Cannabis for Athletes

Topicals are empowering athletes to do what they love, pain free and naturally.


The myth that cannabis and athletes are not a great mix is quickly being dismissed. In states where Cannabis is legal, a recent study has shown that 8 out of 10 users partake either shortly before or after exercise. These users are reporting that Cannabis actually helps to motivate them during workouts and, more importantly, improves their recovery. While not all athletes are cannabis users, most ARE looking for a means of improved athletic recovery. Cannabis topicals help bridge this gap.

Canna-Fusion‘s home state of Oregon is full of athletes and outdoor enthusiasts. With annual events such a Cycle Oregon and the many Portland area races hosted by Terrapin Events, you better believe there are some serious “cannathletes” out there competing.

Not all of them are recreational users though. Many are turning to products like Canna-Fusion Ultimate Salve to help battle their post-workout pain and inflammation. Cannabis topicals applied directly to the site of injury provide fast-acting relief without any psychoactive consequence.

Topical cannabis products produced from full spectrum extracts are most effective. Full spectrum extracts obtained from the whole cannabis plant contain high levels of cannabinoids and terpenes and therefore maintain all of their therapeutic properties. With solvent extractions many of these properties are lost. Full spectrum topicals, like those produced by Canna-Fusion, contain not only THC and CBD but also THC, THCV,  CBG, CBGA, CBDA, and CBC. 


When applied topically the combination of THC with CBD and other cannabinoids delivers a balanced effect without any high whatsoever. Natural terpenes complete the therapeutic picture by decreasing inflammation/pain and increasing absorption of the topical product.


Topicals are a great option when selecting a product that contains cannabis for athletes. They offer a safe and effective means of controlling post exercise “DOMS” or “delayed-onset muscle soreness”. When you exercise your muscles experience micro-trauma, which typically results in pain or discomfort. Once your body becomes accustomed to a type of exercise, DOMS tends to become more minimal, but even for the most elite athletes a bit of soreness is completely normal.

Topical cannabis empowers people to do what they love, pain free and naturally.

Topicals work by binding to the millions of cannabinoid receptors found within the skin. With most topicals (transdermal patches being the exception) THC and of other cannabinoids do not actually enter into the bloodstream at all. They only bind to the body’s CB2 receptors which is what allows them to work their magic. 


Because topicals do not enter the bloodstream, even products that contain THC, will not induce the typical “high” that smoking or ingesting cannabis would. This is what makes topicals a perfect option for athletes.

Cannabis and sports have long been thought of as not mixing well with one another. It is time to overcome this way of thinking and recognize the many benefits that cannabis for athletes has. We all know that living a healthy, active lifestyle is a vital component of wellness and cannabis helps promote well-being in a variety of ways as well. It only seems natural that the two join forces.

THC Infused Topicals For Pain

THC vs CBD – Which Cannabis Topical Is Right For me?

THC Infused topicals for pain

Shannon pushed things a little too hard on her run yesterday. She is paying for it today. Her calf muscles are extra tight and her lower back injury has flared up once again. She knows she needs to take it easy but still has a list a mile long of things to do. This includes picking us the kids from school and trekking them all over town to their extracurricular activities. It’s going to be a rough one, however Shannon knows that THC infused topicals are the perfect solution.

Shannon busts out her remedial cannabis infused oil from her purse, rubs some on at the site of her pain, and marches forth to conquer her day…. pain free.

People from all walks of life are turning to Cannabis topicals as a way to beat pain and inflammation, easily, effectively, and without any psychoactive effects. Let’s face it, not everyone out there wants or has the option to get high, every day, all day.

There are many of us who experience either chronic or acute pain but still have lives to lead, places to go, and people to see. But being high can affect the way we function in the world.

The thing is, we all very well know now that Cannabis is an amazing inhibitor of pain and inflammation. It is not all about the psychoactive effects. It is about the relief we can experience from this plant medicine. Topical Cannabis for pain is the answer for many. Topicals deliver both CBD and THC to the area of pain for maximum relief without an unwanted high.

Canna-Fusion, Oregon’s Premier Topicals

Cannabis infused oils and salves have been used for centuries and are by no mean a new thing. However, now that the mainstream use of Cannabis is once again on the rise topical cannabis for pain is becoming more available.

The question is, which are the best cannabis topicals for pain on the market? What are the differences between one product vs. another? And how do we choose a topical that is most effective?

Here we examine the difference between CBD Infused vs Full Spectrum THC infused topicals for pain management….

These days we are seeing a large variety of CBD infused product. CBD, or cannabidiol, is the compound that alleviates inflammation and pain. CBD infused topicals are derived from either hemp or CBD-rich cannabis stains bred to contain no more than 0.3% THC. Cannabis products containing less than 0.3% THC were removed from the federal list of controlled substances with the enactment of the Farm Bil in 2018. This is when we began seeing an increase in CBD infused products.

