S.O.C.C.A. Brings You The Highest Quality Medical Cannabis
Cannabis, also known as Marijuana, has been used extensively as a medicinal product since the dawn of time. Archeological evidence supports the use of cannabis going back over 12,000 years. Ancient pharmaceutical texts have been found that document the use of medical marijuana as much as 2,000 years ago.

Recent advances in medicine and pharmacology have demonstrated that medical cannabis is fast becoming the adjuvant treatment of choice a growing list of disorders. These disorders are often left under medicated and the patient has to live with suffering and an impaired quality of life. These disorders include multiple sclerosis, chronic pain syndromes, arthritis, and bipolar disorder, as well as many others. Much research is underway about the benefits that medical cannabis can provide, and the list of treatable conditions is rapidly expanding. A word of warning is in store for the patient, though. Cannabis is a medicinal supplement and cannot be used as a primary medication to treat the underlying disease or disorder. Even so, it is extremely effective in symptomatic management and improving the quality of life of extremely ill patients. These patients have chronic dehabilitating illnesses and a loss of hope of ever living a normal life again. These patients have learned to count on medical cannabis for relief of their symptoms.

The legal systems in Canada and Western Europe are rapidly changing to allow for the treatment of patients with medical cannabis and cannabinoid derived pharmaceuticals. The political climate in the United States still favors complete prohibition in many areas. Thankfully, the tide is turning and the American people have become enlightened to the possibilities that traditional plant-based remedies, such as medical marijuana, can provide in addition to traditional allopathic medicine.
