Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in Caldwell County, Kentucky: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis
What Is Rick Simpson Oil (RSO)?
Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) is a highly concentrated cannabis extract that gained widespread attention after Canadian cannabis advocate Rick Simpson claimed it helped him overcome skin cancer in 2003. While Simpson’s story is powerful—and inspired countless people to explore cannabis as medicine—it’s important to understand that RSO is not a proven cancer cure. Instead, it’s a full-spectrum cannabis extract that may offer therapeutic benefits for pain, inflammation, sleep, anxiety, and other conditions.
At OilWell Cannabis, we honor Rick Simpson’s legacy by evolving his original concept into a modern, lab-tested, multi-cannabinoid RSO formula—one that’s legal, safe, and accessible to residents of Caldwell County, Kentucky, and beyond.
The History of RSO: From Rick Simpson to Modern Formulations
Who Was Rick Simpson?
Rick Simpson was a Canadian power engineer who, after suffering a head injury in 1997, found that cannabis provided more relief than pharmaceuticals. When he developed basal cell carcinoma (a form of skin cancer) in 2003, he applied concentrated cannabis oil to the lesions and claimed they disappeared within days.
While no independent medical verification exists for Simpson’s cancer claims, his story sparked a global movement. He began distributing RSO for free to cancer patients and others suffering from chronic conditions, believing that cannabis should be accessible to everyone—not controlled by pharmaceutical companies or governments.
The Traditional RSO Protocol: What Simpson Recommended
Simpson’s original RSO protocol involved consuming 60 grams of high-THC oil over 90 days, starting with tiny doses (about half a grain of rice) and gradually increasing to 1 gram per day. He also recommended:
- Oral ingestion (sublingual or swallowed)
- Topical application (for skin cancers)
- Nighttime dosing (to minimize psychoactive effects)
However, traditional RSO had major limitations:
❌ No lab testing – Every batch was different.
❌ High THC content – Often 60-90% THC, leading to strong psychoactive effects.
❌ Solvent risks – Made with naphtha or isopropyl alcohol, which can leave harmful residues.
❌ No terpenes – Heat destroyed the aromatic compounds that enhance cannabis’s effects.
Why OilWell’s RSO Is Different
At OilWell Cannabis, we took Simpson’s vision and modernized it—keeping what worked while fixing what didn’t. Our RSO Sublingual Oil and RSO Vape Cartridge are:
✅ Lab-tested & standardized – Every batch has the same cannabinoid profile.
✅ Multi-cannabinoid – Contains CBD, CBG, Delta-8 THC, THCa, Delta-9 THC, CBN, and CBC for a broader therapeutic effect.
✅ Solvent-free – Made with organic MCT oil, not toxic solvents.
✅ Terpene-rich – Includes limonene, myrcene, caryophyllene, and more for enhanced benefits.
✅ Patient-controlled potency – THCa stays non-psychoactive until you heat it, giving you full control.
✅ Legal & accessible – Farm Bill-compliant, ships to Caldwell County, Kentucky, and beyond.
How RSO Works: The Science Behind the Oil
The Endocannabinoid System (ECS)
Your body has an endocannabinoid system (ECS), a network of receptors (CB1 and CB2) that regulate:
- Pain perception
- Inflammation
- Mood & anxiety
- Sleep
- Appetite
- Immune function
Cannabinoids like THC, CBD, and CBG interact with these receptors, helping restore balance when the body is under stress.
Why Multi-Cannabinoid RSO Is More Effective Than Single-Compound Extracts
Traditional RSO was THC-dominant, but research shows that combining multiple cannabinoids and terpenes creates a stronger therapeutic effect—known as the “entourage effect.”
| Cannabinoid | Potential Benefits | Amount in OilWell RSO |
|---|---|---|
| CBD | Anti-anxiety, anti-inflammatory, pain relief | 4,500mg |
| CBG | Neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, gut health | 3,000mg |
| Delta-8 THC | Mild psychoactive, anti-nausea, pain relief | 6,000mg |
| THCa | Non-psychoactive anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective | 1,500mg (can convert to ~1,315mg THC when heated) |
| Delta-9 THC | Pain relief, appetite stimulation, sleep aid | 90mg (Farm Bill-compliant) |
| CBN | Sedative, sleep aid, anti-inflammatory | 750mg |
| CBC | Pain relief, neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory | 750mg |
Total Cannabinoids: 16,590mg per 30mL bottle (553mg per mL)
The Role of Terpenes in RSO
Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in cannabis that enhance its effects. OilWell’s RSO includes 7 terpenes for a full-spectrum experience:
| Terpene | Aroma | Potential Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Limonene | Citrus | Mood enhancement, stress relief |
| Myrcene | Earthy, musky | Sedation, muscle relaxation |
| Caryophyllene | Spicy, peppery | Anti-inflammatory, pain relief |
| Pinene | Pine | Alertness, memory support |
| Linalool | Floral, lavender | Calming, anti-anxiety |
| Humulene | Earthy, woody | Anti-inflammatory, appetite suppressant |
| Terpinolene | Piney, herbal | Sedation, antioxidant |

How to Use RSO in Caldwell County, Kentucky
Dosing Guidelines (Start Low, Go Slow!)
| Condition | Suggested Dose (Sublingual Oil) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Chronic Pain | 0.3–0.5mL (raw) for daytime / 0.5–1.0mL (decarbed) for nighttime | Raw THCa avoids psychoactive effects |
| Anxiety | 0.25–0.5mL (raw) | CBD + CBG help without intoxication |
| Sleep | 1.0–2.0mL (decarbed) | CBN enhances sedation |
| Nausea (Chemo/Other) | 0.5mL (raw) before treatment / Vape for breakthrough nausea | Delta-8 THC is a strong antiemetic |
| General Wellness | 0.25–0.5mL daily | Adjust based on tolerance |
Important: Always consult your doctor before using RSO, especially if you’re on medications.
How to Decarboxylate THCa (Activate for Psychoactive Effects)
If you want the full psychoactive effects of RSO, you can decarboxylate THCa into THC by heating it:
- Preheat oven to 260°F (125°C).
- Place desired amount of RSO in an oven-safe glass container.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes (this converts THCa → THC).
- Let cool before use.
Result: 1,500mg THCa → 1,315mg THC (+90mg existing THC = **1,405mg total THC**).
When to Use Each Format
| Use Case | Best Format | Why? |
|---|---|---|
| Fast relief (pain, nausea, panic) | Vape | 1-2 min onset |
| Sustained relief (chronic pain, sleep) | Sublingual | 4-6 hour duration |
| Daytime non-psychoactive use | Sublingual (raw) | THCa stays inactive |
| Nighttime psychoactive use | Sublingual (decarbed) or Vape | Activated THC + CBN for sleep |
| Precise dosing | Sublingual | Graduated dropper (0.1mL increments) |