The fact of the matter is though, without THC something is lacking. Many experts believe the combination of THC and CBD is most effective when it comes to treating pain. You see, these cannabinoids work together synergistically to create an entourage effect. It is only full spectrum cannabis oil that contains all of the cannabinoids. Nature specifically designed these compounds to work together in unison. THC essentially magnifies CBDs anti-inflammatory effects, as do other important cannabinoids such as THCV,  CBG, CBGA, CBDA, and CBC found only in full spectrum oils.

The combination of THC, CBD, and these other cannabinoids provide the most balanced effect. When applied topically, there is absolutely no psychoactive consequence whatsoever. Natural terpenes found in full spectrum oil complete this therapeutic picture. Terpenes further aid in the reduction of inflammation and pain. Topical products that contain all of the above have proven to be, by far, most effective. This is not to say that CBD infused products are not effective. It is just that products containing even small amounts of THC have a more balanced effect to them.


In the words of Dr. Ethan Russo, “A severe price may be paid if cannabis-based medicines are devoid of THC.”


thc infused topicals for pain
Look For Product With the Most THC and CBD per Oz.

When selecting topical cannabis for pain look for a product that is full spectrum, organic, and packed full of cannabinoids. Always select a topical that has the highest total THC and CBD per ounce. For example, Canna-Fusion’s Ultimate Salve contains a total of 600mg of active cannabinoids per 1 OZ/30Grams of product! This makes them the most potent cannabis topicals in the state of Oregon.

While CBD infused topicals are readily available, topicals that contain THC are a little harder to find. Products containing as little as 1% THC are heavily regulated by state laws that keep them on lock down. In most states, THC topicals are solely available in dispensaries. And let’s face it, many people like Shannon have had some preconceived notions about dispensaries.

There are many people out there who could benefit greatly from full spectrum topicals, however they do not really want to step foot into a dispensary. After all, what would Timmy’s mom from the soccer team say if she saw Shannon entering the neighborhood pot shop? The same goes for senior citizens. Topical cannabis for pain is rapidly becoming the preferred method of Cannabis consumption for the elderly. Many older folks are simply not comfortable with the idea of going into a dispensary though. While it may be some time before laws surrounding THC change, it is up to people like Cheryl Marquart, a healthcare provider and cannabis advocate in Southern Oregon. to help make a change in the minds of individuals whom are in need of full spectrum cannabis topicals for pain.

cannabis for senior citizens

Cheryl has made it her mission to get cannabis into the hand of the people who will benefit from it most. She frequently leads dispensary tours for members of a local retirement community in her home state of Oregon. She takes seniors to multiple dispensaries to learn about the various products available theses days and how these products, including topicals, can assist with a wide variety of health conditions.

Tours like these are helping to bridge the gap that exists between the patient and the product. Dispensary tours are helping people begin to feel more safe and comfortable with idea of visiting a dispensary for all of their wellness needs.


It is time that THC stops getting such a bad rap. This cannabinoid carries with it an integral piece of the puzzle when it comes to natural wellness through the use of cannabis.


CBD products may be widely available at variety of locations, including many health food stores. For the highest grade cannabis topicals you will need to visit a dispensary though. And yes, they are going to contain THC. No, they won’t get you high. They won’t show up on a drug test either. However they will help you to live a life that is more pain free and functional. Shannon decided the benefits outweighed any potential stigma or label and she went for it. She picked up some Canna-Fusion topicals at her local Oregon dispensary and has been beyond grateful for the relief she has received. She even shared some with Timmy’s mom at soccer practice the other day 😉

Cannabis Salve Fall Skin Care Tips

It’s a time of transition. Fall is among us and Summer has begun to fade. However, the damaging effects that all that summer sun, saltwater, and chlorine have taken on your skin may still be present. Furthermore, the dry, chapped skin that is typical in winter months lies just ahead. Here are some fall skin care tips that utilize natural cannabis salve to balance out all your seasonal skin care needs.

Cannabis Salve Fall Skin Care

Cannabis Salve assists with the healing of a variety of skin ailments. From acne and psoriasis, to sunburns and wrinkles, the healing powers of cannabis salve have proven to be a miracle for many suffering from mild to severe skin conditions. But even those individuals with seemingly perfect skin at times fall victim to seasonally induced dry skin. This article explores how cannabis provides the superior hydration that your skin craves this time of year.

Cannabis & EFA’s

First, let’s talk essential fatty acids (EFAs). EFAs are extremely critical to all types of body functions. Deficiency in EFAs can lead to a plethora of health problems. While it is true that our bodies produce many of the different fats that they need, the most crucial EFAs (Omega-3 & Omega-6) are only introduced externally through foods and topical sources.

Cannabis Salve & EFAs

The best food sources include fish oil, seeds and nuts, as recommended by the American Heart Association. These foods are all extremely high in Omega-3 and Omega-6. Topical products such as Cannabis salve provide another important external source of these valuable EFAs. Oil extracted from Cannabis plants is one of the richest sources of Omega-3 & Omega-6 EFAs on the planet. Additionally,  high levels of proteins in Cannabis salve can help to repair a dehydrated or damaged lipid layer. With its ideal combination of proteins and EFAs, there is no doubt that topical Cannabis salve leads to softer, more supple skin.

