It is absolutely insane to me the efficacy of cannabis on both pain relief and insomnia, especially considering that people take heavy opiates and benzos to help with the same.
As we move into more widespread acceptance of herbal medicine, this is just going to get better. We know someone in steamboat who has been making various medicinal tinctures for a long time, and a lot of other herbs can have synergistic effects with the cannabis. You can also age the cannabis linger to increase sleepiness effect. Anyway, for people looking for help with insomnia or pain relief, I would definitely recommend giving it a try. If you can find a quality herbalist who produces tinctures specific to your symptoms, all the better. That may be difficult if you still live in a prohibition state though.
