What Is Rick Simpson Oil (RSO)?

The Origins: Rick Simpson’s Story

Rick Simpson, a Canadian engineer, became a household name in the cannabis world after claiming that concentrated cannabis oil helped him recover from skin cancer in 2003. His story—though never clinically verified—sparked a global movement, inspiring thousands to try RSO (Rick Simpson Oil) for conditions like cancer, chronic pain, and insomnia.

Simpson’s original protocol involved:

• 60 grams of high-THC oil over 90 days
• Slow titration (starting with tiny doses, gradually increasing)
• Oral and topical application

While Simpson’s personal experience was powerful, his method had major limitations:
❌ No lab testing – Every batch was different.
❌ High THC exposure – Up to 900mg of THC per day, far exceeding clinical recommendations.
❌ Solvent risks – Used naphtha or isopropyl alcohol, which can leave harmful residues.
❌ No terpenes – Heat destroyed the aromatic compounds that may enhance effects.

OilWell’s Modern RSO: Safer, Smarter, More Effective

At OilWell, we honor Simpson’s legacy but improve upon it with:
✔ Lab-tested, solvent-free extraction (no harmful solvents)
✔ 7 cannabinoids + 7 terpenes (not just THC)
✔ THCa as a key ingredient (non-psychoactive until heated)
✔ Two formats (sublingual oil & vape cartridge)
✔ Legal under the 2018 Farm Bill (ships nationwide, including Cherokee County)

How OilWell’s RSO Works: The Science Behind the Formula

1. Seven Cannabinoids for Full-Spectrum Relief

Unlike traditional RSO (which was mostly THC), OilWell’s formula includes seven cannabinoids, each with unique benefits:

Total Cannabinoids: 16,590mg (553mg per mL)

2. Seven Terpenes for Enhanced Effects

Terpenes are aromatic compounds that may boost cannabinoid effects (the “entourage effect”). Our formula includes:

3. Two Formats for Different Needs

Which should you choose?

• Sublingual Oil → Chronic pain, sleep, daily use
• Vape Cartridge → Breakthrough pain, acute symptoms

Why Cherokee County Residents Prefer OilWell’s RSO

1. Legal & Accessible (No Medical Card Needed)

• Farm Bill compliant (less than 0.3% delta-9 THC)
• Ships to Cherokee County (discreet packaging, fast delivery)
• No Iowa medical card required (just 21+)

2. Patient-Controlled Potency

• Raw (non-psychoactive) → Use during the day (THCa stays inactive)
• Decarboxylated (psychoactive) → Heat at home to activate THC
• Vape (auto-decarbs) → Instant relief

How to decarb at home:

1. Place oil in an oven-safe glass container.
2. Heat at 260°F for 45-60 minutes.
3. 1,500mg THCa → ~1,315mg delta-9 THC (plus existing 90mg = ~1,405mg total THC).

3. Open-Source Formulas (Make Your Own if You Can’t Afford It)

We believe in accessibility. If you can’t afford our RSO, we publish the exact formula so you can source ingredients and make it yourself.
