We have Cannabis Infused Lip Balms Made by TinctureBelle!
October 2, 2010 By Leave a Comment
As we head into autumn, the leaves become crisp and so do our lips. TinctureBelle Lip Balms are an excellent way to soothe painful puckers. These balms come in cute, decent sized metal tins in quite savory flavors:
Apple (warm and sweet like a fresh baked pie)
Strawberry (soft and very berry, reminiscent of a first kiss)
Jolly Randy (no, not from “Austin Powers”…candy tasting delight)
Way Watermelon (sweet and juicy–like a ripe piece of melon)
Chocomint (smells just like Ben & Jerry’s Mint Chocolate Chip)
We also carry TinctureBelle Lotions (quenching for thirsty skin), Rubs (relieving for achy muscular issues) and Shisha (giving flavored cannabis a medicinal spin).

Cannabis or marijuana has been used medicinally for thousands of years, and there has never been a reported case of a marijuana overdose. Moreover, in recent years clinical researchers around the world have demonstrated the medicinal value of cannabis.
Research Shows Medical Marijuana Relieves Chronic Nerve Pain
September 14, 2010 By 1 Comment
Now that the research is finally being done, it is becoming well established that Medical Marijuana has very real medical benefits. A recent study published in the journal of the Canadian Medical Association provided the following findings.
Three puffs a day of cannabis, better known as marijuana, helps people with chronic nerve pain due to injury or surgery feel less pain and sleep better, a Canadian team has found.
“It’s been known anecdotally,” says researcher Mark Ware, MD, assistant professor of anesthesia and family medicine at McGill University in Montreal. “About 10% to 15% of patients attending a chronic pain clinic use cannabis as part of their pain [control] strategy,” he tells WebMD.
But Ware’s study is more scientific — a clinical trial in which his team compared placebo with three different doses of cannabis. The research is published in CMAJ, the Canadian Medical Association Journal.

According to Pot Couture, Working Out While Medicating Can Help Women Improve Stamina
September 12, 2010 By 2 Comments
More and more women are becoming MMJ patients. One woman writes how exercising while utilizing marijuana has helped her:
“Can you work out high and improve your stamina? Many women report increased focus, enjoyment, and better results when they toke a bit beforehand!
By Pepper
One of the maxims I’ve always followed is to never work out while drunk – something about not mixing alcohol and heavy machinery. So it was with great skepticism that I listened to several friends recount their positive experiences of working out while high. One said that it helps dull cramps her so she can focus on exercising while another insisted that it makes the workout fly by. Today, I tried it for myself, and it wasn’t half bad!

When it comes to medical marijuana in Colorado there has been a little confusion over the differences between what we used to call “dispensaries” and what we now refer to as “centers”. Be assured there is effectively to our client no difference. The reason for the shift from dispensaries to centers in Colorado is simply a matter of adhering to a change in state law regulating the sale of medical marijuana.
Changes in the law require us to now refer to the old dispensaries and dispensary as centers and center. But in terms of service, our medical marijuana centers in Denver and Colorado Springs will still provide you medicine you have come to expect at the prices you can afford.

VA Easing Rules for Users of Medical Marijuana
July 29, 2010 By Leave a Comment
The New York Times is reporting on July 23rd that effective this month the VA will allow veterans legally using medical marijuana to use MMJ without risking the loose of their VA prescribed pain medications.
DENVER – The Department of Veterans Affairs will formally allow patients treated at its hospitals and clinics to use medical marijuana in states where it is legal, a policy clarification that veterans have sought for several years.
A department directive, expected to take effect next week, resolves the conflict in veterans facilities between federal law, which outlaws marijuana, and the 14 states that allow medicinal use of the drug, effectively deferring to the states.
The policy will not permit department doctors to prescribe marijuana. But it will address the concern of many patients who use the drug that they could lose access to their prescription pain medication if caught. [read the full article ...]
Total Health Concepts thinks this is an excellent policy shift by the VA for medical the needs of our veterans and validates the treatment of service related chronic pain and other conditions with medical marijuana.
