Wellness Series: Medical Marijuana Continued

We had tremendous interest in our Medical Marijuana presentation in August. In October, we hope to further the discussion by answering additional questions posed by attendees. With medical marijuana approaching legalization in Canada, and 29 U.S. states having legalized it, it is obvious that there is strong interest in cannabis' therapeutic properties. Researchers are testing marijuana as a treatment for many illnesses and diseases, including neurological conditions, with Parkinson's disease (PD) high on the list. Join us in October for a follow-up presentation. A video will be played of Benzi Kluger, MD, MS, as he addresses the current cannabis research and its treatment of Parkinson symptoms. Dr. Kluger is an assistant professor of Neurology and Psychiatry and Director of the Movement Disorders Section at the University of Colorado. Dr. Becky Farley will facilitate the discussion and answer questions. To reserve your spot, contact Nancy or Jordan in the PWR!Gym office or by emailing [email protected] Once a month, PWR!Gym will offer presentations and discussions on topics pertaining to living well with Parkinson's disease (ie. Nutrition, sleep, stress management). Please let us know if you have topics of interest to you. Past Wellness Series Archive
