Most Popular Cannabis Strains for Pain Reduction

Marijuana can be the solution to reduce acute and chronic pain. The studies and evidence show moderate to high effectiveness of cannabis for pain relief: fibromyalgia, neuropathy, back pain, headache, migraine, and muscle spasms from multiple sclerosis.

Our bodies detect painful sensations through peripheral nerves, which contain cannabinoid receptors. The marijuana plant contains cannabinoids. They mimic anandamide (which is the body’s natural cannabinoid) and help the body to dampen ache signals. An increased number of users turn to marijuana for pain, since they prefer a natural alternative to traditional painkillers.

But not all cannabis strains are effective for every condition. It depends on their THC/CBD ratio, terpenes, medicinal properties, and potential side effects. We did an in-depth research and created a list of the best weed strains for pain.
