The Marijuana-Syndromes:
Finding Points of Balance

People Can Make Their Own Decisions

I’ve discovered a unique and powerful approach to working with people who take marijuana. It uses the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

In this approach, I respect each person’s lifestyle choices. Then I work to bring them into a state of balance from wherever they are. When they’re in that place of balance, I’ve found that they tend to make better decisions about the things they do in life.

Let People Do What They Want To Do

I encourage people do whatever they want to do and come to their own conclusions about how they want to live. Over the years, this attitude attracted a lot of people who were deeply involved with marijuana to come to me for treatment. As I got to know these people over time, I began to discover, observe and catalogue what I now call the marijuana syndromes, groups of symptom/sign complexes that correlate to distinct levels of a person’s relationship with marijuana and its short and long-term effects on her/his being.

Today, after more than twenty years of working with this unique population, I’ve discerned and distinguished over 200 different marijuana syndromes and how to treat them using acupuncture, Chinese herbs, diet and Qi Gong.

Passing On The Secrets

The marijuana syndromes and their treatments are the secret techniques that I’ve developed over more than two decades of working with a very diverse population at all levels of involvement with marijuana. At this point in my life, I don’t want to keep this knowledge a secret. I want to pass it on to you and others who can carry it forward and develop it even more.

These techniques have become a virtual religion for many of the people that I’ve used them with. I’ve found that these methods are useful not just to the marijuana users themselves, but to everybody they come into contact with as well, including the practitioner who treats them.

Charles Tart’s introduction to On Being Stoned , where he gives a general overview of the history and effects of cannabis. This is where he brings up what I think is one of his most important points: “Marijuana seems to be a rather unique drug in having such profound psychological effects with virtually no readily observable physiological changes.” This is one of the main reasons why I advocate very strongly for much more psychological research on the effects of cannabis in addition to the more physiologically oriented research that we currently find...
