Crystals

Crystals are believed by some to have healing properties and can be used as a complementary therapy alongside traditional medicine. The idea is that each type of crystal has a unique vibrational energy that can interact with the energy fields of the human body, promoting balance and wellness.

What is crystal healing?

Crystal healing is an alternative medicine technique that uses crystals and stones to heal. Crystals and stones hold healing properties – dating back thousands of years. There is evidence that many different cultures across the world use crystal healing in their practices.

Crystals are carried, worn or placed on the body, with each crystal holding its own specific energy.

Each crystal has its own specific energy frequency. When it comes into contact with a person’s energy field, the crystal energy influences and intermingles with that energy field, which in turn benefits you with healing properties.

How do they help?
