The story behind the Propolair Propolis Diffusers - Kontak
It all started in 2014, when I, Yann Loranger, went to Europe with 2 close friends, traveling the south of France, a large part of Spain and a portion of Portugal. It is there, in Lisbon, that we met with the apitherapist Antonio Couto, renowned for mastering bee micro-stinging, a technique based on the precepts of Japanese acupuncture.
It was the first time we heard about the Propolair Propolis Diffusers, that were little known back then in Canada and US. At first glance, this little device appeared nice and simple, nothing more. The diffuser warms the propolis, allowing the active volatile particules to spread and purify the air in a room, office or other 30 m2 space. Nothing really rocket science it seemed, reminding us of burning natural incenses or essential oil diffusers.
However, the more Mr Couto pursued his explanations, the more we understood the advanced scientific side of the device. Indeed, the Italian company "Kontak", at the origin of the "Propolair" products, studied the matter in depth. Rigorous scientific studies led them to the development of this device. The propolis is heated with ideal temperature variations to allow maximum use of the active volatile particles of the propolis. When too heated, propolis becomes toxic. When too little heated, it exalts very little of its therapeutic properties. A fixed temperature is also not optimal. If you consult the studies of "Kontak", you will discover which are the polyphenols diffused in the air according to the cycles of the propolis capsules.
We had never seen such precise studies on the active components of propolis at different stages of use. With research, we understood that these propolis diffusers are unique in their kind and have no equal on the market.
We had left Lisbon filled with all the information that Mr Couto had generously shared with us, in particular on bee micro-stings and the use of several alternative therapies for obtaining improved results in the treatments. The propolis diffusers were already far in our minds as we drove back to the south of France. Yann came to realize : Bees do the same!!! By adding a thin layer of propolis in the hive, the bees create an immense surface covered with propolis, therefore with the heat of the sun, these active volatile particles fill their home. Not only does this layer of propolis cleanse the surface, but these volatile particles fill the air in the hive as soon as the temperature is sufficient, making the bees nest the cleanest of all houses!!!
It is by understanding that the principle of propolis diffusers is 100% inspired by what bees do that we fully adhered to this brilliant device. Propolis is known to protect the hive against invasions of microbes, bacteria, viruses and molds, but very few understand that this is also happens in the air that bees breathe.
It made us see the hives as havens of peace more than ever. Even their air is of incomparable purity. By using propolis diffusers, we can do the same : Make our home a healthy place that contains air that is not only clean, but also healing! While these active volatile particles are able to neutralize a number of bacteria and contaminants, they also have the capacity to help several functions in the respiratory system. It is more than pure air, it is healing air, the mere presence of these particles in the air is enough to understand it. We are therefore able to make our living space a healing space, not only with the design or ambiance, but also through the air we breathe. And all this by following in the footsteps of the bees!
So we started to use Propolis Diffusers in our practice and spread them across Canada. Since then, we have had several extraordinary testimonies. There is no doubt, it is a simple and effective practice which goes exactly in the line of a natural and responsible apitherapy.
