In the initial position, the swimmer lies flat on their back; arms stretched forward, and legs extended backwards. In backstroke, the arms contribute most of the forward movement. The arm stroke consists of two main parts: the power phase (consisting of three separate parts) and the recovery. The arms alternate so that always one arm is underwater while the other arm is recovering. One complete arm turn is considered one cycle.
Some of these movement disorders that are candidates for marijuana-based therapies include dystonias, Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Tourette's syndrome. It is equally important to remember that anxiety and stress are likely to aggravate movement disorders symptoms.
The Parkinsonâs Foundation makes life better for people with Parkinsonâs disease by improving care and advancing research toward a cure. With medical marijuana now legalized in 29 states and Washington, D.C., it is obvious that there is strong interest in its therapeutic properties. Researchers are testing marijuana, which is also called cannabis, as a treatment for many illnesses and diseases, including neurological conditions, with Parkinson's disease (PD) high on the list. But despite several clinical studies, it has not been demonstrated that cannabis can directly benefit people with PD.