CANNA-FUSION Ultimate Salve

Ultimate Salve

This cannabis salve is a favorite for many. What makes it different than other topicals?  Hint:  It isn’t the beautiful aroma and silky feel of a quality salve.  What makes it different is the intention of healing that goes into the salve making process from seed to final product. The result is topicals that really do help relieve pain/inflammation.

The Ultimate Salve is approximately 50% THC and 50% CBD and customers say that it is a great pain reliever for deep, chronic and acute pain. It contains essential oils like lavender, peppermint, arnica, and rosemary that help to relieve pain and inflammation. It is also a perfect go-to salve for treating dry skin, as well as burns, bruises, sprains, inflammation and most soft tissue injuries.

Additionally, this salve contains Emu Oil which is known to promote natural healing of skin tissue. It has high levels of anti-oxidants, collagen and natural anti-inflammatory properties making it effective in relieving many skin problems. Emu oil is also known for its outstanding ability to penetrate through skin and deliver bio-nutrients into cellular tissue.

Canna-Fusion Cannabis Salves & Oils

Canna-Fusion Natural Healing Products are all organic. This is much healthier for your body.  The plant extracts cross the skin barrier instinctively when ingredients are all organic. The skin is the largest organ in our body so putting toxic substances on it really should never be an option anyway. Canna-Fusion handcrafted topical salves are extremely effective in providing rapid, lasting pain relief for dry skin and other skin conditions without a high or dangerous side effects. Cannabis salve is truly nature’s perfect solutions to all your skin woes.

 

Cannabis Salve Fall Skin Care

More Fall Skin Care Tips:

Switch to a soap-free hydrating cleanser as to avoid over-drying.

Use oil based scrubs that hydrate while exfoliating.

Apply Canna-Fusion Ultimate  Salve after showering. Oil-based salves create a protective layer on the skin that retains more moisture than a cream or lotion.

Continue to consume plenty of foods and /or supplements rich in EFA’s.  Hydrate and exercise daily to keep your body and mind functioning optimally.  Smile more and frown less.  Hug your child, significant other, and dog.  Thank God for every breath you take and for the endless blessings everyday.

Why High CBD?

high cbd cannabis salve Varying CBD:THC ratios can have a huge effect on how cannabis interacts with the human body. Theres no doubt that CBD and THC operate synergistically but why is it that High CBD Cannabis is stealing the spotlight?

 

High CBD products are definitely all the rage. But when examining the clinical applications of THC and CBD studies have shown that there is a clear rationale for combining the two. As one would imagine, CBD seemingly works best when combined with THC as well as all other cannabinoids found within the cannabis plant in its natural state. CBD is getting a great deal of attention though due simply to the fact that it is more likely to stimulate the particular cannabinoid receptors associated specifically with pain.

According to an article in Current Medicinal Chemistry, it is the CB2 receptors that “modulate acute pain, chronic inflammatory pain, post-surgical pain, cancer pain and pain associated with nerve injury.” CBD is like a key that unlocks these CB2 receptors allowing patients to experience great amounts of pain relief.

High CBD Cannabis

In addition, not only is CBD a more effective pain reliever, it is also more permeable to the skin than THC making high CBD oils a better choice for topical cannabis products such as Canna-Fusion. The Journal of Pain Resolution states that CBD absorbs into the skin 10 times more efficiently than THC thus leading to faster acting and longer lasting relief. Topical Cannabis products containing high CBD oil are best for treating localized physical pain. Canna-Fusion CBD Synergy Salve is a high CBD, low THC cannabis salve that is great for moderate or chronic pain relief such as arthritis. It is also great for minor first aid treatments such as burns, bruises, sprains, inflammation and most soft tissue injuries.

High CBD Low THC Cannabis Salve

High CBD Cannabis salves widen the range of conditions that can be treated with cannabis. It seems that CBD alone is so effective that many topical Cannabis products utilized CBD oil derived from hemp which contains no THC whatsoever. However, the topical use of CBD combined with low levels of THC is seen by many as being even more effective. A Tale of Two Cannabinoids by Ethan Russo & Geoffrey W. Guy, supports “a distinct view that CBD and perhaps other cannabis components achieve synergy with THC consisting of potentiation of benefits, antagonism of adverse effects, summation (a` la the entourage effect), pharmaco- kinetic advantages.”

CBD Synergy Salve

Canna-Fusion’s CBD Synergy Cannabis Salve combines the perfect high CBD, low THC ratio along with a proprietary blend of organic essential oils each with their own therapeutic benefits. Additionally, this High CBD Cannabis salve contains emu oil which has outstanding ability to penetrate skin and deliver bio-nutrients into cellular tissue. Thus, emu oil further heightens the transdermal effects of the CBD. Canna-Fusion is formulated with synergy in mind and it is  truly the perfect go to cannabis salve.
