The inspiration
The inspiration comes from the Medicine Buddha or Healing Buddha. In the traditional paintings called Tibetan thangkas, he is surrounded by various herbal medicines with halos of healing energy radiating from his head and body. With his left hand he holds a bowl of healing nectars, and with his right, a medicine plant. His body is blue, radiating the healing color of Lapis Lazuli. The Medicine Buddha is also called the Blue Buddha and is described as a healer whose purpose is to ease suffering and illness, generating physical, mental and spiritual health. Blue Buddha Therapeutics© is the pairing of the old with the new, ancient wisdom and modern knowledge, sharing with you the most unique CBD products in the world.

Welcome to Blue Buddha Therapeutics©
We are Gordon and Victoria Merkle, founders and creators of BBT. Together, we have over 60 years of experience in the healing arts.
In addition, for the past 30 years, we have been in private practice in Acupuncture, Herbal and Functional Medicine and Healing. For the past 3 decades we have taught a graduate level program in Energy Medicine and Healing and partnered in a research study for UCSD. For years we had developed and produced topical herbal products based on ancient recipes that proved to be extremely effective in treating pain, injuries and promoting faster healing time. Noticing that time and time again people in our private practice and training classes were all encountering the same roadblocks to their health and wellbeing, we then created a vibrational tincture line of products, prepared in a similar way to flower essences, that target and quickly address these blocks.
We have worked extensively on the benefits of CBD within our clinic and with other doctors, chiropractors, acupuncturists and healers. We searched for the highest quality THC free CBD that would give the greatest benefits and what we found far exceeded our expectations.
This is when Blue Buddha Therapeutics© came to life. By combining our ancient herbal formulas, vibrational tinctures, and a highly absorbable form of CBD, the real magic happened and Transdermal SynergyTM was discovered! We knew we had something special here. The speed with which it worked and the synergistic effects of three products combined into one bottle opened our eyes to the possibilities as practitioners of how this could be applied beyond how CBD is currently used.

Transdermal SynergyTM
We started using the Transdermal SynergyTM products with our private practice clients and we knew we needed to share the powers of Transdermal SynergyTM with the world. We look forward to sharing with you the latest innovations and discoveries we make and are very excited to begin this journey together to bring health, happiness and the best quality of life to you that we together can imagine!
