We’re able to support any person who has been experiencing pain for longer than 3 months - ‘chronic pain’.

To be considered for medical cannabis treatment plans you’ll need to meet additional criteria:

• You’ll need to be 18 years ago or over

• Your pain is not improving despite current best evidence treatment on the NHS or equivalent. This differs from condition to condition but might mean you’ve been prescribed a number of different medications or tried injections. For an idea of what this might include, see the ‘Treatments’ section of the NHS website for your condition - like here for Fibromyalgia. Your Pain Consultant will discuss the specific criteria with you at your initial consultation.

• Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding are not eligible for medical cannabis treatment.

• If you’ve previously experienced psychosis or schizophrenia we may require a psychology assessment first.

Please note, any prescription decisions are at the discretion of our pain consultants.

Your first pain assessment (initial consultation) will be with a specialist pain consultant online via video call and will last approx 30 minutes.

During your appointment, you will discuss your medical history, the medications you’ve previously tried and your goals for treatment. Based on this, your consultant will create a personalised treatment plan for you.

The treatment plan will look holistically at your pain, how it impacts your life and what you'd like to achieve. It will balance medication, lifestyle and changes to your relationship with pain.

If you and your consultant agree that medical cannabis is a suitable treatment option for you they'll issue a prescription. You may be prescribed medication in the form of an oil, a flower or a combination of both. This will be discussed with you during you appointment with the consultant.

Your plan may also include further assessment, support and treatment from other members of our clinical team.

Appointments with other members of the clinical team, such as physiotherapists, psychologists and specialist pain nurses range from £99-£150 per appointment.

If you and your consultant agree that medical cannabis is a suitable treatment option for you they'll issue a prescription. You may be prescribed medication in the form of an oil, a flower or a combination of both. This will be discussed with you during you appointment with the consultant.
