Raindrop Therapy Massage
Ranked #14,583 in Healthy Living, #226,406 overall
Origin of Raindrop Therapy
Raindrop was developed by D. Gary Young, founder of Young Living Essential Oils, based on techniques taught to him by a Lakota medicine man named Wallace Black Elk. In Lakota Native American healing practices, healers sweep a feather upwards along the spine in imitation of the Northern Lights, which are revered for their healing energy.
The 9 Essential Oils used in Raindrop
7 single oils and 2 therapeutic blends. A person receiving raindrop lays facedown as oils are dropped up their back from a height of 6-12 inches. The oils are gently massaged in with the Lakota "feathering" motion. After the essential oils have been applied, a towel soaked in hot water may be applied to the back to drive the oils further into the body.
Vitaflex, a foot reflexology technique, is used to apply the same oils to the spine reflexology points at the beginning of the raindrop.
The usual Raindrop oils are:
Valor - a blend that integrates the body's energies and can help align the spine and muscles of the back
Oregano*
Thyme*
Basil*
Wintergreen (originally birch, when pure birch oil was available)
Cypress
Marjoram
Peppermint
Aroma Siez - a blend that helps ease cramping and muscle soreness/pain

The Power of the Oils
Raindrop requires almost no knowledge of, or skill in, massage. Most of the efficacy of the technique is due to the oils. In fact, practitioners are discouraged from using other techniques at the same time as raindrop. It is the profound natural "intelligence" of the oils which can heal where healing is needed.
The oils used in raindrop flush out toxins and kill dormant viruses and bacteria along the spine, restoring health to the entire system.
When it comes to treating back pain - as well as knee pain, tight shoulders, and digestive system discomfort - it can be hard to find something that will bring the body's systems into alignment. One aid to solving these problems and more is Raindrop Treatment, using essential oils that have been clinically tested to have antiviral, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Raindrop has helped bring relief to chronic pain sufferers and has been known to cause visible improvement in scoliosis. It has also been used successfully on horses and other animals.
