Natures Medicine "We may not be the first, but we are the best"
We are welcoming Natures Medicine this week, a dispensary and a wellness center. This is the second shop for Natures Medicine, Dusty was introduced to the shop in Loveland, Co. Dusty decided that a wellness center could bring great benefits to MMJ patients and area residents. The wellness center is open to the public and when you walk through the doors you will not even know they dispense MMJ, pot leaves will not be shoved in your face its very discreet.
He has a Chinese herbalist that can help with your symptoms just by looking at a picture of your tongue. There are Chinese herbs on site as well as vitamins, supplements, minerals and a core group of strains of Medical Marijuana. The staff will be able to help find a stain that will best suit your needs. You will also be able to buy, pipes, vaporizers and rolling papers, as long as you have your MMJ card.
One thing that sets Natures Medicine apart from the rest is that there are three rooms that are set aside to get different types of messages and meditation. Certified message therapist will be on site, if you have your MMJ card an hour message will run approx $25.
Dusty was hoping to be the first dispensary to open up but said "We may not be the first, but we are the best". He hopes that he has set a standard for more dispensaries to come. Dusty served for his country in the Navy and is an Iraq war veteran, he also went to Indonesia and aided in the relief effort after the 2004 tsunami.
When asked where his interest in holistic comes from, Higgins says:"I want to help people attain a better quality of life. I watched my Grandfather wither away while he battled leukemia. Malnutrition affects around 85% of cancer victims and it kills. I believe in these treatments and I want to help others in similar situations help them reduce their pain levels, help those suffering from appetite loss to eat a full meal and put weight back on.

Nature's Alternatives The First Dispensary in Grand Junction Co.
Having one MMJ dispensary is great but having two is even better. I had the great pleasure to sit down and talk with Brenton and John, the owners of Nature's Alternatives. Its very exciting to see two dispensaries right here in our little town of Junction. What a lot of people may not seem to realize, is that Nature's Alternatives opened on April 20th, (what a great day to open). They started off with patients that drove all the way from Aspen Colorado, with the help of newspaper ads and word of mouth local patients are getting the medicine they need.
As you walk into the door you are greeted with a handshake, smile, and a very relaxed professional atmosphere. One of the unique qualities that Nature's Alternatives has to offer is a traveling Doctor. If someone is in Hospice or too sick to visit a doctor the 
doctor will come to them with the help of Nature's Alternatives. They have secured a Colorado state licensed doctor, which means the visit for recommendations will be slightly cheaper than CannaMed if you qualify for the recommendation. One of the great services they are going to offer are Grow Clinics, plus they will help you trouble shoot if you are having problems with your medicinal plants. In the near future they would like to get a fundraiser together to help out with patients that are on SSI, a limited income or in Hospice.
