Severe Chronic Pain

Amendment 20 to the Colorado Constitution allows for medical use of marijuana for relief of chronic or sever pain. This broad condition allows for the use of marijuana in Colorado for numerous conditions which cause a person pain. Prescription pain medications are some of the most addicting drugs to patients, which is why it is commonly accepted that marijuana use for pain relief is an acceptable medicine to reduce or eliminate the use of other more addicting and harmful medications.

We specialize in managing our patient’s pain, regardless of its severity. We believe, as the voters of Colorado did, that it is not the place of the law to prevent a person from using a medication like marijuana to relieve them of pain when it has been proven by many studies to be an effective form of pain relief.
