Raindrop Technique

Raindrop Technique is a method of applying oils to the feet and back. It has tremendous benefits. Developed by Gary Young initially to help with scoliosis. However, it works so well in supporting the entire body including the emotional and spiritual systems that Raindrop Technique is now used to help in a wide array of issues and to support our general health.

Raindrop Technique also incorporates Vitaflex technique and the power of essential oils in bringing the body into structural and electrical alignment. The term, “Vitaflex”, means “Vitality through the Reflexes” and was coined by Stanley Burroughs, who brought this ancient Tibetan healing method to the West around 1920s. Vitaflex utilizes the piezoelectric property of the human skin, that is, when even a slight pressure is applied to the body surface, a voltage is generated and electric charges move accordingly. It involves the gentle pressing and rolling of the fingertips at specific Vitaflex points. The currants so generated are thought to be of therapeutic value.

Raindrop Technique is consistent with the French model for aromatherapy. It uses a sequence of essential oils that are immune enhancing, supporting the body’s natural defenses, as well as the circulatory, respiratory, endocrine, digestive, nervous, and other body systems.

There are numerous benefits of Raindrop Technique, some of which are listed below. The benefits from Raindrop Technique may not all be apparent immediately following the session. Adjustments can continue for the next few days.
