What goes into a consultation?
CBD consultations offer a focused assessment on the use of CBD (cannabidiol) as a natural and safe option.
Consultations offer complete, in-depth assessment of your unique needs and the ways CBD can be used as part of a treatment plan to help with your specific concerns. After the visit, you will feel educated and informed about CBD and how it is unique from cannabis.
Consultations are offered both in-person and remotely through phone or Zoom, and with options to have products shipped safely to your house.
These consultations are available to people living all over the United States and do not require a prescription or a medical marijuana card. All the products we offer online and in person are similar to those sold in a dispensary or what we call “pharmaceutical grade.”

What is CBD?
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the many different compounds, known as cannabinoids, found in the cannabis plant. Cannabinoids are unique because they act on cannabinoid receptors that are part of the endocannabinoid system found throughout the body.
Every being with a spine has receptors to activate and bind with cannabis! That means great for the whole family. And its the only plant in the world that can CLOTHE US, FEED US, HOUSE US and HEAL US!
Medical research shows us that CBD partnered with other cannabanoids found in the plant can offer incredible relief to symptoms associated with many ailments. The FDA has recently approved CBD in epileptic medicines and have many clinical trials, studies and patents.
