CBD for Back Pain

If you’ve got back pain, chances are you’ve tried just about everything for a little relief. But there are new products on the scene that are being used by millions of Americans to deal with muscle soreness and discomfort.

A quick overview

Cannabidiol, or CBD for short, is a phyto-cannabinoid found in cannabis plants. However, it does not cause the same psychoactive effects as other naturally occurring cannabinoids (such as tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC).

Is it legal?

Legality is an issue for some; all 50 states have laws governing the sale, possession, and use of CBD, and they vary significantly. When it comes to products on shopCBD.com, every single product on site is within the legal threshold of 0.3% THC. So no need to worries, If you wanted to be 100% sure that what you’re buying is legal, with zero effort, you’re in the right place. We did our homework so that you don’t have to.

How much should I take?

The rule of thumb is: Start low, go slow. Start with a small serving of 5-10mg, then gradually work your way up (between 10-50mg/day), if needed.

We suggest observing the effects over the course of several days or a few weeks and then making necessary adjustments—upping or lowering the amount, trying a different concentration—until the desired effect sets in. Some of our customers keep a daily journal to track how they feel over time.

Creams or Oils?

Where should I start? This is all about personal preference, but some types of products are better suited for certain uses. Topical products are best suited for muscle soreness, because you can apply them to the exact part of your body that needs it.

For localized relief, we’ve compiled a selection of topicals that not only contain CBD but also include other powerful anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving ingredients like arnica and menthol to help ease targeted aches and pains.

You’ll also find a carefully curated selection of oils and tinctures that include ingredients such as turmeric, ginger, black pepper and rosemary that all help to deal with pain.

Can I trust the quality of the products?

Every product sold on our site has been lab tested for impurities and active ingredients. Our lab checks for residual pesticides, microbial impurities, mycotoxins, heavy metals and even residual solvents to ensure that you get the best possible experience out of your product.

We also make sure that our products always contain as much CBD as they say they do. We wouldn’t sell them to you otherwise.
