What is the treatment?
Crystal healing is an alternative therapy that uses the vibrational energy of crystals and gemstones to balance the body's energy field, promote healing, and restore harmony to the mind, body, and spirit. Crystals are placed on or around the body to influence physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
Philosophy/Origin
Crystal healing has roots in ancient civilizations, including Egypt, India, and Greece, where crystals were used for protection, healing, and spiritual guidance. The practice is based on the belief that each crystal has unique energy properties that can interact with the body's energy field to enhance health and balance.
