Follow the technique as outlined on page 18/19

# data[].attributes.body
The goal with the hand technique is to open as much as possible

# data[].attributes.body
Start with 1-2 drops of coconut oil and a few drops of essential oil, spread in the palms and the entire surface of the hand

# data[].attributes.body
You can use whatever oil corresponds to their need (Pain management, emotional support, etc) - Avasa likes Aromatouch :)

# data[].attributes.body
Hand techniques are great for booths or events and unlike the full body treatment, recipients can enjoy the aromatics

# data[].attributes.body
As we age our hands curl and seize up with arthritis; this is an especially powerful technique for the elderly and can restore mobility

# data[].attributes.body
Why learn the hand technique? Because like the feet the palms have a meridian system that connects to the entire body

# data[].attributes.body
Finish by gently rotating their covered feet and then prompt the recipient to awaken. Give them a moment to come back into their body, maybe bring them a glass of water and invite them to take their time coming back to reality :)

# data[].attributes.body
Close the back treatment by holding the sacrum (below the lower back) and the base of the head and hold for a moment to ground their energy.

# data[].attributes.body
It's nice to connect with the entire palm, as opposed to just fingers. Imagine kneading bread :)

# data[].attributes.body
Now close the treatment with Wild Orange and Peppermint on the back - again being aware of Peppermint's cooling properties (1 drop is probably plenty)

# data[].attributes.body
After feet, cover them and return to the back, always maintaining contact with light touch as you move around the body

# data[].attributes.body
Again, Avasa is moving more quickly for the sake of demonstration but feel free to take time. The entire treatment should last about 45 minutes

# data[].attributes.body
If someone has ticklish feet or doesn't want their feet touched, you can substitute hands, as they also hold a meridian system. It is not advised to treat both hands and feet, as it can overload the system

# data[].attributes.body
Note that with feet we can use a little more pressure

# data[].attributes.body
You can add a gentle tug of the toes at the end, although this is not a Dr. Hill sanctioned technique :))

# data[].attributes.body
Start at the top of the heel and press very deliberately and slowly, keeping the finger movements very tight so that you impact the entire surface of the foot

# data[].attributes.body
Feet! Take time, recognizing that these hold a lot of stress for everyone :) The bottoms of our feet hold a map of our entire bodily system and is therefore has incredible healing potential!

# data[].attributes.body
Why fractionated coconut oil? The fats have been taken out and therefore fractionated coconut has smaller molecules. As a carrier oil it is especially effective in supporting absorption of the essential oils

# data[].attributes.body
These are the only oils that are applied together. Apply coconut oil first and then essential oil - wild Orange (1-2 drops) and then Peppermint (1-2 drops; Some people are cold natured and one drop is sufficient!)

# data[].attributes.body
After the Deep Blue application, cover the back and move down to the feet for Wild Orange and Peppermint

# data[].attributes.body
On Guard and Deep Blue are the only phases that use the thumb walk, as they are particularly effective in releasing toxins and bacteria from the spine

# data[].attributes.body
And although light touch may seem ineffective, it activates the oils in such a powerful way that more pressure is not needed! Rainbeau said that she prefers deeper massage but when she received this technique she became a believer and joined doTERRA :)

# data[].attributes.body
Note that running a diffuser is not recommended - it's too much when combined with the oils in the treatment

# data[].attributes.body
You may not need to apply additional coconut oil as you go along, use your discretion

# data[].attributes.body
For the ear technique, keep the finger behind the ear stable, moving behind the ear and the other finger massaging

# data[].attributes.body
Ne aware that light pressure is by design so that we do not create a localized response - too much pressure can activate a particular area and distract from the overall goal

# data[].attributes.body
And be aware of long hair, jewelry or clothing that might swing and touch their body!

# data[].attributes.body
For your own comfort, be aware of your stance and grounding yourself, keeping knees bent and light, taking pressure off your lower back

# data[].attributes.body
Note that Avasa is moving faster than she would in a normal treatment

# data[].attributes.body
When sliding the palms, be mindful of breasts and modesty

# data[].attributes.body
Even when applying oils, maintain connection by keeping one palm on the back

# data[].attributes.body
Keep continuous touch for the remainder of the treatment and follow technique as outlined in the manual

# data[].attributes.body
Stroke in a way that creates an "unending river" of motion - very light and gentle

# data[].attributes.body
Drop Coconut oil along the spine and then follow by dropping 5 drops of Balance

# data[].attributes.body
Center yourself before the treatment in whatever way feels grounding for you - Avasa says a prayer that she may be used as a vehicle for healing <3

