Exploring crystal healing
There is evidence of the practice of crystal healing throughout history and in many cultures including the Chinese and the ancient Egyptians – who, amongst other gems, would bury jade amulets with their dead as they believed that this would help to guide their souls in the afterlife.
These days crystal healing methods vary from one practitioner to another but treatment is often performed in a quiet room where practitioners will arrange what they feel to be appropriate crystals around your body. They may also ask you to hold crystals and will often recommend crystals for use at home. Crystals can be placed around the home, held, or worn as an item of jewellery such as a pendant.
Different crystals are associated with different qualities, for instance; Emerald is believed by many practitioners to improve memory, while Amethyst is said to help those who suffer from nightmares.
The theory behind this practice is that crystals give off an energy that is able to balance the energy found in humans and that certain coloured crystals relate to specific energy centres in the body known as ‘chakras’. As with many alternative therapies crystal healing has been referred to as a ‘pseudoscience’ by many, but others find comfort in crystals that they believe to be more than a placebo effect.
