Therapies - Crystal Healing

From the time of the earliest ancient civilisations, crystals have been used in ritual and physical healing. The practice of using stones and crystals for aesthetic and therapeutic purposes continues today. How crystals work is not completely understood. There is a belief that they are able to attract, store and amplify energies on the physical and metaphysical plane. That is, the essences of mind, body and spirit. They may act as conductors of life-force, universal will or a practitioner’s intention, allowing a focus of energies for the purposes of rejuvenation, revitalisation and healing. The selection of crystals is dependant on the individual’s particular need. Isis crystals (five edges) can put you in touch with the Goddess essence and restore balance of your female energy. Channelling crystals (seven edges) can be used to seek answers from outside yourself. Grounding crystals (eight edges) can help you deal with the issues of practicality and making a living. There are also crystals from different countries with different properties, and so the list goes on. A crystal healing session involves the application of crystals and stones upon the body within specific energy centres. The vibrational flow that ensues creates impulses which can be understood on many levels of our being. This self-diagnostic system occurs in many other vibrational therapies, notably colour and music based modalities.
