Finding Relief for Pain and Inflammation
Roughly one third of US adults suffer with pain on a daily basis. We all know the feeling of pain but it is difficult to find effective, safe, long term remedies for the aches, tension, inflammation, and unpleasant phenomenon of pain. We have witnessed the tragedy of wide-spread opioid prescriptions and the significant risks of over-using over the counter solutions like Tylenol and Ibuprofen. Recent studies have found that the signaling of the Endocannabinoid System through both CB1 and CB2 receptors has a role in pain sensation, pain perception, pain processing, and the resolution of pain states and CBD is emerging as a powerful anti-oxidant with anti-inflammatory benefits.
Explore the resources, current research & articles below for information on how a well-toned ECS supported with clean, USDA organic hemp CBD provides a new avenue & holistic option to aid in the relief of those occasional injuries, aches and pains, as well as longer term pain and inflammatory states.
Finally, so often the experience of pain is accompanied with trouble sleeping, anxiousness, overwhelm, low mood, and/or hopelessness. Please see our other pages on Sleep and Mental Health for further details on how supporting your Endocannabinoid System with a daily wellness regimen of CBD can provide benefits across multiple dimensions of health.

What Customers Are Saying
“I was diagnosed in 2013 with arthritis in many of my joints. I tried medications, supplements, and two different kinds of CBD to help with my inflammation & pain so I honestly wasn’t too optimistic when I heard about Green Compass because I wasn’t getting relief from anything I tried. After a couple of weeks of taking the full spectrum tincture and using the Reduce cream, it’s a game-changer! I have less pain and more mobility. My wife started using it for her high blood pressure and it has been so much better since she’s started. We are very thankful for Green Compass!” — Richard, CA
“As a professional musician and piano teacher, my hands are my livelihood. When joint pain began creeping in 6 years ago, I was anxious about how much the excruciating pain was intensifying. After about 4 weeks of CBD from Green Compass, my pain level is at ZERO.” — Lana, UT
“As a former swimmer and water polo player, I have constant lingering joint pain, especially in my shoulders. Reduce has been a huge help not only in eliminating the pain, but in reducing inflammation so I can complete my physical therapy exercises. I keep bottles of Reduce by my desk and bed so relief is never more than an arm’s reach away. Plus, I find the smell comforting.” — Lindsay, CA
