Our Story
Our journey began in 2001 when our founder, David Pauwels, started growing cannabis for medicinal purposes. In 2010, David was able to purchase a medical cannabis dispensary in Los Angeles called AlternaMeds. Unfortunately, AlternaMeds was forced to close its doors due to Prop D. This setback inspired David to think outside the box and create something unique in the cannabis industry. He spent the next few years developing a special product that would stand out from the rest. In 2014 his father was undergoing therapy with activated oxygen sparked his interest in combining activated oxygen with cannabis.
After consulting with medical professionals, David began formulating his activated oxygen-infused cannabis cosmetics. By combining the pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties of cannabis with the cleansing and healing effects of activated oxygen, he saw promising results for pain relief and skin health. Positive feedback encouraged him to pursue his idea further. David took steps to patent the formula use of activated oxygen and cannabis in 2018. In 2015, he also developed processes to manufacture cannabis paper products, showcasing his innovative thinking and commitment to pushing boundaries in the industry.
