Check with your CARE Instructor as these may be available for loan or purchase at the seminar.

BOOKSTORE

Texts and videos required for CCIs, including those mentioned above, may be available for sale at the seminar. Check with your CARE Instructor for more details. You may also purchase these and other books from www.raindroptraining.com.

PREPARATION

It is a good idea to purchase the CARE DVDs/Videos on Raindrop and Vitaflex to review ahead of class in preparation for the hands-on training. Your fingernails must also be very short and filed smooth on the edges and corners. Clippers and files will be available in class. With long nails you will not be able to do all of the Vitaflex and Raindrop techniques. If you cannot perform all of the techniques taught in Raindrop Technique or VitaFlex because of long nails, you will not receive credit for those two classes. (This is not an acupuncture event 🙂 )
