Organic Care of California BLOG

 Here is a few Blogs written by the owners Chaz & Shantel Cornellier about the industry and things they have experienced or learned while owning a cannabis delivery service in Chico, Ca in 2017 under Prop 215 and then moving to Sacramento to own a State Liscensed Delivery, C9-0000003-LIC, immediately in 2018. It has been a crazy ride and Chaz loves to explain what the market is doing and how he sees the company doing in the near future.

Cannabis and Eczema: A Soothing Solution from Organic Care of California

As the owner of Organic Care of California, a dispensary dedicated to holistic wellness, I've witnessed firsthand the remarkable benefits of cannabis, particularly in managing skin conditions like eczema. In this blog, I'll explore how cannabis can be a game-changer for eczema sufferers and share insights on creating your own cannabis-based topical solutions.

Understanding Eczema and Cannabis

Eczema, a chronic skin condition, is characterized by dry, itchy, and inflamed skin. While the exact causes of eczema are still being unraveled, it's clear that inflammation plays a pivotal role. This is where cannabis comes into the picture.

Cannabis contains cannabinoids like CBD and THC, known for their anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. These compounds can help soothe the skin, reduce itching, and manage inflammation, making them ideal for eczema treatment.

Crafting Cannabis Topicals for Eczema

Creating your own cannabis-infused topicals can be a fulfilling endeavor. Here's a simple guide to get you started:

Ingredients:

  • Cannabis flower (preferably high in CBD)
  • Carrier oil (like coconut or olive oil)
  • Beeswax (for texture)
  • Essential oils (optional, for fragrance)

Steps:

  1. Decarboxylation: Begin by decarboxylating your cannabis. This process activates the cannabinoids. Bake the ground flower at 245°F for 30-40 minutes.
  2. Infusion: Infuse the carrier oil with cannabis. Combine the decarboxylated cannabis and oil in a double boiler. Simmer for 2-3 hours, ensuring the temperature doesn't exceed 200°F.
  3. Straining: Strain the mixture using cheesecloth to remove plant material.
  4. Final Touches: Add beeswax to the strained oil and heat until melted. You can also add a few drops of essential oils for fragrance.
  5. Cooling: Pour the mixture into containers and let it cool.
