Recover with Cannabis

The Endocannabinoid System (ECS) is involved in regulating various physiological processes, including stress response, mood, pain perception, and inflammation. CBD, CBG, and THC interact with the body's endocannabinoid system, to reduce inflammation, support bone growth, and helps reduce the pain post a heavy workout.

Here's a Comprehensive list of all the research into how cannabis - specifically the cannabinoids CBD, CBG, and THC, can support the recovery of muscular and skeletal systems by reducing the harmful effects of inflammation and supporting the body's natural ability to renew and rejuvenate.

Musculoskeletal Recovery

When we exercise, our muscle fibers experience microtrauma, triggering an inflammatory response that is crucial for muscle repair and growth. This is the process that builds strength and resilience but it can be painful and in some cases require extended periods of recovery. In those cases, CBD, CBC, and CBG act as super anti-inflammatories, and in recent research CBG and CBC are both being studied for their impacts on bone growth.

Inflammation and Pain regulation during the recovery process

When we are recovering from Major surgery often the pain we experience is due to extended inflammation, Due the the opioid epidemic in the USA doctors and researchers are looking more closely at these super anti-inflammatories in combination with THC for pain regulation. Consult with your doctor before integrating cannabis into your recovery routine.

Recovery from Somatic Trauma

According to the National Center for PTSD, about 6% of the U.S. population (approximately 12 million adults) will experience PTSD at some point in their lives. Women are more than twice as likely as men to develop PTSD. The DSM-5 classifies PTSD symptoms into four categories: re-experiencing, avoidance, negative cognitions and mood, and arousal.

A 2009 study by Bonn-Miller et al., published in the Journal of Anxiety Disorders, found that individuals with PTSD were more likely to use cannabis and that cannabis use was associated with fewer PTSD symptoms. However, the cross-sectional nature of the study prevented the authors from determining a causal relationship.

Since then, several studies have explored the potential benefits of cannabis for PTSD, suggesting it may help reduce anxiety, intrusive memories, and sleep disturbances while promoting homeostasis and allowing patients to focus on recovery. However, more research is needed to fully understand the effects of cannabis on PTSD and establish its safety and efficacy as a treatment option.
