How Infusion Therapeutics began

Infusion Therapeutics was founded when Ashley Schnitker, a neuromuscular massage therapist, recognized the need for a high-end line of topical massage products that not only enhance glide during application but also deliver essential vitamins and minerals that absorb into the skin, blending the benefits of massage therapy with comprehensive skin care.

Together with co-founder Matthew, a consumer product developer, they identified the prevalence of cheap, low-quality oils and synthetic chemical fillers in existing market products: products that only lubricated the skin, left residue that required washing off, and stained garments and fabrics. They set out to optimize topical cannabinoid delivery through an organic approach to transdermal application, yielding noticeable results.

To get there, they forged supplier relationships with U.S.-grown and extracted manufacturers of chemically pure, isolated CBD and CBG cannabinoids that are THC-free, and created a moringa oil-based topical line with three tenets at the forefront: pure, effective, and affordable.

Built on moringa oil

Moringa oil is extracted by cold pressing the seeds of the Moringa oleifera tree, a fast-growing tropical and subtropical plant often called the “miracle tree” for its rapid growth, versatility in challenging climates, and nutrient-dense composition. Its uses span fighting malnutrition as a nutritional supplement to cosmetics. The oil is edible and contains a high concentration of oleic acids, behenic acid (Ben Oil), vitamins C and E, antioxidants, and flavonoids, which help stabilize collagen and repair damaged skin cells by inhibiting the effects of free radicals.

Due to its phytonutrients, moringa oil is fully absorbed by the skin, delivering vital nutrients to the body. And in cosmetics, one more key point: the oil does not leave stains. This deep human history of moringa oil use, and its wealth of benefits, forms the foundation of our company.
