CRYSTAL THERAPY

What is crystal therapy

Quartz crystals are a natural product formed by movements in the earth's crust. Silica in a molten state is moved toward the earth's surface. When it rises and cools, it changes structure, forming crystals on surrounding granite or sandstone cavities. The molecular structure of quartz crystal involves a perfect alignment and symmetry and imports unusual physical properties. Crystals can receive, amplify, convert, and focus energy, or store an electrical charge. If an electric current is passed through crystal it vibrates. If rubbed, a crystal generates an electrical current. Such properties have made crystals essential components of many modern devices, such as phonograph needles, watches, and microcomputers. Lasers use quartz crystal to convert electrical current into light and focus it as a beam of great intensity.

Crystal Therapy works by re-balancing the flow of life force in the body and energy field. When we are out of balance either physically, mentally or emotionally, this indicates a disturbance in the natural flow. As crystals have an atomic structure like our own they help to restructure the building blocks of our body. For healing to occur it is vital that the energy field is open and flowing. Crystals provide holistic healing and bring about increased vitality and well-being.

A session in crystal therapy involves lying on a treatment bed or sofa fully clothed. Crystals are placed on and around the body. Sessions are 60 or 90 minutes.
