Northern Lights Strain UK — Classic Indica for Pain & Sleep
Northern Lights is one of the most celebrated cannabis strains in history and remains a staple in UK medical cannabis prescriptions. This pure indica strain is renowned for its powerful sedating and pain-relieving properties.
Originating from Afghani genetics, Northern Lights contains 15-20% THC with minimal CBD. Its dominant terpenes myrcene and caryophyllene contribute to its earthy, spicy aroma and pronounced physical effects. UK patients primarily use Northern Lights for chronic pain, insomnia, muscle spasms and multiple sclerosis.
Northern Lights is available from multiple manufacturers supplying UK clinics. The strain is particularly well-suited for evening use due to its sedating properties. It is one of the most widely researched medical cannabis strains with a long history of therapeutic use in the Netherlands and Canada.
