Acupuncture & Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)

TCM is an ancient and comprehensive healthcare system with over 4,000 years of history in treating and preventing disease. TCM incorporates several treatment modalities including Acupuncture, Chinese Herbology, Tui Na (Chinese Medical Massage), Cupping, Moxabustion, Gua Sha, and Life Style Counseling, including Chinese Nutrition and Exercise. TCM can be used to treat many conditions, ranging from sports injuries, gynecological issues, fertility, digestive discomfort, stress and migraines. According to the World Health Organization, acupuncture alone can be used to treat over forty different illnesses.

Many frequently asked questions pertaining to Acupuncture and Chinese Herbology include the following: how many treatments are needed, does it hurt, how do I take the herbs, what type of needles are used, how quickly can I see results, how does acupuncture work, has acupuncture been clinically proven, are Chinese herbs save to take, and can other medical procedures be continued. All of these questions are answered in Jutta's TCM flyer available at Shakti.

Raindrop Technique

Raindrop Technique was created in the 1980’s by D. Gary Young, N.D., based on his research with the Lakota Indians.  This treatment uses Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils to support your body’s systems.  The oils are dropped like drops of rain along the spine from a height of about six inches. The application takes approximately an hour and can continue to work in your system for up to one week following treatment. 

Essential oils applied along the back are absorbed through the nerves that feed the entire body.  Within moments the oils are absorbed through the skin and in a matter of minutes through the cells of the body. Wonderfully soothing, nurturing, and relaxing, Raindrop Technique can work its benefits in immediate and profound ways.  Many clients experience the following: deep relaxation, increased energy, enhanced immunity and detoxification, relief of aches and pains, renewed flexibility, postural alignment, a sense of peacefulness and feelings of well being.

Please shower before your session so the essential oils may stay on as long as possible (ideally overnight).  Wear or bring clothing that is machine washable, as some residual oils may absorb into your clothing after the session.  Plan on drinking 2 or 3 glasses of water after your Raindrop session. The essential oils bring nutrition into your cells and may cause your tissues to release toxins into your blood stream, lymph and skin. The water will facilitate this detoxification process.  Schedule a time for your appointment so you can relax afterwards.
