Many cultures dating back to the Egyptians, Myans, & Aztecs have always had a fascination of crystals and used them often, for many reasons. Healing-wise, each crystal has it’s own properties that can help heal in a wide range of areas; from emotional pain, to modern-day illnesses, to Chakra Balancing. In a Crystal Healing, crystals are placed on and around the body in specific spots to promote healing on many levels.
There is scientific support and evidence that crystals have their own specific 'vibrations' which react to our own energy fields. Crystal Healing/Therapy focuses on using the vibrations of a certain crystal to help our bodies resonate more with that crystal and ultimatley, healing many problems. This healing technique works very well by itself or with other modalities, such as Reiki and sound healing.
A Crystal Healing is very powerful, especially when combined with Reiki. All of your Chakras are balanced, your Aura is cleared, and your energy bodies are brought back into harmony. During the treatment you may feel the crystals vibrate a little, heat up, become cold, get heavier or lighter; all signs that the crystals are doing their job, assisting you in healing.
