Essential Oils

RAINDROP SHIATSU
I have incorporated the use of therapeutic grade essential oils since 1998. Essential oils are Jing-essence of plants. Jing-essence for humans is the substance that one is born with that declines with age. It contains the blueprint of who you are. So the essential oils reach the deeper level of human energetics affecting one’s constitution and Shen–spirit. Essential oils applied to acupuncture points can produce more profound results than Shiatsu or acupuncture alone. In the view of western aromatherapy, essential oils increase the oxygen in the blood and cells. Chemical constituents such as sesquiterpenes are known to break blood-brain barriers.

Raindrop Shiatsu is a technique in which essential oils that resonate with the particular meridian system are dropped like raindrops along the spine. There are Shu-transporting points along the spine that stimulate and tonify Ki (Qi) in each organ system. From a western point of view, that is where the highest concentration of nerve receptors resides. The oils are highly antimicrobial and also dissolve the petrochemicals that clog the receptors.

While the oils are doing their job, Zen Shiatsu is performed to enhance further relaxation. Remember, you can only heal yourself when you have turned off “fight or flight” mode.

Raindrop technique portion can be easily done at home. I have taught clients and their friends and spouses.

Essential oils make a great transporter of nutrients since the molecules are so small that they easily penetrate the body cells. There are nutritional supplements and cleansers with essential oils in them. They increase absorption and make the nutrient more bioavailable.

Essential oils make safe personal care products. Toothpaste, deodorant, shampoos, and lotions that do not contain harmful chemicals such as DEA, Sodium Laurel Sulfate, Propylene Glycol are available with the use of essential oils.
