Endocannabinoid Medicine: A Gateway to Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy
Description
Join this FREE, 60-minute online webinar to gain access to insights and learn about groundbreaking treatments to chronic mental health conditions.
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is essential for human homeostasis. An ancient signalling system ubiquitous in vertebrates. There is increasing evidence that ECS dysregulation results in numerous diseases as well inhibiting the bodies innate healing response. As we look to the future of psychedelic assisted therapy programmes endocannabinoid medicine will have a vital role to play in preparing people for the assisted psychotherapy process.
This session will explore:
- What is the ECS?
- How is the ECS involved in the development and treatment of PTSD / anxiety / depression?
- How can we manipulate the ECS to improve assisted psychotherapy outcomes?
