Understanding Elbow Tendonitis: Why Standard Creams Fail

Your elbow doesn't hurt because of inflammation. It hurts because all of those connective tissues have mechanically broken down and are no longer able to help you perform at your highest level. Whether you swing a tennis racket, curl a barbell, or swing a hammer, you need your forearm muscles to pull your elbow flexors into a hard contraction. To anchor your muscles into your bone, you have a small bundle of tendons on each side of your forearm. Push too much tension through those tendons, and they will begin to experience degenerative micro tears. From here, your condition continues to break down as those small tears turn into chronic tearing. In order to recover these areas fast enough to keep up with your high-level of performance, you need to go bigger and stronger than your normal drugstore lotion. You need something that is high potency enough to penetrate through the skin and target your trauma. When it comes to tendonitis, you want to treat the joint that is localized. Sure, you can take a CBD pill and wait for it to enter your digestive tract and distribute through your entire body via the bloodstream, but what good does that do for your elbow? A topical isolate allows you to apply the most active compounds directly where the tendon meets the bone. The high amounts of CBD found in this roll-on will stay strong at your epicondyle and saturate your elbow joint without losing any potency.

Lateral Epicondylitis vs. Medial

The most important thing to know about elbow tendonitis is where it is failing you. If you experience sharp pains that spread throughout the outside of the joint, you have what is called lateral epicondylitis. Commonly referred to as tennis elbow, this condition is created by overworking your forearm extensors, usually due to lifting or backhand swinging motions. If the pain is on the inside of your elbow joint, then it is called medial epicondylitis. Medial epicondylitis occurs due to wrist flexion and gripping. As you can see, the conditions occur on opposite ends of your joint. The same inflammatory process takes place, and the same loss of grip strength occurs. You need a clinically proven solution for both.

Connective Tissue Threshold Barrier

When it comes to receiving topicals topically, the elbow joint is unlike your thighs or glutes. There is very little subcutaneous fatty tissue to act as a reservoir to slowly saturate the targeted area. When applying to the elbow joint, you're placing the product directly on bone, fascia, and thick tendons. Typical 500mg CBD topicals lack the molecular volume to breach this connective tissue wall. Most aren't even potent enough to reach receptors deep inside the tendon sheath. See how a specialized CBD roll-on for elbow pain overcomes this issue by design:

• Increased Potency Allows Deep Tissue Saturation: 3,000mg offers the "osmotic pressure" necessary to push cannabinoids past the skin into the joint.
• Mechanical Force of the Roll-On Head Functions as Mini-Massager: Helping to loosen up stubborn scar tissue buildup while promoting localized blood flow to better absorb menthol/arnica-infused formula.

Only by merging clinically effective CBD with the roll-on form factor can you truly treat the pain, not just cover it up. Think precision, not patches.

Why Potency Matters: The 3,000mg Clinical Edge

Covering up pain is a losing strategy. Most topicals found at your local retailer cover up pain with lidocaine or super minty menthol. They give you the illusion of relief, so you jump back into whatever activity is causing your pain. You use your joint again with more aggression and end up tearing more microscopic tissue. Premium CBD doesn't numb you out because it's there to help you manage your recovery. Premium CBD targets CB2 receptors located in the peripheral nervous system of your skin to help regulate the body's localized inflammation response. This allows your tissue to heal without you masking the pain.

CBD potency dictates results. When you select a CBD roll-on for elbow pain, you are selecting how potent of an isolate you are applying. Apply too little and those molecules will not penetrate through to the thick tendons surrounding your elbow. They become stagnant in the top layers of skin. A 3,000mg roll-on ensures you are applying enough molecular surface area to reach deep into the tissue.

Maximum Saturation Delivers Tendon Relief

Topical recovery is all about dose response. Applying a 500mg or 1,000mg product won't deliver enough CBD past the skin barrier to register an effect. Elbows are large tendons that sit deep in your body with little blood supply. In order to saturate the tissue, you need massive amounts of the active compounds. Studies into CBD for pain and inflammation find that results are directly linked to how much of the compound can accumulate at the site of injury. By applying a 3,000mg CBD roll-on, you're able to create enough "osmotic pressure" to push the isolate through fascia and into the joint capsule. Trust us, there's a difference between superficial cooling and hitting the tender spot.

The Triple-Action Formula: CBD, Menthol, and Arnica

Two ingredients work better together than alone. Menthol is nature's "gatekeeper" for pain. It triggers a cooling sensation that immediately distracts your nervous system while causing blood vessels to dilate. This floods your targeted area with blood flow to act as a transport method so the CBD can work faster and deeper. We've added Arnica Montana to combat soft tissue damage and bruising associated with repetitive stress injuries. Using all three ingredients together allows the body to absorb faster than CBD alone. By adding a professional-grade recovery tool to your daily regimen, you are one step ahead of the injury cycle instead of always reacting to it. The triple action instantly cools you down, while the high-potency CBD does its job on the long-term inflammatory response.

