Cancer
The active component of the marijuana plant, cannabinoids, has shown to inhibit tumour growth and kill cancer cells in lab testing. We work with a number of patients who use cannabis to treat their cancer and suppress its side effects.
Seizures
Medical cannabis contains antispasmodic qualities that relax muscles andhas shown to be an effective treatment for seizures. Cannabis oils that are rich in cannabidol (CBD) are the preferred method for treatment.
Chronic pain
