Why Medical Marijuana?

  • Chronic Pain

    Patients report experiencing significant relief from pain resulting from a variety of causes with medical marijuana. There also is the potential for patients to decrease narcotic usage and thus reduced unwanted pain medication side effects.

  • Cancer

    Potential benefits include reduced cancer related pain, chemotherapy/radiation induced nausea, loss of appetite and sleep disturbances.

  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

    Medical marijuana has been reported to decrease anxiety levels, sleep difficulties and the severity of nightmares.

  • Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

    Patients have found medical marijuana eases IBD related pain, limits the frequency of diarrhea, and can help patients to gain weight.

  • Anxiety

    Patients report that medical marijuana is highly effective in relieving their symptoms of anxiety.

  • Glaucoma

    Medical marijuana may help to lower eye pressure which can help to decrease the blinding effects of glaucoma.
