Cannabis Therapy

This non-fiction guide is written for adults seeking a thoughtful, evidence-based look at cannabis as medicine.

It speaks to health practitioners, caregivers, and individuals exploring self-care, with a calm, educational, and encouraging tone. The book examines the science behind cannabis therapy—focusing on the endocannabinoid system and how plant compounds interact with it—while also sharing a historical perspective and myths to demystify the topic. It presents more than 20 cannabis medicines, detailing each one's time of onset, duration, target areas, and conditions treated, plus safe, practical home-use options.

It also includes recipes for making simple medicines at home and detailed guidance for psychoactive and non-psychoactive teas, tinctures, oils, salves, and aromatherapy remedies, enabling practical experimentation in safe settings. - More than 20 cannabis medicines described with onset, duration, ta
