Raindrop Therapy
Raindrop therapy is a technique the amazing power of essential oils, mixed with a variety of massage techniques including back massage, vita flex massage and heat application. The technique is designed to bring the body back into structural and electrical alignment. Often many types of spinal problems and misalignments are caused by toxins that lie dormant within the spine. The use of essential oils helps to dispose of these viruses within the spine, helping its structure return to normal.
Raindrop therapy can be used as a tool to provide a healthy balance to the
body. Essential oils also stimulate the nerves and the re-growth of tissue.
Essential oils are the life “blood” of plants. They can have
healing effects on the body, especially the ones that are specifically chosen
for this technique. When applied to the body, the oils are absorbed into
the skin and travel down through the dermis levels into the interstitial
fluids. They are helpful in fighting bacteria and viruses that travel through
the body. Essential oils have also been known to improve the immune system.
During the raindrop therapy, the patient lies on their stomach on a massage
table with their back exposed. The oils are dropped onto the patient’s
body from approximately six inches above the spine. This technique is used
so that there is no interference by the therapist between the initial reaction
of the oils energy and the patient’s energy. The process uses a total
of seven essential oils and two blends of other therapeutic oils that are
the choice of the patient. The essential oils used are Oregano (battles
viruses), Thyme (anti-viral), Birch (bone repair), Basil (muscle relaxant),
Peppermint (topical analgesic), Valor (for spinal alignment and muscle
problems), and Marjoram (anti-spasmodic).
Once the oils are dropped onto the body, the therapist applies a massage technique called vita flex which enhances the benefits of the essential oils. This massage technique means “vitality through the reflexes,” and it involves a rolling and releasing motion of the fingertips to massage the reflex points of the body. Once this happens, the reflex points release an electrical charge through the body that travels along the nerve pathway until it meets a break in the path caused by damage or toxins. This massage technique is used on the feet and along the spine for nerve stimulation and to respond to the oils.
Afterwards, a hot compress is placed on the back. This helps the oils to
continue to release their healing properties. The heat compress is left
on the body for five to 20 minutes. The entire process takes about 50
minutes to complete, and the oils will continue to benefit the body for
up to a week after the procedure.
Raindrop therapy can have many benefits since it is a detoxifying process.
It helps rid of any toxins or bacteria that are deep within the body
and provides a boost to the immune system. It is used to help realign
the spine, reduces stress, and relieves back pain and tension. The technique
is highly relaxing and it is recommended that you take the rest of the
day off after the massage just to relax your body and slowly ease it
back into your daily life. Also, for people with sensitive skin the oils
may cause some reddening or excessive warming of the skin, but this can
be relieved quickly and the benefits of raindrop therapy will be well
worth it.
