Balanced Veterans Health Network has equipped military vets with over $350,000 worth of resources and grow equipment while helping obtain over 1,000 medical marijuana cards.
that details the health challenges veterans face and offers information on how to use complementary and alternative medicines as a part of treatment. We spoke with Millward to find out more about the Balanced Veterans Network's mission and how cannabis therapy can help veterans readjust to civilian life.Really, to connect veterans and their families to all alternative therapies.
It has been really challenging for us to get the word out there. We’ve been sort of shadow-banned just because we talk about different alternative therapies, and so we really believe that by partnering with them, we were able to reach more veterans and their families to provide this resource. We want to be able to have an easy on-ramp and bridge the gap between the military and the care that folks are receiving outside of that.
In the last five years, we’ve been extremely under-supported, but we’re watching a lot of other special operations organizations and folks with more combat be supported and uplifted in the community. But when you read the statistics, what’s really interesting is that the majority of veterans, close to 90 percent, are non-combat.
Cannabis is amazing, and it’s just one of the tools in our toolbox. We do introductory wellness classes in the areas of yoga, breathing, meditation and fitness. We believe that some of these other modalities can be really helpful in conjunction with or without cannabis. So for myself personally, I’ve noticed that breath work has been a really important tool, and something that has been received well with our community.