# data[].attributes.body
Be mindful of modesty and maintaining comfort for the recipient, but start with back exposed and cover them to the base of their back. Dr. Hill says stop when you see The Great Divide Lol

# data[].attributes.body
*NOT disrupt the treatment :))

# data[].attributes.body
Also have oils set up in a way that they are easily accessible, tops are off and ready to go, oils are arranged in the order in which you will need them, etc. Once you start, you want to maintain continuous touch and disrupt the treatment

# data[].attributes.body
Before we begin: Be aware of cold hands :))

# data[].attributes.body
Note: Dr. Hill is a big advocate of reflexology and suggests taking time and care with this part of the treatment, as it can have profound benefits!

# data[].attributes.body
Page 14/15 Pinpoint activation is staccato pressing

# data[].attributes.body
For the feet we use a sweeping (wax on, wax off!) motion moving up the foot

# data[].attributes.body
Continuing to page 12/ 13: the thumb walk tissue pull uses the thumbs to pull away from the spine

# data[].attributes.body
ACTIVATION

# data[].attributes.body
5 Zone Activation uses a sweeping motion up the mack, around shoulder, ending at the head

# data[].attributes.body
5-ZONE APPLICATION

# data[].attributes.body
Rack the fingers up the spine all the way up to the occipital bone at the base of hte neck

# data[].attributes.body
Start on the left or right of the recipient and begin the treatment according to the instructions on page 10 of the manual

# data[].attributes.body
These are all the phases of a total Aromatouch treatment! (so for an adult, 4-5 drops of each oil in each phase)

# data[].attributes.body
For Re-energizing the system, we use Wild Orange and Peppermint

# data[].attributes.body
And trauma! Aromatouch is very supportive post car accident, for example

# data[].attributes.body
For Pain Management we use Aromatouch and Deep Blue (Aromatouch is also great for adrenal support)

# data[].attributes.body
Our spine can hold mold and bacteria, which causes degeneration (Whaaa?!) so these are very powerful

# data[].attributes.body
The second is Immunity Support, using Melaleuca and On Guard

# data[].attributes.body
The first is relaxation, using Balance and Lavender

# data[].attributes.body
Dr. Hill designed this technique to achieve a variety of results

# data[].attributes.body
It's normal at the end of a treatment for the recipient to be flushed, this is not a cause for concern!

# data[].attributes.body
If this happens, they should cease using the oils topically immediately or they can develop a resistance. The best strategy is to use the Lifelong Vitality Pack, Terrazyme enzymes, and go off of wheat, gluten, sugar, dairy and eggs. Doing this for minimum one week may be enough to reset their body and they can begin using oils topically

# data[].attributes.body
The reaction they're having is actually a detoxifcation but it can present similarly to an allergic reaction

# data[].attributes.body
Note: You can't really have an allergic reaction to a doTERRA oil because there aren't any proteins, However, individuals can have an adverse reaction if they have a particular toxic load in their system

# data[].attributes.body
Essential Oil Usage: Using too many oils can overwhelm the body. Only 4-5 drops per oil for adults, 1-2 drops for youth (less for babies)

# data[].attributes.body
People cannot have an allergic reaction with essencial oils because there is no protein in the oils. However, thre can be a chemical reaction to the essencial oils. The reason for the chemical reaction is because they are going through a detoxification process. Dr. Hill says they have to immediately stop taking the oils. They have to start taking the terra enzymes and if its Candida the probitics and stop esting wheat, gluten and eggs. If heavy metals cilantro essencial oils taken internally.

# data[].attributes.body
Technical note: This is not a  muscular massage technique, it is designed to impact the neurological system and neural pathways

# data[].attributes.body
And never underestimate the healing impact of compassionate touch! Such a special exchange!

# data[].attributes.body
And as practitioners, we also benefit and receive a beautiful aromatherapy session :)

# data[].attributes.body
This can be administered daily for those with chronic illness and can have amazing results for spinal issues!

# data[].attributes.body
Side note: Be aware that this is a powerful treatment and can often lead to deep detoxification, physically and emotionally. A good thing to be aware of and to manage expectations for those receiving the treatment - advise them that they may experience detox-like symptoms afterwards (fatigue, etc)

# data[].attributes.body
It is designed to amplify the healing power of the oils

# data[].attributes.body
Dr. Hil!!!! <3 This technique was created by him

Basically, unless you have a license to touch you can't publicly charge for this service. You can take donations or certainly gift it to people
