Why use pain meds when you can use natural methods?
Natural remedies have been around for ages, such as Hot Tottie, Vicks Vapor Rub, etc.
In my experience with pharmaceutical medicines, I have had a bad reaction to most. Instead of helping it caused nausea, made me sleepy, and if for pain, the pain did not get better just made me dopey. So I have been using natural products made by God. If you look at the root of most medical problems the culprit is inflammation. You can ease the inflammation, most problems become tolerable or even go away altogether. A beautiful thing about medicinal cannabis, it’s a strong anti-inflammatory and can be very helpful with disease and illness. It also helps with appetite and insomnia that usually comes with some of the medications required to manage severe illness.
*Always ask your doctor before adding or changing anything, when you are taking prescribed medications
The Bath Bomb (Cannabis Infused)

Your joints move much smoother and any tension and anxiety that might be felt is soothed from aromatherapy provided by essential oil combinations to relax, clarify, settle, energize and motivate depending on the essential oils used in each bath bomb.
