Many arthritis suffers report that the application of a topical application to arthritic joints, twice a day aids with pain relief and reduces inflamation
Cannabis Cream
Required
500ml olive oil
75 grams of beeswax
50 grams of cannabis trim leaves
1 Litre of water
Ideally the cream should be made in a slow cooker, alternatively a saucepan can be used, however, simmer only, DO NOT boil
Add the oil, trim and water together in your pan or slow cooker
Simmer for 4 hours, stirring every 30 minutes or so
After 4 hours, allow to cool
Pour contents of the pan/slow cooker through a sieve into a clean bowl or plastic container. press the cannabis trim with the back of a spoon to force out as much oil as possible from the trim, discard trim
Place the water and oil solution into the coldest part of the fridge, after 24 to 48 hours (if your fridge is at the correct temperature) the olive oil will solidify, this will allow you to seperate the water from the oil, discard water
Alternatively, the oil and water mix can be placed in the freezer
You should now be left with a slightly green olive oil in solid form
Place oil into a saucepan and gently heat (simmer only) DO NOT boil
Add the beeswax (small pieces of wax disolve quicker than one big piece), keep stirring until all the wax has disolved
Pour into suitable containers, wide necked jars or margerine tubs are best, and allow to cool
Application of the cream twice a day (morning and evening) seems to produce the most favourable results
A few drops of essential oil of lavender can be added with the beeswax if you wish for a less 'canna' aroma
Do not apply internally or to openings of skin!(CUTS)
