A busy day juggling work, fitness, errands, and family can be fulfilling—but it can also leave our bodies exhausted (and desperately seeking a massage). Essential oils, meditation, and hot showers all have their role to play, but when it comes to daily recovery—having a go-to THC topical in your arsenal is a great way to add extra calm and relaxation to your routine.

Now more than ever, minor cannabinoids and marijuana have a voice in the way we understand and cultivate well-being—and THC topical gels are a part of that. But if you've ever shopped for one, you know there's no shortage of choices…. It's hard to know which product best aligns with your well-being, but Curaleaf's Plant Precision Relieve Topical Gel is one-of-a-kind…. And we'll prove it to you!

But what is a THC topical gel?

Topicals are all about localized action—meaning, they're used on a specific area of the body for intended results. THC topicals are meant to help relieve aches, pains, and the like. The Plant Precision Relieve Topical Gel is designed to rapidly deliver comfort where you need it most. (And with a soothing lemongrass scent!)

So, what happens once the active ingredient, THC, interacts with the skin and eventually hits the bloodstream? According to the research1, cannabinoids like THC interact with cannabinoid receptors as part of the extensive endocannabinoid system in our body. This helps regulate the signaling pathways throughout our body—including those responsible for balancing pain and inflammation. Individuals and some academic studies have reported that THC has helped users mitigate joint discomfort.

The benefits of a topical gel

To better understand the reasons for adopting a THC topical in our wellness routine, we connected with Jessie Kater, senior vice president of innovation, research, and development at Curaleaf. "Topicals can be a good alternative route of administration for some people that may be less inclined to inhale or ingest cannabis. The Plant Precision Relieve Topical Gel is a great choice for those looking for some localized relief, and as some of it gets absorbed into the bloodstream, it can also help provide systemic relief and relaxation, making it a great multifunctional option."

Another benefit of Plant Precision Relieve Topical Gel is that it's lightweight on your skin, whereas many THC topicals out there feel heavy. THC is a highly lipophilic compound, meaning it has an affinity for lipid environments and dissolves more easily in fat than it does water. Because of this, many gels have a hard time permeating beyond the watery layers of our skin. But according to Kater, the Plant Precision Relieve Topical Gel includes food-grade ethanol and permeation enhancers. In-house proprietary research indicates that these enhancers assist in carrying cannabinoids across the layers of skin into deeper tissue and blood vessels where it is then circulated systemically. This doesn't just imply a lighter gel, it also means you'll start to feel a calming "body high" tingle.
