Workshops in Essential Oils/ Aromatherapy
The Raindrop Technique -- Hands-On Aromatherapy Workshop for Spa Professionals (Group)
A hands-on workshop
designed for spa professionals to add three powerful techniques using
therapeutic essential oils to their practice! Essential oils are the steam-distilled
lifeblood of plants. Applied topically, they penetrate the skin and enter
the bloodstream, bringing their antiviral and antibacterial properties
into the system within seconds! They increase oxygen, negative ions, and
ozone. They are antioxidant and stimulate the immune system. Oils enhance
brain wave function, improve spiritual awareness and bring about balance
to the body.
In this hands-on workshop participants will learn:
1. The VaIor Balance
Application of the
blend "Valor" to the soles of the feet -- where to start before
doing any other therapy or service.
The Valor balance:
- Opens the receptivity of the client
- Is extremely relaxing
- Helps the body self-correct electrical and structural balance and alignment. (Is often called, "chiropractor in a bottle.")
- Gives relief of pain
- Instills a feeling of courage, confidence and self-esteem
2. The Vita Flex Technique
A Tibetan reflexology technique that literally means "vitality through the reflexes." Essential oils are applied to contact points on the legs, feet and spine. In distinction to Reflexology, Vita Flex uses a rolling and releasing motion, which is exceptionally effective in delivering the benefits of essential oils throughout the body. Vita Flex repairs breaks in electrical circuits caused by toxins, damaged tissues, or loss of oxygen and may release tension, congestion, and imbalance.
3. The Raindrop Technique
- A powerful application of nine specific essential oils dropped one at a time like raindrops along the spine that:
- Balances every system of the body
- Kills viruses on the length of the spine
- Relieves inflammation and pain
- Soothes the nervous system
- Unwinds tight and sore muscles
- Boosts the immune system
- Balances the structural and electrical systems of the body
- Relaxes, centers and rejuvenates mind, body and spirit.
- A gentle massasge technique with moist heat, allowing the oils to be absorbed and their effects felt. The technique takes about one hour to complete. The oils will continue to have effects for about 5 to 7 days after the treatment.

Destination and day spa owners, managers, spa menu designers, massage
