Raindrop Technique® is a soothing healing technique that uses pure Young Living  essential oils.  Raindrop Technique® combines aromatherapy, reflexology, massage and  moist heat to create healing and cleansing through structural and electrical  alignment of the body. The purpose of the treatment is to bring about complete  relaxation, harmony, and wellness to the mental, physical, and emotional  body.

Raindrop Technique® was created by Gary Young. Gary Young has researched  aromatherapy and herbal medicine for over 20 years. He credits the creation of Raindrop Technique® to the Native American Lakotas, the Hunza people of the  Himalayan Mountains, and the people of Inner Mongolia for his inspiration. The  philosophy behind Raindrop Technique® is that the use of specific antimicrobial  oils applied in a particular sequence followed by massage and reflexology  techniques will reduce the inflammation in the body and destroy any viral  presence. A hot compress is then applied to facilitate absorption of the oils  and to relax the muscles. The oils penetrate the soft tissue within 20 minutes.  Its soothing effects are incredibly relaxing. Even though the original theory  behind Raindrop Technique® is to heal problems of the spine, modifications can be  incorporated into the therapy to treat other conditions.

The Health Benefits Raindrop Technique®:

1. Pain Relief: In a study published in the August 2000 issue of the Journal  of the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners, 60 fibromyalgia patients were  surveyed. Aromatherapy, heat and massage were rated most effective.

2. Reduction of Inflammation: Several studies have identified many essential  oils as being powerful anti-inflammatory agents. Thyme, wintergreen, and  peppermint are three anti-inflammatory oils used during a Raindrop session. For  example, wintergreen essential oil contains a high content of natural methyl  salicylate which is shown to inhibit inflammation.

3. Improvement of Circulation: A 2004 Russian study tested 100 patients with  known brain circulation problems and found that massaging the back of the neck  resulted in a significant improvement of cerebral circulation and functional  state of the brain.

4. Improvement of Immune System Function: A major study published in 1995 at  the University of Miami School of Medicine evaluated the effects of massage on  HIV positive men, and concluded that massage was associated with improvement in  several measures of immune function relevant to cytotoxic capacity.

5. Release of Repressed Negative Emotions: Bessel A. Van Der Kolk, MD of  Harvard Medical School stated that severe emotional stresses can produce  subconscious neuroses which are essentially physioneurosis, stored in the  amygdala. Inhalation of essential oils can help activate and release  subconscious emotional stress.

The benefits of the Raindrop Technique® can help improve every aspect of  health for better quality of life, physically, mentally, and emotionally. A  variety of chronic pain issues may be relieved with one Raindrop Technique® treatment.
