Cannabis for Chronic Pain
Cannabis has been used for pain relief for millennia. Modern research confirms that specific terpene and cannabinoid profiles can provide significant relief for chronic pain conditions, with some terpene combinations shown to be as effective as morphine without the addiction risk.

The Science
Caryophyllene activates CB2 receptors for direct pain modulation. Myrcene works through opioid pathways without tolerance development. Linalool blocks NMDA receptors. Humulene inhibits COX-2 enzymes.
Supporting Research
Non-inhaled medical cannabis results in small to very small improvement in pain relief, physical functioning, and sleep quality.
