The Raindrop Technique balances the energy body, spiritual body, emotional body and physical body with pure essential oils, Vita-Flex and Efflurage for overall health and well-being.

Raindrop Therapy


The Raindrop Technique was developed by Mr. Gary Young, the founder of Young Living Essential Oils. Mr. Young learned about this type of technique while visiting with the Lakota people in South Dakota. This practice uses effleurage (finger stroking) or feathering with the fingers to affect the muscles and nervous system along the spine as well as a technique called Vita Flex which is stimulating the reflexes on the feet. Using these techniques coupled with the energy and antimicrobial agents in pure essential oils to distribute the healing energy throughout the body its effects where greatly enhanced. Raindrop Technique was formally adopted in 1989.

Raindrop Therapy creates a calming experience where it can help with relaxation, emotional release, tissue cleansing, detoxing, immune support, and help with some spinal misalignment. Since Raindrop Technique is a powerful, non-invasive technique utilizing the antiviral, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory actions of several key essential oils it can be used to assist in strengthening the body.

Raindrop Technique can assist in supporting a strong immune system as well as overall health and wellness. People have found help with improving circulation, Lyme’s disease, inflammation, help curbing digestive issues, ease respiratory discomfort from allergies, colds, flu; help spinal issues as well as many other health issues. Raindrop Technique is helpful when spring gardening or fall clean up creates sore, stiff muscles. It helps to balance the energy and lift the spirit to restore calm.

Raindrop Technique takes between 45-90 minutes per session. A series of 10 essential oils (single oils and blends) are gently dropped along the spine and then feathered into the spinal column and back. A warm wet towel is placed over the back and covered again with a dry towel. This allows the oils to soak deeper into the body. You are covered for 20-30 minutes. This same process may be also done on both feet as well. Because of the pureness of the oils an added benefit is the Aromatherapy you also receive from the oils. Even when the session is completed the oils continue to work within the body up to one week after wards. Since I do not do massage I often will incorporate Reiki into this session, if I intuitively am led to do so.

I use only Young Living Essential oils in Raindrop Technique, as well as in my practice. They are the only oils I trust to be pure, genuine and true to the properties and effectiveness essential oils claim to have. This is because they are the ONLY company that has the SEED TO SEAL process. I wouldn’t trust putting any other oils in my body so I wouldn’t trust putting them in your body either.

I do hold workshops and classes about Young Living Essential Oils from “Essential Oils 101” to using “Essential Oils for Emotional Health”, “How to have a Non-Toxic Home Environment” and many others. Please click on Courses & Workshops.

I believe so strongly in these oils that I became an Independent Distributor for Young Living Essential Oils, member#1214366. If you have interest in learning more about Young Living Essential Oils email or call me.
