Looking for a way to soothe aches and pains or improve your athletic recovery? THC cream may be the product for you. From relaxing sore muscles to alleviating nagging pain, THC cream harnesses the power of cannabis in a convenient topical form. Whether you’re an athlete recovering from intense workouts or you’re seeking holistic relief from discomfort, THC cream offers a gateway to natural healing and relaxation without overwhelming intoxication. Discover how to incorporate THC cream into your regimen with High Street’s guide below.
What is THC Cream?
THC cream, also known as cannabis-infused topical cream, is a product that combines the benefits of THC with other ingredients such as oils, lotions, or balms. Unlike ingestible forms of THC, which affect the entire body, THC cream is absorbed locally and interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system to provide pain relief to the immediate area. This makes THC cream particularly effective for targeting specific pain points, unlike products that provide more generalized relief like cannabis flower or concentrates.
Why use THC cream?
THC cream excels at pain relief and athletic recovery, but so do other cannabis products. So why is it that many consumers specifically choose THC cream instead of something else? This product offers several unique benefits beyond its therapeutic potential, making it attractive for consumers with certain goals. Here is a breakdown of the reasons many consumers choose THC cream for their pain relief and athletic recovery.
- Localized relief: THC cream provides targeted relief to specific areas of the body where it is applied, making it effective for addressing localized pain, inflammation, and discomfort. The cannabinoids in the cream interact with cannabinoid receptors in the skin, offering localized therapeutic effects focused on just the area the cream is applied.
- Non-intoxicating: Unlike consuming THC products via smoking or ingestion, THC creams do not enter the bloodstream in significant amounts. As a result, they typically do not produce the intoxicating effects of a “high.” Consumers looking for effective pain relief but who do not want to feel high may prefer THC cream to ingested or inhaled products for this reason.
- Soothing: THC cream often contains additional soothing ingredients, such as essential oils or menthol, enhancing its therapeutic properties. These ingredients may contribute to a cooling or warming sensation upon application, providing extra comfort and relief to sore muscles, joints, or irritated skin.
- Convenience: THC creams offer a convenient application method for individuals seeking relief from localized symptoms. It can be easily applied directly to the affected area without the need for special tools or equipment, making it accessible for use at home or on the go.
- Versatility: In addition to pain relief, THC cream may also be used for skin care purposes. Some formulations include moisturizing agents and antioxidants that help hydrate and protect the skin.
How to use THC cream
Incorporating THC cream into your routine can enhance your wellness regime in more ways than one! After a strenuous workout, massaging THC creams onto sore muscles can provide localized relief. It’s also beneficial after a day spent under the sun, as some creams can help moisturize and soothe sun-exposed skin – helping to maintain health and hydration.
To make the most of THC cream, follow these steps for optimal application:
- Determine the right product: Select a THC cream based on your needs, such as muscle relief, skin hydration, or overall relaxation. Consider factors like potency, additional ingredients, and intended use (i.e., day or night).
- Determine the spot: Identify the area of your body requiring relief or skincare benefits. Ensure the skin is clean and dry before application.
- Apply generously: Apply a liberal amount of THC cream onto your fingertips. Begin by applying a small amount, then gradually increase as needed. Use gentle, circular motions to massage the cream into the skin until fully absorbed.
- Wash your hands: Always wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water after applying THC cream to remove any residue. This will help to prevent accidental exposure to sensitive areas.

Does THC cream have side effects?
Although most THC creams are formulated with gentle ingredients to avoid irritation, it’s crucial to be mindful of any potential side effects. Like any product, these formulations have the potential to induce reactions in certain individuals, such as redness, itching, or rash. For this reason, we recommend testing all topical products on a small, insensitive area of skin before applying more. This will help gauge your reaction and ensure a safe, comfortable experience.
