Crystal healing is an alternative medicine technique that employs stones and crystals as healing tools. The practitioner places crystals on different parts of the body, often corresponding to the chakras, or places crystals around the body in an attempt to construct an energy grid, which is believed to surround the client with healing energy.
The healing removes blockages in the aura or the body's electromagnetic field. When the stones are placed in the area of the chakras, the colour of the stones may correspond to the colour which is associated with the corresponding chakra. Going from the tail bone to the top of the head, the colours are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Different stones have different healing vibrations, so a treatment based on the type of stone may be used instead.
Stones may also be used at the feet in an attempt at grounding the individual, or held in the hands. Practitioners may also use tools such as crystal wands, which are placed near the receiver's body, or near a certain 'blocked' chakra, or used to perform psychic surgery, normally conducted with laser quartz wands.
Crystal healers may carry crystals around with them, so that the crystals can impart healing powers to them wherever they go, or that they have positive vibrations that attract positive events and interactions with others.
Please remember that this treatment is not an alternative for your medical practioner but an aid to compliment the treatment already being received from you practitioner.
