Women’s Health Conditions
Through ongoing research, patient feedback and personal experiences, we are aware of the difficulties women can experience when accessing healthcare services with pain related conditions. We would like to create an opportunity to address this imbalance, with a focus on women’s health. There is a whole host of research to evidence how successful medical cannabis can be in treating a variety of conditions which typically affect women. We hope to guide you on your first steps towards a remarkable improvement of your quality of life.
The complexity of some of the pain related conditions experienced by women often means that holistic and bespoke care is required to address pain fully. This in addition to an open dialogue between patients and clinicians enables us to successfully treat many patients previously suffering with these long term and often debilitating conditions.
Below is a list of some of the conditions we treat relating to women’s health, but please feel free to make contact if you have a diagnosis not on the list and our Patient Care Coordinators are on hand to discuss this with you and guide you through the process of becoming a patient, we are here to support you.