NSF Certified for Sport™: The Safety Certification Athletes Trust

When you have a career to lose, you don't take risks. So while efficacy is important when treating lateral epicondylitis or medial epicondylitis, athletes also need to know a product is compliant first. Sure, the average CBD roll-on claiming to relieve elbow pain may say "lab tested" on the label. But that's just the industry standard these days. Not NSF Certified for Sport™. While many CBD companies use that phrase to barely meet federal requirements, NSF® is auditing everything. Each batch of every NSF Certified for Sport product is tested for more than 280 different drugs that are on the major leagues' no-no lists.

CBD may have anti-inflammatory properties that work with your body's endocannabinoid system to decrease swelling. But when you're going head-to-head with the competition, you can't risk "hot" products. Full spectrum contains plant materials that include THC, even if it's in minute quantities. Going pure with a THC <100PPM isolate means you get the benefits of targeted CBD anti-inflammatories, with no chance of psychoactive THC. Ask yourself, "Will this product get me popped on a drug test?" If the answer is yes, don't use it. If it's an NSF Certified for Sport CBD isolate, the answer is definitely no.

CBD Passed by WADA. Professional Regulation Standards

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has deemed CBD safe, but THC is heavily regulated. WADA hasn't changed their in-competition urine THC cutoff of 150ng/mL. For NFL, MLB, MMA... even with topical/non-ingestable products getting flagged for less than 0.5% THC due to mislabeling on non-certified topicals, it can result in a violation. That is why NSF certification is best. It holds brands to batch-specific transparency. Meaning the professional athlete can look up what is literally in their recovery device before it even touches their skin through third-party testing.

Fake CBD Is Too Prevalent to Take That Risk

CBD products have been proven to have a transparency issue. In one study, only 30.95% of CBD products tested were found to be accurately labeled. Additionally, many of these products had been showing higher levels of THC than advertised. We take that guessing game out of the equation entirely with a 0.0% THC career-long THC profile. But we don't take that leap just for the sake of it. We're optimizing for peak performance, which means we adhere to the "Clean Sport" standard of ZERO tolerance for THC. That means complete and total manufacturing control AND 3rd party verification we can prove on every batch we produce. If it's not NSF certified, you're not using professional-grade equipment. You have to believe in your tools of recovery as much as you do your training program.

How to Apply CBD Roll-On for Maximum Elbow Recovery

Application should be methodical. If you want your CBD roll-on to work for elbow pain, you have to view the application process as part of your training regimen. Application doesn't mean "rubbing it in." Application means using the head of the roll-on as a massage tool to break through the skin and get the 3,000mg formula to your elbow's epicondyle.

Use cross-friction to loosen up adhesions. Once you have the formula on your elbow, use the roller ball itself to press perpendicular to your tendon. The pressure will increase circulation to the affected area, allowing better permeability of the isolate. The sooner you stick with this application process, the better your results will be for chronic situations. If you're in need of relief from an acute situation, frequency is key:

• Acute: 3x–4x per day
• Chronic: Morning and night (pre-workout & post-workout)

When you apply matters as well. If you're going to apply before working out, make sure to give your body 15 minutes for the tingling of menthol and arnica to work on the joint. For maximum absorption, apply after showering when your pores are open and receptive.

Precision Applicator

Locate the trigger point you'd like to target prior to use. For lateral elbow tendinitis, also known as tennis elbow, target the outside of your elbow, also known as the lateral epicondyle. If you have medial elbow tendinitis or golfer's elbow, roll on the inside of your elbow, also known as the medial epicondyle. The roll-on applicator was designed for easy sanitary use. Apply CBD directly to the joint you'd like to target without contaminating your hands. This way you'll always have a clean grip on your racket and gym equipment. For best results, combine your application with eccentric loading. As you strengthen the tendon, CBD works to regulate the inflammatory response, creating a recovery loop.

Pre-Workout vs. Post-Workout Strategy

Apply before working out to experience a performance-enhancing effect. The cooling sensation of menthol causes your blood vessels to expand, allowing the tendons to heat up. Decrease tightness and mitigate that initial "tightness" you feel during your first couple sets of lifts or swings. Follow up with the application after your workout to calm the CBD's analgesic effects, which will target the body's immediate inflammatory response to exercise. It's a two-step process we recommend for recovery in our article How to Use CBD Roll-On for Back Pain. Keep your edge by popping the 3,000MG CBD Roll-On For Muscle & Joints in your daily gym bag.
