Raindrop Technique is conducted in silence. Undistracted by sound and talking, the recipient is able to sink into a deep state of relaxation and self-connection. In this receptive state, inner “shifts” may more easily take place, and inner fears and emotional demons may be gently faced.

There are four steps to Raindrop Technique. The first step is very simple, and is an Energy Balancing step. The Young Living Essential Oils' blend of Valor is applied on the feet, and the feet are held. This step may take 10 or 15 minutes. Valor helps to balance the electrical energies in the body and the aura, promoting a deep state of relaxation.

Raindrop Technique then uses Vitaflex Technique, the Ancient Tibetan form of reflexology, in conjunction with various Young Living essential oils. Vitaflex technique originated in Tibet thousands of years ago, long before acupuncture was developed.

Unlike reflexology, Vitaflex Technique is designed to send an electrical pulse along the nerve pathways of the body. This pulse reaches areas of the body where there is a break in the electrical circuit caused by toxins, damaged tissues or loss of oxygen, releasing tension, congestion and imbalances.

This step involves a distinctive movement of the hands and fingers, and continues to promote a deep state of relaxation as the essential oils combine with the electrical pulses to uplift the body and mind.

The third step of Raindrop Technique is where it derives its name. The recipient is positioned face down, and essential oils are dropped onto the back and spine from a height of six inches (15cm) or more. This means that the oils are interacting with the aura even before they contact the physical body, producing an intensified effect. The oils are then massaged into the back using a variety of modern massage techniques and Vitaflex moves.

The fourth step is the application of a moist compress to the back, in order to further activate the oils.

The Young Living essential oils used most commonly in the technique are Oregano, Thyme, Basil, Cypress, Wintergreen or Birch, Marjoram and Peppermint. However, other oils may be added or substituted as appropriate and as needed, including oils for empowering emotions and promoting inner strength.

Because of the importance of using only the highest quality essential oils and the correct chemotypes, Raindrop Technique is taught and performed with Young Living essential oils. Please do not attempt Raindrop Technique without appropriate training, or with any other brand of essential oils.
