Crystal healing is the use of crystals or gemstones placed on or around the body to bring about healing and positive changes in the mind and body.

 

Crystals are nature's gift to man that augment healing. They are found in all shapes, sizes, colors and composition. Each crystal has a unique vibrational resonance. They owe their unique qualities to their mineral content, their inherent geometry and the color frequency they emit.

 

The human body has a complex electromagnetic system, also known as a vibrational energy system. Nature has created crystals to be perfect electromagnetic conductors, capable of interacting with our electromagnetic system. Crystals have been found to carry vibration that activates certain energy centers within our electromagnetic system, thus having a positive effect on our entire body systems.

 

Since the earliest times, crystals have been used to heal and restore balance. They help in releasing and clearing negative energy, thereby assisting in energy healing. The earliest records of crystal healing have been traced in Ancient Egypt. India's Ayurvedic records and traditional Chinese medicine also claim healing with the use of crystals, dating back to 5000 years ago.

 

The use of healing stones to enhance the health and well being of an individual is a form of alternative therapy that is quite popular with people who believe in alternative therapy. Just like any other alternative therapy, crystal healing is said to have positive effects only on people who have strong faith or confidence in the basic principles or concepts of crystal healing. Crystal healing is thus not a medical therapy, which means that the therapy does not actually function on the basis of any stringent medical practices and scientific laws. Crystal healing is based on a belief system and is more of a spiritual healing process than a medical one.

 

Crystal healers (practitioners of crystal healing) believe that every living organism has several charkas (energy centers) that vitalize the physical body and are associated with the interactions of a physical, emotional and mental nature. According to the crystal healing belief system, every living organism is surrounded by electromagnetic fields referred to as auras, subtle bodies and meridians. Crystal healers claim that with the use of right crystals, the energy systems or vibrations of the body can be tuned to improve the health or general well being of an individual. With the energy of the crystals the healers can transfer, focus, direct and diffuse energy within the body of an individual. The healing properties of these crystals depend upon several factors like the color, chemical composition, atomic structure and the overall physical form. Using certain crystal methods, crystal healing can help a number of physical problems. A few examples; clear quartz removing negativity, rose quartz is great for emotional healing, amethyst crystals are good for headaches, malachite for the stomach, lapis for anxiety, and jade for the heart.

 

Crystal therapy aims to restore the balance and well being of a person. In this therapy assorted stones are placed on or around the body that resonate with charkas of the body. This helps to release impending blockages, refining the flow of energy. The recipient is able to experience a deep state of tranquility, letting go of attitudes and habits that are not beneficial, assisting in tuning ourselves to the rhythm of life. Crystals work on the subtle energy levels and in our auras to rebalance energies and improve our well-being. This therapy promotes peace and tranquility and reduces mental and nervous stress.

 

Crystals can also be carried or one can wear them. Crystals must always be cleansed before use as they can carry negative vibrations too. They can be cleansed by running water over them. Alternatively, they can be placed in the sunlight or moonlight. Moonlight is a powerful cleanser. Vibrations of a pure sound like that of a bell or gong can also energetically cleanse a crystal.

 

Although many people claim to benefit from crystal healing, hardcore medical practitioners and scientists claim that this alternative therapy has no scientific evidence.
