Innovation as a driving force for access to medical cannabis? In Brazil, a first subscription service focused on cannabis-based therapies has just been launched.
Managed by Gravital, a clinic specializing in medical cannabis treatments, the Gravital Club aims to facilitate access to this type of care, while offering a wider range of care. The principle of Gravital Club is to promote well-being and to encourage preventive and integrative medicine.

“Our team of doctors has stressed the importance of monitoring patients’ progress more closely. The intention of Gravital Club is to provide its members with increasingly consistent results through cannabis therapy,” he says.
