cannabinoid therapy

Cannabinoid therapy uses compounds found in cannabis, known as cannabinoids, to help treat various medical conditions. These compounds, like THC and CBD, interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system, which helps regulate functions such as pain, mood, and inflammation. Patients might use cannabinoid therapy to alleviate symptoms of conditions like chronic pain, anxiety, or epilepsy. It can be administered in various forms, including oils, capsules, or edibles. While research is ongoing, many individuals report positive effects, making it an increasingly explored option in modern medicine. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting any new treatment.
