Most people naturally associate complementary and alternative medicine with practises like acupuncture, aromatherapy, and homoeopathy, but crystals (sometimes known as crystal healing) also fall under this category, as you may be aware.

Healing crystals are stunning to look at, come in a variety of sizes, shapes, finishes, and gemstones, and are utilised by people for a wide range of purposes.

What Are Healing Crystals?

Crystals are stones with unique atomic arrangements or arrangements that affect electrical charge, light refraction, and other physical properties. These characteristics are enhanced by crystal healing, along with how they might impact the vibration, electrical charge, and operation of the human body.

How Do Healing Crystals Work?

Crystal healing is thought to have an impact on a person either through vibration or mentality.

Vibrational Medicine

The phrase "vibrational medicine" was first used by IBM researcher Marcel Vogel in the 1970s to describe the idea that crystal therapy modifies the body's molecules' vibration to match the vibrational energy of the crystal being utilised. According to Dr. Kim, crystals can speed up the body's natural healing process since they vibrate at a tone comparable to that of people. This is because crystals have a wavelength similar to that of the human body.

Alexandra Trevisan, a holistic chiropractor in Los Angeles, continues, "As humans, we have the capacity to function within this energy spectrum, either ascending or lowering. Think of the scale as having love and enthusiasm at the top and dread and hate at the bottom. Healing gemstones often repel energy from the low end of the energetic spectrum (anger, envy, and/or despair) or hold one or more of the frequencies at the high end (love, clarity, and/or hope).

Mindset

It may be much more effective to use crystal healing to harness the power of the mind. For a very long time, poets and religious figures have viewed gemstones as symbols of perfection, purity, joy, and faith. They found inspiration, tenacity, and ingenuity in gemstones.

Researchers concur that thinking significantly affects health and recovery. The intention-based approach of crystal healing, similar to that fostered in mindfulness meditation, is beleived by practitioners to support immunity, attention, emotional processing, stress reduction, and nervous system regulation.

How to You Use Healing Crystals?

Healing crystals can be used in a variety of ways, including meditation, adornment, and more.

Meditation

When the mind wanders during meditation, focusing on a crystal that symbolises a mantra, emotion, or intention might help you get back on track. They work as a grounding tool on a more practical level.

Wearing

For the best results from the vibrational healing idea, many crystal healers advise wearing crystals on your skin or in your clothing, For instance apply crystals on a chakra, or energy area while you are working with them.

Decor

It is advised to incorporate crystals into your interior design. This helps in purifying the area and also attract postitve vibrations while repelling the negative ones.

Spa Treatments and Wellness

Crystals are frequently used by health practitioners in chiropractic adjustments, massages, and even facials.

Crystal Therapy

Crystals magnify both their own energy and the divine universal energy, also known as spirit, chi, qi, prana, light and love, and Reiki. It is beleived that crystals are alive and are transmitting fascinating and healing messages to all of us. When you go shopping for crystals, you might find that some of them were crafted by humans while others were naturally produced by the earth.

It can be tempting to purchase man-made stones for a price that seems to be a great deal because they are often less expensive. However, take some time to examine their energy before you buy. After handling a natural stone, contrast how holding a man-made stone makes you feel. The natural stone will probably give off more of a warm, loving aura. Moldavite and other naturally occurring stones are treasures from heaven's cosmic treasure chest and are the history, love, and wisdom of mother Earth. Additionally, synthetics may be employed in crystal therapy.

As you practise crystal therapy, remember that your purpose determines the outcome, and stones will help you achieve your goals since they amplify energy.
