TOP REVIEWS FROM MEDICAL CANNABIS FOR PAIN CONTROL
I am so happy that this course and school was suggested to me. I was apprehensive to jump back into lessons and tests, etc, but I'm really grateful I did. Helping my career and mind.
So far it has been a fascinating course and I really like the calm voice and assuredness with which the professor explains things.
Well presented, easy to follow, especially for a first time learner of the subject! Thank you
Very informative course for beginners, who are not familiar with the cannabis plant, do not have a background in physiological causes of pain and pain control methods.
