Crystal Therapy
Quartz crystals are used in watches and clocks as the quartz stores energy from the battery and releases it as such a precise rate that is how it keeps perfect time,it is the same with therapy smokey quartz draws away stagnant energy and clear quartz brings in positive energy.
Crystal therapy has been used for centuries to help treat the body holistically for various ailments and the use of these beautiful minerals dates back to Egyptian times when they were said to be used to purge ‘evil spirits.’
These days, thanks to celebrities such as Victoria Beckham, Ella Woodward, Madonna and Katy Perry promoting the benefits, crystal therapy has shrugged off its ‘hippy’ image and has gained a much bigger following from those looking to heal their body naturally and ensure all round wellbeing.
The belief behind crystal therapy is that individual stones such as amethyst, rose quartz and jade have the ability to communicate with the energy flow of the human body and help to realign the energy channels that are interrupting the natural flow of the body and help it heal itself. Crystals with specific properties are said to help to relieve specific ailments such as anxiety, depression and insomnia, or more physical ailments such as digestive problems.
Crystal therapy can be as simple as wearing precious stones and minerals as bracelets and necklaces, placing crystals in the room where you work and sleep or being treated by a crystal therapist, who can identify which stones can work to stimulate the seven chakras, or ‘energy points’ around the body.
The electromagnetic charge within each stone is said to offer healing vibrations as they work to remove blockages around the body and restore a natural flow of energy.
