils, and salves that are absorbed through the skin for localized relief of pain, soreness, and inflammation. Some topicals are infused with other essential oils along with the THC to enhance their efficacy or to aid with relaxation.

The best attribute of cannabis topicals is the fact that they can provide localized relief from certain symptoms without the user having to ingest anything. This means that topicals offer the same therapeutic benefits of marijuana without the cerebral effects of other delivery methods.

The cannabis plant is cultivated in two principal varieties (marijuana and industrial hemp) and is composed of over 200 types of cannabinoids. These active components have been shown to have pain-killing and anti-inflammatory properties when applied to the skin.

How do topicals work?

Cannabis topicals are applied directly to the skin, and massaged so they can be thoroughly absorbed; throughout this process, the vast majority of the active compounds in the topical product (such as THC) are absorbed into the dermal layer of the skin, meaning they are never released into the bloodstream.

The result is that topicals provide highly localized relief without causing any sort of intoxication. A very minimal amount of THC could be absorbed into the bloodstream, but it is negligible, so users aren’t likely to notice anything beyond a mild sense of euphoria.

Because of their non-psychoactive nature, topicals are a popular choice among everyone from athletes to the elderly and beyond. Anyone who experiences persistent joint pain, muscle pain, inflammatory skin conditions, or even anxiety may be able to find relief with the help of cannabis topicals.

What types of topicals are there?

There is a wide range of cannabis topicals available on the market, including THC-infused lotions and balms, creams and salves, and bath bombs, patches, suppositories and lubricants. This varied product selection means that it’s easy for everyone to find a topical that can aid in mitigating their specific ailment, or that can simply help them relieve the tension that builds up physically over the course of a stressful day.
