I incorporate a multi-cannabinoid approach that is designed to improve your Endocannabinoid System with a holistic approach to food, movement, and sleep, as well as personalized guidance on integrating cannabis use into your health regimen. A bit more about the Endocannabinoid System (ECS) which we will explore in detail together throughout our program. The ECS has one job — to keep the body’s various systems in a state of balance. It operates as a system of locks and keys. And there are enzymes in the body that produce endocannabinoids when the body faces things like stress, chronic pain, anxiety, inflammation, and more.These endocannabinoids (the keys) are following a message to find the appropriate receptors to lock into and restore balance.Phyto-cannabinoids (plant based, introduced into the body by choice), like THC and CBD from the cannabis plant, act just like the endocannabinoids we produce. So when your endocannabinoid system is out of whack, cannabis can be used intentionally to help bring balance to the body.
Terpenes
Terpenes are the essential oils found naturally in all plants. They are responsible for the scent and flavor in Cannabis plants. Most terpenes are anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and act as antioxidants; they have other therapeutic benefits as well. We will identify appropriate terpenes to target for your maximum benefit.
Cannabinoids
While THC is the well-known intoxicating cannabinoid, cannabis is actually comprised of over 200 cannabinoids (with more being discovered every day). CBN and THCV also have specific benefits. Popular yet non-intoxicating Cannabinoids such as CBD, CBG, and CBC are equally valuable. Targeting appropriate Cannabinoids for specific symptoms results in an efficient and consistent result.
The Journey...
I invite you to join me on the path to experiencing the true healing power of supporting your Endocannabinoid System using the appropriate Terpenes and Cannabinoids to achieve a more healthy lifestyle.
