There are many strategies to help soothe sore muscles, from foam rolling to warm compresses to ice baths. But a new trend is popping up in retail spaces across the country—hemp pain relief cream. The topical formulas can be applied directly to achy muscles, and are infused with ingredients like shea butter and arnica to soothe the skin while helping with pain. Some brands offer a cooling sensation, while others contain anti-inflammatories and menthol to reduce muscle spasms. And some have CBD, which may increase the natural endocannabinoids in your body to help alleviate pain by targeting certain receptors.

These creams are often targeted to specific areas of the body, such as back or neck. And they usually feature cold pressed hemp seed* extract that helps to moisturize the skin and add an extra layer of relief.

Most of these products also contain other scientifically proven analgesic ingredients, such as menthol or camphor, that act to distract your nerves from feeling pain and decrease inflammation. Plus, they are generally massaged into the achy area to improve circulation, which will only help to ease the discomfort you’re feeling.

This cream features a full-spectrum CBD (with less than 0.3% THC) and other feel-good ingredients, including shea butter and jojoba oil, to give you an extra soothing experience. It’s thicker than a normal lotion, and only a small amount is needed to soothe your achy muscles. And since the balm is long-lasting, you can apply it up to three times per day or as needed.
