I have to be honest. Before I did some research, I had no idea what emu oil was. My first image was of emus being pressed by the dozen in some sort of olive press mechanism. It was both comical and gruesome and still makes me laugh in a painfully awkward way. Thankfully, this is nothing like the truth of the process. Emu, which are domesticated widely for their meat, have a layer of fatty tissue similar to our “spare-tire” fat across their back. In the tradition of whole use livestock, this tissue is harvested and the oil extracted. This oil seems to have beneficial properties for both our skin and hair and plays a significant role in Cannariginals patent pending delivery system in their Emu 420 Essentials topicals.
The gold series of products from Emu 420 Essentials comes in a medicated oil and a mentholated and non-mentholated rub. Containing 50 mg of CBD each and an extra helping of emu oil, the gold series is more potent and faster acting than their standard products, making it their premier topical line. The products come packaged in thick glass jars with gold accenting and labeling. The fine attention to design and quality means Emu 420 Essentials fits in even the most discerning of bathrooms.
Still a dark horse in the ever expanding world of cannabis, topicals are perfect for physical maladies: including bruises, chronic joint pain, soreness in the back, muscle fatigue or strain, psoriasis, and swelling. I even gained relief from my shin splints, which have been an issue since my days playing lacrosse on the turf stadium in college and flares up whenever I walk or run on hard surfaces. For years my only course of action was several handfuls of pain pills, ice, and rest. Now I rub the oil into my legs before an activity and follow it up with a massage with the mentholated rub afterwards.
Long a believer in the efficacy of topicals, I now add my voice to the list of testimonials on the Cannariginals website. While there may be room for discussion on whether smoking a blunt is “medicinal” or not, there is no question that patients in chronic, inescapable pain who turn to cannabis topicals do so for relief and nothing more. For people tired of an endless succession of pills, Emu 420 Essentials is a solution that works.
