How Does Raindrop Therapy Work?
The oils are dispensed one drop at a time from the height of 6 inches above the back of the client. This is where the name Raindrop Technique came from. You will receive this anointing while relaxing face down on the massage table. The intention we set for the session is for your highest potential of healing. Raindrop Technique is not a cure or a magic bullet. It is an amazing tool to help restore balance in the body
VitaFlex Technique
Vita Flex Technique means “vitality through the reflexes” It is a specialized form of hand and food massage that is effective in delivering the benefits of the essential oils throughout the body. Stanley Burroughs perfected the technique by expanding on the information that originated in Tibet thousands of years ago. In the 1960’s this technique became popular before acupuncture was popular in Western Medicine.
Vita Flex is based on the complete network of reflex points that stimulate all the body systems. Essential oils are applied to spinal contact points on the receiver’s feet, and energy is released through electrical impulses created by the contact between the fingertips of the practitioner and the reflex points of the receiver. This acupressure type of technique uses a rolling motion along the inside arch of the foot. You can learn more about the reflex points on the foot by reading about Reflexology.
