What does authentic treatments mean?

I am asked this quite frequently so I decided to share the awnser with all of you. When a therapist advertises a service or therapy and calls it by a specific name , he or she is claiming to have knowledge of or be certified in this modality. Sometimes specific products are involved also. Two good examples of this are LaStone therapy and Raindrop therapy.

The creator and originator of hot stone massage teaches the method and it is formally called lastone. Only a certified practicioner is allowed to use this trademarked name. This is how you ,the client can identify the real thing from someone who has never had any formal training . The possibility exist that you can get burned from the stones or receive a terrible or mediocre hot stone massage. A person who is advertising this service by name will have a certificate and you are certainly entitled to ask to see proof .

Raindrop is both a treatment done in a specific manner and the authentic treatment uses only Young Living essential oils to perform the real thing.

Unfortunately it is common for spa’s to offer a service and hire staff who have no training or to substitute cheap products. The best way to avoid a poor service or an unsafe one is to ask to see the credientials of the person who will be doing your treatment. Most of us hang our training certificates on the wall to provide you with the assurance that you will be getting what you paid for!!!!
