Why Made-to-Order Matters: How Fresh Craftsmanship Protects the Power of Prehemptive CBD Cream

Today’s wellness market is filled with mass-produced CBD creams that sit on shelves for months, sometimes years, before reaching customers.
Prehemptive does the opposite.
Born from a 1933 French apothecary tradition, every jar of Prehemptive CBD Arnica Sports Cream is made-to-order, crafted in small batches, and formulated with 100% active botanicals. This preserves ingredient potency, maximizes therapeutic benefits, and keeps our products clean, fresh, and effective, precisely the way my grandfather designed them almost a century ago.
What “Made-to-Order” Really Means in Herbal Apothecary Tradition
Long before industrial production, apothecaries prepared healing formulas the way chefs prepare meals: fresh, intentional, and using the highest-quality raw materials.
My grandfather, a rural physician in the South of France, owned a two-hectare medicinal garden where Arnica, Rosemary, Thyme, Lavender, and Calendula grew abundantly. My siblings and I spent every summer with him:
Harvesting medicinal plants
Drying and storing herbs
Learning extraction techniques
Crafting ointments by hand
This is the heart of Prehemptive’s philosophy: freshness equals potency.
Why Freshness Directly Impacts Therapeutic Power

Herbal medicine depends on active compounds that degrade over time. Science now confirms what apothecaries understood generations ago:
Arnica’s sesquiterpene lactones weaken with heat and oxidation.
Calendula’s flavonoids and triterpenoids lose strength when exposed to preservatives.
CBD’s antioxidant profile decreases with prolonged storage and chemical additives.
Fresh inputs = stronger therapeutic results.

How Prehemptive Preserves a 1933 Apothecary Legacy in Every Jar
When we received my grandfather’s handwritten notebooks in 2015, we inherited his formulas, ratios, extraction notes, and philosophy. Prehemptive honors this heritage with a modern twist.
1. Crafted Only When You Order
No warehouses. No months of storage.
Each jar is prepared fresh, ensuring zero oxidation, maximum plant potency, and no preservatives required.
2. Small-Batch Blending for Purity
We mix and emulsify in micro-batches to maintain perfect consistency and quality.
No industrial machinery.
No harsh processing.
3. 100% Active Ingredients — No Fillers
The formula is simple, clean, and powerful:
Raw Hemp Cannabinoids (CBD) Extract
Arnica
Calendula
Ginger
Lavender
Organic Shea Butter
No parabens.
No preservatives.
No petroleum.
No artificial stabilizers.
4. A Century of Herbal Wisdom + Modern Phyto-Extraction
I modernized my grandfather’s arthritis and anti-inflammatory formula by adding hemp CBD phyto-extracts, amplifying relief for:
chronic pain
muscle soreness
inflammation
joint stiffness
post-workout recovery
This creates a dual-era formula: 1933 herbal medicine → updated for 2025 CBD science.
What Makes Prehemptive CBD Sports Cream More Effective?
Organic Shea Butter Delivery System
Solid at room temperature, melts at 105°F.
This ensures:
deep absorption
fast penetration
optimized delivery of active botanicals
Multi-Botanical Synergy
CBD + Arnica + Calendula + Ginger + Lavender brings:
anti-inflammatory action
improved circulation
muscle relaxation
skin repair benefits
“Less, More Often” Application Philosophy
A thin layer applied twice is more effective than one thick application.
This method is inherited from traditional apothecary protocols.
Suggested Use
Apply a thin coating to the affected area and massage until absorbed.
For acute or chronic pain, apply a second layer immediately.
The cream feels slightly oily at first, then absorbs fully, leaving skin smooth.
Shelf Life
Store in a cool, dark place.
If melted, refrigerate briefly; it will re-solidify normally.
Shelf life: 12 months when stored properly.
