Regain natural balance with
CBD Consultations
Dr. Shane's approach also utilizes CBD (cannabidiol) to help regulate the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS is one of the many connected systems of the body utilized in maintaining homeostasis (natural balance).
Note: The use of any supplements, including CBD, can potentially interact with over the counter (OTC) and/or prescription medications. A patient should always discuss the use of CBD & potential drug interactions with the prescribing physician. Known drug interactions with CBD have been confirmed through research studies.
CBD Consultation includes:
CBD education
Patient medical history
Evaluation of needs for potential CBD supplementation
Recommendation for CBD supplement and/or topical CBD
The Endocannabinoid System (ECS)
The ECS is a biological system consisting of receptor sites, enzymes, and receptors throughout the body. This system is regulated by neurotransmitters (cannabinoids) made by the body (endocannabinoids) or supplementation (phytocannabinoids). These neurotransmitters (cannabinoids) fit like a “lock and key” to activate specific responses throughout the brain & body aiding with the process of homeostasis (natural balance).
The ECS receptors sites most commonly referred to are CB1 and CB2, although there are more. The CB1 sites more commonly found in the central nerve system (brain & spinal cord), while CB2 is primarily found in the peripheral nerve system (nerves/muscles/organs outside of the spine). CB2 receptors are also found in the central nerve system but to lesser extent than CB1.
