Omura Homefill System: An accessibility tool designed to fill flowersticks easily

What is cannabis flower?

The term “cannabis flower” refers to the leaves and buds of the cannabis plant which are dried and cured to prevent degradation and preserve the active compounds (such as cannabinoids and terpenes) within the product. When prescribed for medical purposes in the UK, cannabis flower should only be consumed via vaporisation using a dry herb vaporiser. 

What is a dry herb vaporiser?

Dry herb vaporisers are electronic devices that apply heat to cannabis flower to release the active compounds within in a vapour. This works in a similar way to smoking; however, vaporisers use much lower temperatures, so combustion is not reached. This ensures toxic and harmful chemicals are not released from the plant matter, making for a healthier and effective method of medical cannabis administration. 

How to use a dry herb vaporiser

Using a dry herb vaporiser depends on the type of device. For example, some vaporisers have a "chamber", into which the cannabis flower can be directly placed. This chamber is then heated, releasing the cannabinoid-rich vapour from the flower. 

Other dry herb vaporisers, such as the Omura Flower Vaporiser, accommodate "flowersticks". These are tubes made from biodegradable and compostable materials, which are filled with ground cannabis flower. These sticks act as the carrier for the medical cannabis, as well as the mouthpiece for inhalation. 

Dry herb vaporisers offer a convenient and effective way to administer medical cannabis flower. However, for some patients, preparing their device for administration can be fiddly and impractical. To address this issue, Omura developed the Homefill System - a tool that makes the process of administering medical cannabis more accessible.

What is the Omura Homefill System?

The Omura Homefill System is a revolutionary tool designed to make the process of filling your Omura Flowersticks quicker and simpler. By avoiding the need to fill one stick at a time by hand, the system makes administering your medication quicker and easier than ever. What's more, you can fill up to 16 flowersticks at a time, so you can conveniently load your vaporiser whenever you are in need of relief.

Why accessibility matters

Medical cannabis patients represent a wide range of health conditions and symptoms that can have an impact on all aspects of life. It is therefore crucial that medical cannabis administration is accessible for all patients. The Omura Homefill System allows patients to fill their flowersticks with ease. 

While the system is particularly useful for patients with arthritis, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis and others who may experience problems with dexterity, tremors, or muscle spasms, it is designed to improve the medical cannabis experience for all. 

Best of all? The Omura Homefill System is included in our Releaf Starter Kit, along with the Omura Series X Dry Herb Vaporiser and a stock of Omura Flowersticks, so you can get started straight away. They can be purchased separately (priced at £19.99) in our online shop on the patient platform.
