Cannabis Pain Patches

Papa and Barkley Makes Pain Relief Patches with Varying Ratios of CBD & THC

— October 12, 2017 — Lifestyle
Papa & Barkley's makes a pain patch that offers a mess-free alternative to topical lotions, oils and creams. The 'Releaf Patch' delivers transdermal cannabis to the body to provide up to 12 hours of continual relief.

The Releaf Patch is offered with different ratios of CBD and THC, including 3:1, 1:1 and 1:3 based on one's pain relief preferences. This is what the brand calls its 'Right Ratio' concept, which means that "each product needs a specific profile of cannabinoids and terpenes that work in concert."

Some of the natural ingredients that can be found in products from Papa & Barkley include beeswax, Vitamin E, as well as analgesic eucalyptus, antibacterial and antiviral tea tree, soothing lavender and stimulating peppermint.
Trend Themes
1. Transdermal Cannabis Delivery - Transdermal patches that can deliver cannabis offer a non-invasive and long-lasting pain relief option.
2. Customizable CBD/THC Ratios - Customizable ratios of CBD and THC based on individual preferences offer a personalized pain relief solution for consumers.
3. Holistic Pain Management - Incorporating natural ingredients like beeswax, Vitamin E, eucalyptus, tea tree, lavender and peppermint offer a holistic approach to pain management.
Industry Implications
1. Health and Wellness - Cannabis-based pain relief patches offer a new segment to the growing health and wellness industry and its consumers.
2. Pharmaceuticals - The customizable nature of the right ratio concept offers a potential opportunity for pharmaceutical companies to offer personalized pain management solutions.
3. Alternative Medicine - The infusion of natural ingredients in pain relief patches offer a potential opportunity for alternative medicine companies to offer holistic pain management solutions.
