Raindrop on young child with Scoliosis

Testimony of Raindrop Technique Oils on a Young Child with Severe Scoliosis
I’ve posted a few articles on my blog on the advantages of Raindrop Technique but I wanted to share something about Raindrop on a more personal level.
I have a niece, now almost 7; she had a traumatic birth and developed some complications.  They ran a myriad of tests (MS, Downs, etc.), none of them came back “positive,” but eventually they diagnosed her with neuromuscular issues.  Because of the neuromuscular issues, she began to develop scoliosis (I think before the age of 2 if I remember correctly) and it got progressively worse as time went on.  She was taken to several doctors, they began doing physical therapy with her, etc., got a brace for her legs and her back, which were both uncomfortable for a 2 year old to wear, or for her to even understand why she needed to wear them.
When she was almost 5 the Lord led me to Young Living Essential Oils, through Sharnael Wolverton’s website, www.Swiftfire.org .  I had learned that Young Living’s essential oils had therapeutic benefits but I didn’t know about the Raindrop Technique until I started doing more research.
About this same time the doctors told my sister that her daughter had a 55% curve and were advising that she have surgery to put rods along her spine, which would need to be repeated as she grew.  This was not an option that my sister wanted to consider – for many, many reasons – and she started doing some research.
Once I found out about the Raindrop Technique I told my sister about the oils and suggested she come to visit me for a while, bring my nieces, and I would also talk to my chiropractor about seeing my niece as a patient.  As a chiropractor, he knew he could help her scoliosis but he was clear with me that scoliosis needed to be treated long term, quite intensely at first, then very regularly for the rest of their life.  He understood my sister’s situation and was willing to see my niece as a patient and suggested that she come visit for at least 6 weeks, longer if possible.  My sister worked it out for them to visit for just over 6 weeks and I set up the appointments.
I also ordered my first Raindrop Technique kit.
Chiropractic Care and Essential Oils-Raindrop
As soon as the Raindrop kit arrived I opened it up and watched the full-length DVD that comes with it of Dr. D. Gary Young demonstrating the Raindrop Technique in a classroom setting.  He goes through every step, describing what he is doing, what oils he is using, the many benefits of each oil, and why it was chosen to be in the kit.  I realized that anyone who wanted to do a Raindrop treatment on a family member or friend would be able to just “follow along” with the DVD.
After my sister and her daughters arrived, we waited until after her initial consultation with the chiropractor, then we began to do Raindrop treatments on my niece twice a week.  The chiropractor wanted to see her twice a week also, so the process began.  Valor was applied on her spine every morning, and her feet using Vita-Flex.  She also got a massage every evening with Ortho Ease Massage Oil.
My sister had several sets of x-rays of my niece prior to chiropractic treatment, and then the chiropractor took a few more at the end of 6 weeks.  Here are the x-rays of “before” and “after” treatment.  The x-rays are not digital, they are the film type so these are actually photographs taken of the x-rays on the light board so they have a bit of a glare on them.  The “before” x-ray is a lot clearer than the “after” because of the glare, so I drew a line off to the side of her spinal curve in the “after” x-ray to show the progress after 6 weeks of treatments.  She also grew 1 ½ inches during the 6 weeks due to her curve straightening out.

There are no chiropractors convenient to where my sister lives, but she continues to give her daughter regular Raindrop treatments, at least weekly, sometimes twice a week if her schedule permits.  Each treatment takes about 45 minutes to an hour, and within about 6 months of the combined chiropractic and Raindrop treatments, my niece no longer needs to wear a lift in one of her shoes – her hips had been uneven because of the curve in her lower back, so the Raindrop Technique treatments continue the healing process of the scoliosis, even without the chiropractic adjustments.  Combining the two modalities of treatment would allow the correction to happen more quickly, but that isn’t an option for my niece right now.
I am not a doctor, and I am not diagnosing, advising or offering a cure.  This article is written with the intent to share our story.  Please consult with your health care provider, seek out a reputable chiropractor, and discover for yourself that there is relief for scoliosis.
I’m writing this article to encourage you, or anyone you may know with scoliosis or any other form of back injury, that Raindrop is very effective in bringing about healing, and it is something that you can do at home.  In this day and time of increased health care costs isn’t it wonderful to know there are alternatives out there?
