• Beta-Caryophyllene — This is one of the most effective terpenes if you suffer with chronic pain. It is also a delicious hemp flower with a peppery, spicy aroma.
• Beta-Myrcene – This may be the most commonly found terpene, but it is also a powerful agent for relieving pain.

Every hemp flower strain has a different terpene profile as well as a different cannabinoid profile. You can find out from the COA the terpenes that are present. You can also get these terpenes in a form that you can infuse into the hemp flower nug to make it even more powerful against pain.
