Course Description:
The increased use of cannabis-related products by individuals across the nation for various health-related conditions and for adult/recreational use calls for the inclusion of cannabis-related knowledge in physical therapy practice. Practicing clinicians must learn to work with their patients who are using cannabis products, how cannabis may affect patients' health and rehabilitation, and the impact cannabis has on the overall health of society. Clinicians who can interact with their cannabis-using patients have an important opportunity to impact the health and wellness of individuals and others in society. This presentation will clarify necessary terminology, explore the proposed benefits and known risks associated with cannabis use, and provide participants with suggested tactics to best address this topic with patients.
