Spinal Cord Injury & Cannabis (Medical Marijuana, Oil for Spinal Cord Treatment & Recovery)

I discuss the connection between spinal cord injury and cannabis, medical marijuana and cbd oil as an approach for spinal cord treatment & recovery. Cannabidiol is a non-psychoactive component of cannabis or marijuana. It’s now legal in many places, and has become very popular for treating a variety of physical ailments. Is CBD oil safe, and can it improve the treatment and recovery from spinal cord injury? Studies have shown that cannabis stimulates neuroprotective response, activating CB1 and CB2, promoting spontaneous recovery. The overall opinion towards cannabis is rapidly evolving. People with spinal cord injuries are passionate about learning more about how it can be used to treat pain.
