It happens every autumn. You get back from vacation and you make a pact with yourself that next year you’re going to look just a bit fitter on the beach. Like many others, you join up with the gym, go to the weights room all enthusiastic and, ouch……… Yep, muscle strain…..
A lot of stuff has been written about CBD in the treatment of injuries, but, at Marijuana Games, we like our cannabis with a bit of THC. So, here we’ll tell you a little about the latest research on THC and injury recovery, but we’ll also answer questions like…
Where do I get weed in Madrid?
Can you smoke marijuana legally in Spain?

So, you overdid it in the gym. What now?
Well, in recent years, there has been a growing interest in the potential therapeutic benefits of tetrahydrocannabinol in the treatment of injuries. While THC is primarily known for its psychoactive effects – and, by the way, that’s how we like it! – it also has anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and neuroprotective properties that may have a role in managing various types of injuries.
But, what is the current state of research on THC as a potential treatment for injuries?
Ready for some serious stuff? As you know, THC interacts with the endocannabinoid system (ECS) in the human body, a complex network of receptors and molecules that play a crucial role in regulating various physiological processes, including pain, inflammation, and immune response. When THC binds to cannabinoid receptors, it can have both therapeutic and psychoactive effects. If you’re interested in this more fully, then why not read the following article;-

If that article seems a little long, then in a nutshell……………One of the most well-documented therapeutic effects of THC is its ability to manage pain. It does this by interacting with the ECS to modulate pain signaling pathways. In the context of injuries, THC may help reduce pain and improve the overall comfort of patients. This can be particularly valuable in cases of acute injuries, such as fractures, muscle strains, or post-surgery pain management. However, it’s important to note that the analgesic effects of THC can vary among individuals, and its use should be carefully monitored and controlled.
Inflammation is a natural response to injuries, and while it is essential for the body’s healing process, excessive or prolonged inflammation can lead to tissue damage and chronic pain. THC has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties by modulating the immune response. This can be beneficial in cases of soft tissue injuries, such as sprains and strains, as well as in conditions where chronic inflammation is a contributing factor to pain and tissue damage. THC’s anti-inflammatory effects, however, may be less predictable and should be approached with caution.
Injuries to the nervous system, such as traumatic brain injuries or spinal cord injuries, can have long-lasting and devastating effects. THC has demonstrated potential neuroprotective properties, which means it may help protect nerve cells from further damage. While the research in this area is still in its early stages, some studies suggest that THC could play a role in mitigating the consequences of neurological injuries.
Evidently, the legal status of THC is a problem for residents of the less progressive countries and states where possession and consumption are considered illegal. If you’re a gym-bunny with muscle strain – or even if you’re not – Marijuana Games can help you join a legitimate private cannabis social club. In Spain, in the privacy of your own home, or in the privacy of a private members’ club, you are protected by strict privacy laws. This is a loophole which cannabis clubs can take advantage of.
We do not own cannabis clubs, we simply offer our sponsorship to join cannabis clubs. We can help you join in the following places:-

As we’ve said before, Marijuana Games does not sell marijuana and we cannot guarantee the strains you may find in a cannabis club. But, we would recommend these strains known for their anti-inflammatory properties:-
Blueberry: While not as high in CBD as the previous strains, Blueberry is known for its calming effects and may provide some relief from inflammation and pain.
Sour Diesel: Sour Diesel is a high-THC strain, but some users report anti-inflammatory effects and mental clarity without excessive sedation.
OG Kush: Like Sour Diesel, OG Kush is high in THC but has a reputation for potential anti-inflammatory benefits and relaxation.
Pennywise: This is a balanced CBD-to-THC strain that is often used for anti-inflammatory purposes, as well as pain management.
Ringo’s Gift: Ringo’s Gift is a high-CBD strain known for its therapeutic potential, particularly for reducing inflammation.
The use of THC in the treatment of injuries is a topic of ongoing research and debate. While it has shown promise in managing pain, reducing inflammation, and potentially protecting the nervous system, there are significant challenges and considerations, including legal issues, psychoactive effects, and potential side effects. As the medical community continues to explore the potential benefits of THC, it is essential to approach its use with caution and under the guidance of healthcare professionals. In the future, we may see more refined and targeted applications of THC in injury treatment, but until then, its use remains a complex and evolving field. In the meantime, feel free to contact us for sponsorship to a carefully researched and trusted cannabis club in Spain. Oh yeah, and go easy in the gym!
