A topical product infused with cannabidiol (CBD) designed to be applied directly to the skin for targeted relief.
CBD interacts with local cannabinoid receptors to reduce inflammation, ease pain, and improve mobility.
Look for natural ingredients like menthol, arnica, shea butter, or essential oils that enhance CBD’s soothing effect.
Full-spectrum salves contain a range of cannabinoids, providing the entourage effect, while isolates only contain pure CBD.
Popular brands include Charlotte's Web, Lazarus Naturals, CBDistillery, and Medterra.
High-potency salves (500 mg or more) offer deeper pain relief, while lower doses work best for mild discomfort.
Apply a small amount directly to the affected joint and massage it into the skin for optimal absorption.
Ideal for conditions like arthritis, tendonitis, and sports injuries, providing localized relief without systemic side effects.
CBD salves are generally safe with few side effects. However, always perform a patch test for potential skin reactions.
You can find premium CBD salves online, in wellness stores, or at dispensaries. Look for products with third-party lab testing.
