Raindrop Aromatherapy

WHAT IS RAINDROP AROMATHERAPY?

Raindrop Aromatherapy is a blissful and relaxing technique. It was developed in the 1970's
with Lakota origins. The intent is to bring the body into structural and electrical alignment.
Only Therapeutic grade Essential oils are used, never perfume/ fragrance grade oils.
Raindrop is based on the theory that some dis-eases of the body are caused by bacteria and
viruses that lie dormant alone the spine causing symptoms and pain.

Research from Weber State University, as well as other documented research, indicates
that most viruses, fungi and bacteria cannot live in the presence of many essential oils.

A Raindrop Session at Healthy Spirits is a non-secular art and science incorporating
Healing Touch from a Judeo-Christian perspective. You begin your session relaxing in a
comfortable room with low-level lighting. Oils are applied to the feet first, using Vita Flex
(a light touch using the pads and nails of the fingers in a rolling motion). Oils are then
dropped along the spine and feathered in using a Native American technique, called nerve
brushing, which stimulates the nervous system. The session is ended with moist heat, Healing
Touch and EFT(Emotional Freedom Technique) as needed.

The Raindrop Technique combines the science of aromatherapy with the techniques of Vita
Flex, Healing Touch, EFT and the application of essential oils, which are applied on various
areas of the body to bring unity of the body, mind and spirit. It is designed to bring balance
to the body with its relaxing, mild application. It will also help to align and clear the energy
centers of the body without using force or excessive pressure. When you combine the
electrical frequency of the Essential oils and the intelligent design of the body, a Divine
Self-healing process can begin.

Raindrop Technique is a complete modality that addresses all levels of the body, mind and
emotions. It is a gentle technique that is the complete antithesis of some massage
techniques. There is no deep tissue work, no strenuous manipulation. Michelle's RDT
sessions use a blend of the modalities and techniques she has learned to personally tailor
her sessions to her clients needs. If you are stressed, knotted with tension or experiencing
back problems or pain, you owe it to yourself to try a Raindrop Aromatherapy session from Healthy Spirits!
