That I ran across was about little old ladies in Mexico, soaking bud in tequila and using it as a rub for arthritic hands. Apparently alcohol is an adequate carrier.

Have you thought about hemp oil- prohibitively expensive? Perhaps as a secondary oil?

I would think lanolin would be OK, except with the extreme vegans. It is derived from the wool and doesn't hurt the sheep to get it (humiliates them, maybe,-but sheep aren't too smart, they forget soon )

Personally, I like the smell of wintergreen and its pain-killing properties are a plus. Aloe is good.

Here's a study with an additional product idea-

Other places to find bees wax are sewing stores (sold in tiny cakes), local apiaries - look for local honey at the HF store and farmer's markets and get the #/web site from the jar, and craft stores in the candle section. I'd go for the apiary- you're going to need a steady source.

GO FOR IT, GIRL!

Storm Crow Reviewed by Storm Crow on . Cannabis-based salve experiments Hola! Okay... This thread got me thinking: http://boards.cannabis.com/medicinal-cannabis-health/159086-your-skin-produces-marijuana-like-substance.html I'm aware that people have been making cannabis creams and lotions here and there, but we've seen sadly little of it around these parts! So I wanted to get some discussion going over here in 'methods'. The two major applications I am interested in are: -Arthritis pain (joint inflammation) -Psoriasis and other inflammations of the skin Rating: 5
