Nightrider was having a good day

Prevost, QC

I was wondering if someone could answer this question for me please?

One of my wifes main problems i would say is her balance and one of her legs not wanting to work so well wich makes it harder for her to walk and i was wondering if using CBD Oil would help this problem?

Thanks! :o)

CBD oil is for pain and muscular cramping issues - not balance problems. Balance issues can be assisted by physio and exercises. The balance problems we have has no reference to anything other than the lesions we have in our brain or spinal cord. My left leg has for years been one step behind my right leg. It makes for interesting dancing and frustrating walking.

If she has balance problems I would definitely look into physical therapy. They will work on strengthening her legs and work with the balance problems. I used to go to physical therapy and it worked for me unfortunately my prescription from my neurologist has ended. I can work on exercise at home but I don’t have proper equipment. Hope this helps with your question. Also I don’t use cbd oil for anything

I have heard positive results from CBD but don't like to take meds if there are other options. I suggest looking into the MS gym (themsgym.com). I think issues like you are mentioning are covered in the Companion guide portion of the gym. I find when I force myself to workout, I feel good when I find I can do stuff that I thought I would never do again. I think it builds both my confidence and my life skills
