Gemstone And Crystal Therapy
Gemstone therapy is a new-age alternative healing method that has its roots in both in the Hindu religion and medieval medical practices.
In the 13th and 14th centuries, gemstone elixirs were made from water and powdered gemstones and prescribed for a variety of ailments to nobility . After losing their popularity in the later centuries, they were reborn in the new age movements of the 1960s and 1970s.
Gemstone and Crystal Therapy is an alternative healing technique used for strengthening the body, mind and spirit; and it is reported to help resolve personal issues and patterns using various forms of natural gemstones and crystals. The theory is that gemstones carry vibrational rates. By placing these vibrational rates within the aura - your aura's vibrational rates also change. Often the effects are indirect, but very potent. Other times, the effects are very direct and repeatable. Many stones work differently on different people.
The easiest way to do gemstone and crystal therapy is to wear good quality beads around the neck. Metal may inhibit the process, so buy jewellery that doesn't have the gemstones encased in metal as its affects are often reduced, and perhaps eliminated.

Some gemstones were originally worn for their decorative style but have been found to bring a peace of mind to the wearer, and sometimes even peace of body pain. Gemstones are guides that focus energies and help individuals get in touch with the universal forces that surround them. But they are not the forces themselves, merely the reflection of energies that are already present and are amplified and tuned for a person's use, not misuse.
Crystal healing is the use of crystals to bring about healing and positive changes in the mind and body.

Many gemstone therapy practitioners prefer using the Chakra method of therapy. They believe that by aligning specific stones with the seven chakra centers of the body and bringing the centers into balance, health is promoted. The seven centers are:
- The Root Chakra, represented by the Obsidian stone, is located at the base of the spine.
- The lower abdomen chakra, represented by the stone Carnelian, is just below the navel.
- The solar plexus chakra, represented by the stone Citrine, is just below the breastbone.
- The heart chakra, represented by the stone Peridot, is in the center of the chest.
- The throat chakra, represented by the stone Aquamarine, is at the base of the throat.
- The third eye chakra, represented by the stone Lapis lazuli, is centered above the eyebrows.
- The crown chakra, represented by the stone Amethyst, is at the crown of the head.
Many different alternative healing disciplines include chakra therapy in their practice. These include Reiki healers and yoga practitioners; it is also used by many people as a focus for mediation.
The misuse of gemstones can have consequences as well. Much folklore speaks of good luck and bad. With crystals, however, there is no such thing as a lucky or unlucky stone. Gemstones are believed to affect the etheric web that lies just outside the field of vision. Human bodies are surrounded by an electromagnetic field that is sometimes visible in special pictures known as Kirlian photographs. This field is often charged with electricity. Gemstones also have their fields of electricity that, when worn on the body or carried in close proximity to a person, will affect the body of the person as well. Chakras are the seven main energy centers of the body according to eastern medicine. They are in the center of the body, starting at the base of the spine and running up the top of the head.

This is my personal belief on how high quality gemstones work for me. There is no documented proof that gemstone therapy works. Most medical professionals see little harm in the practice as long as the user continues to follow approved medical treatments for their illness and as long as the gemstones are not ingested.
