Spasticity/Muscle Control

Showing 1–36 of 38 results

Spasticity is characterized by involuntary muscle stiffness and spasms, often resulting from neurological conditions like multiple sclerosis (MS), cerebral palsy, or spinal cord injuries. Traditional treatments include medications such as baclofen and tizanidine, but these can have side effects like drowsiness and fatigue. Cannabis has emerged as a potential alternative, with certain strains offering muscle-relaxing properties that may alleviate spasticity symptoms.

How Cannabis May Help

Cannabis interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system, which plays a role in regulating muscle tone and movement. Both THC and CBD, the primary cannabinoids in cannabis, have been studied for their potential to reduce muscle spasticity. THC may help by activating receptors that modulate muscle control, while CBD is noted for its anti-inflammatory properties. A balanced ratio of THC to CBD is often recommended for optimal relief.
