March 08 2022 - 9:00AM
Green Roads, a leading CBD wellness brand and subsidiary of The
Valens Company, announced today they are an official Supporting
Sponsor of the Arthritis Foundation after giving a $120,000
donation to support the organization’s pain management initiative
to advance improved quality of life for those living with chronic
pain. Arthritis is America’s leading cause of disability, and
physical pain is one of the most pervasive conditions caused by
this disease. To further serve this community and provide relief to
those currently battling arthritis pain, Green Roads is launching
an Arthritis Pain Relief Roll-On nationwide.
“We are excited to have Green Roads join us in our
mission to improve quality of life for the nearly 60 million
Americans who have been diagnosed with a form of arthritis,” said
Katie Bobin, the Arthritis Foundation’s Vice President of
Development and Community Giving. “We know arthritis relief is
personal for Green Roads. Their support will help fuel the fight to
conquer arthritis through the scientific advancements, advocacy,
patient education and community of support and connections the
Arthritis Foundation is known for leading.”
As part of the supporting sponsorship, Green Roads has committed
to the Arthritis Foundation’s pain initiative to aid in reducing
life’s painful moments. Green Roads’ support of this initiative
will help the Foundation establish new tools and resources for pain
interferences while expanding a community of support.
“As a company, Green Roads is 100% focused on helping people
feel better today than they did yesterday,” said Tyler Robson,
CEO of The Valens Company, Green Roads’ parent company. “Supporting
the Arthritis Foundation’s long-term work and creating products
that can provide benefits to millions of arthritis patients align
perfectly with our mission and our purpose.”
The Arthritis Pain Relief Roll-On is an
over-the-counter (OTC) product specifically formulated by Green
Roads’ in-house team of pharmacists to provide relief for arthritis
pain. The roll-on includes ingredients known to relieve arthritic
pain such as menthol and camphor, plus 1,500 milligrams of
hemp-derived CBD and other supportive botanicals including black
cohosh root, chickweed herb, comfrey leaf, devil’s claw root,
evening primrose flower, and horsetail grass extracts.
Green Roads’ employee Steve Michaels, who has severe rheumatoid
arthritis, helped develop the product. “I joined Green Roads
in 2018 because of the impact this brand had already had on my
life,” said Michaels. “It’s an incredible moment for me to be able
to help my arthritis community with this new roll-on.”
The new products are now available for purchase on
GreenRoads.com and in select retail locations across the
country.
