Crystal healing is a system of alternative medicine that uses crystals. Practitioners choose their crystals by their metaphysical properties, as well as colour. It is believed that each crystal has its distinctive properties that can help assist in healing physical, emotional, mental and spiritual issues, balancing up all layers of being.
There are two main methods of using crystals. One involves placing certain crystals at the chakra points (energetical centres) on the body. Another method implies placing crystals around the body to create the ‘energy grid’ that is aimed at surrounding the client with healing energy.
