About Us
OUR STORY
Aromox began as a natural bridge between aromatherapy and respiratory science through inhalation delivery devices. Dan Normand, founder and CEO of Aromox, has worked in the medical device industry for over thirty years. Honing his craft in respiratory technology, Dan helped to make bulky breathing systems portable and practical, allowing patients to leave the hospital and get to be among their friends and families.
Before Aromox, Dan was crafting LifeFlo, a single use portable device that provides emergency oxygen. But a problem arose: how would the user know that oxygen was flowing? Dan wanted to add a pleasant scent that calmed users in times of imminent crisis, contrary to the smell of natural gas. While investigating different fragrances, Dan immersed into the world of aromatherapy, and thus came to an epiphany.
The AromaTrip system creates consistency and repeatability on a personal level so users experience the same scent, at the same intensity, time and time again. The aroma may be the same, but the experience, and where that experience takes you, is as unique as each user. Aromatherapy may incite conflicting beliefs, and sales advocates may conflate its potentially positive results, but Aromox focuses on the fundamental facts of its aroma system: it blocks out unpleasant odors, provides targeted aromatherapy, can ward of harmful microbes, and takes the user on a trip of their own creation.
Recently Dan has ventured into the sport of Pickleball. Pickleball, one of the fastest growing sports in America, involves high intensity and focused athletic performance to be at the highest levels. Aromox's Paddle Cleanse - Player Performance Kit allows Pickleball players of all abilities to add consistency and focus to their play.
Aromox gives flexibility to the aromatherapy user whose potential applications are only limited to their imagination. Dan’s goal to create a life vest turned into a vessel to distant shores of the mind, bringing aromatherapy into the 21st Century.
