- All About Raindrop Technique
by Christa McCourt

I've been practicing Raindrop Technique (RT) since 2001 and it always amazes me how much better I feel and others feel after receiving a treatment. The essential oils used in RT are very powerful, more so than we can ever imagine!

The essential oils used in RT are only Young Living's essential oils. I do not use nor recommend any other essential oils for this technique. If you receive/give RT with oils other than Young Living's, it's not Raindrop Technique.

ANYONE can learn how to perform RT. You don't have to be in the health industry to be able to give a RT session. If you have a desire to assist people in their healing process you can learn this technique.

What is Raindrop Technique (RT)?

RT is an amazing healing technique using nine therapeutic grade essential oils that are dropped like rain drops along your spine from about 6 inches above your body. The essential oils are worked into your back using light strokes and gentle massage. The essential oils are dispersed throughout your entire body via your nervous system.

The essential oils are also applied along the vita-flex spinal points on your feet. Applying the essential oils on these points on your feet aid in removing toxins released during the RT session.

RT will help to reduce spinal inflammations which can cause pain, illness and vertebral weakness. Studies have validated that RT can help correct spinal curvatures like scoliosis. Check out Dr. David Stewart's book called "A Statistical Validation of Raindrop Technique" to research the validity of RT.

The essential oils used in RT are anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory and easily penetrate your skin. They assist your body in its self healing process on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels.

RT was developed by Gary Young, CEO and founder of Young Living Essential Oils, due to his extensive research with essential oils and study of certain healing techniques of the Lakota Indians in South Dakota.
