JINSHUCBD + CBG Herbal Balm

Our Story

Ancient Wisdom, Modern Craft

Where ancient herbal artistry meets modern science

Rooted in tradition. Jinshu draws from centuries of Chinese herbal artistry — the thick, fragrant balms that grandmothers kept in lacquered tins. We studied the old formulas not to copy them, but to understand what made them endure.

Three expressions, one philosophy. Traditional balm-makers understood that the body responds to sensation in different ways. Some moments call for deep, sustained warmth. Others need crisp, cooling freshness. And sometimes, the most powerful response comes from both — layered together. Jinshu honors all three.

Refined with care. We didn't just inherit old recipes. We reworked them batch by batch, adjusting ratios until the balm delivered the sensory experience the tradition inspired.

Purposeful Ingredients

The skin responds to what touches it — and Jinshu's formulation is that touch, made deliberate. Cannabinoids, traditional resins and aromatics, and a carefully layered cooling-and-warming system, carried in a smooth, skin-conditioning base. Nothing filler. Everything purposeful.

Two Minds, One Mission

Jinshu Balm was born when two paths converged — one rooted in botanical formulation and natural product manufacturing, the other in classical Chinese medicine.

方
Formulation & Manufacturing
Nearly a decade spent formulating and manufacturing botanical products — tinctures, topicals, and herbal blends from raw ingredient to finished jar. Years of running a cGMP-certified facility shaped a hands-on understanding of what it takes to make something worth reaching for, batch after batch. Jinshu is made in small batches with the same habits: written batch records, traceable ingredients and a lab test on every batch.
医
Traditional Chinese Medicine
A Licensed Acupuncturist trained in classical Chinese medicine, with years of clinical experience in acupuncture, cupping, and gua sha. Deep knowledge of herbal traditions and the mind-body connection shaped the aromatic and botanical heart of Jinshu — the warming-cooling sensory system and carefully chosen botanicals that define the experience.

Together, they created Jinshu Balm — a warming and cooling herbal balm where Eastern herbal wisdom meets Western formulation craft.
