Balancing

Disclaimer: We are patients who use cannabis for medicinal purposes and are sharing our own experiences. We are not medical professionals. 

Here is an overview of how balancing cannabis strains can have different effects on medical conditions depending on the individual diagnosis:

In general: Balancing cannabis strains are often valued for their versatility. They may be particularly suitable for people new to the medical use of cannabis, as they offer a balanced middle ground between deep relaxation and pronounced cerebral effects.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): Balancing strains can not only promote mental clarity and focus, but also simultaneously enable physical relaxation. This proves particularly beneficial for people with ADHD who suffer from both attention deficits and hyperactivity.

Chronic pain: Balancing cannabis strains can not only offer mental distraction from pain but also provide physical relief. Their versatility makes them a promising option in pain therapy.

Multiple sclerosis (MS): The balanced composition of certain balancing cannabis strains can help manage both physical symptoms such as muscle cramps and mental challenges such as fatigue and mood swings in people with MS.

Glaucoma: Although the main benefit of cannabis for glaucoma is in lowering intraocular pressure, a balancing cannabis strain can also help to cope with the stress and anxiety often associated with this condition.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): Balancing cannabis strains can not only promote relaxation but also improve sleep quality and elevate mood. These properties can help effectively manage the symptoms of PTSD.

Anxiety: The calming and uplifting effects of balancing cannabis strains can help reduce anxiety and ensure that the effect does not tend excessively towards sedation or overstimulation.

Depression: The uplifting effects of balancing cannabis strains can help combat feelings of sadness, while the calming properties can simultaneously provide support in cases of accompanying anxiety or restlessness.

Arthritis: The synergistic effect of anti-inflammatory properties and mood-enhancing effects can provide both physical relief and a positive influence on mood.

Insomnia: A balancing cannabis strain can improve the process of falling asleep while ensuring that the user does not feel excessively groggy or sedated.


In general, the effects of different cannabis strains are perceived very individually. What is invigorating and calming for one person might be anxiety-inducing for another. Therefore, it is always recommended that patients start with a low dose and adjust it according to their personal experience.

For the safe medical use of cannabis, it is essential to always consult a medical professional. They can take individual needs and health conditions into account to ensure optimal dosage and application.

It is important to note that ongoing research on cannabis and its medical applications will provide more detailed insights in the future.
