Raindrop Therapy
 Raindrop Therapy is not a medical treatment, nor is it massage. However, when it is used in conjunction with massage, it creates a wonderfully soothing, nurturing and relaxing experience. The Raindrop Therapy technique is a procedure for applying therapeutic-grade essential oils to the feet, back and spine. It combines aromatherapy and reflexology to create healing, cleansing and balancing. Nine essential oils are used, consisting of two therapeutic blends and seven single oils. A person receiving Raindrop Therapy will lie down on the massage table while the practitioner applies the oils to the bottoms of the feet and onto the back along the spine. The oils are gently massaged in using a feathering technique and long strokes. A hot compress is then applied for about ten minutes to aid in the absorption of the oils. The essential oils continue to penetrate into the body for five to seven days, helping to release toxins, calm the nervous system and boost your immune system. Another aspect of Raindrop Therapy is called "Vita Flex", a therapeutic maneuver adapted from acupuncture, acupressure, and reflexology. Using the Vita Flex maneuver, the essential oils are applied along the spinal reflex points on the feet. The theory of Vita Flex utilizes the fact that the human skin is 'piezoelectric'. This means that when even a slight pressure is applied to the body surface, a voltage is generated, and electric charges move accordingly. The currents so generated are thought to be of therapeutic value. The electrical nature of the Vita Flex maneuver is thought to assist in the body's absorption and utilization of essential oils. We all carry viruses and bacteria, which deplete our immune system. One aid to solving these problems is Raindrop Therapy. The pure high-grade oils used in Raindrop Therapy have been clinically tested to have antiviral, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. They flush out toxins and kill dormant viruses and bacteria along the spine, restoring health to the entire system. A Raindrop Therapy massage is highly recommended for anyone under stress, recovering from a cold or an injury, or experiencing psychological stress or trauma. This therapy is known to stimulate the central nervous system and bringing your whole being into balance. A typical Raindrop Therapy treatment will last about forty minutes. However, most clients choose to incorporate it into a massage so that the entire body treatment lasts longer. Raindrop Therapy is not a cure or quick fix but a very powerful tool to help restore balance to the body that will result in good health.  The oils used in Raindrop Therapy are: |
