Crystals jewelries are among the most elegant, charming and timeless jewelries. But not only are they beautiful, crystals are known to have healing powers too. There are experts who believed that crystals could help in the process of Spiritual healing.
Earliest mention of the healing abilities of crystals can be traced to an influential physicist name Edgar Cayce. Although, there are historical accounts mentioning the use of crystals to heal illnesses in ancient Egypt. The Indian Ayurvedic medicine tradition also uses crystals for healing and treatment. They are even used in the Chinese traditional medicine.
Different crystals have different healing abilities. When crystals are placed in points where the energy is carried out, called chakras, they are believed to have healing effects. They rejuvenate the system and allow the individual to achieve better health and well-being.
Effective crystal healing has three important steps. The first one is the cleansing process. The crystals during this process would try to remove the energy blockages that can be the main cause of the illness. The crystal needs to be in contact with the person who is having the healing process during this time. Every week, the healing crystals need to be placed in direct sunlight. This would cleanse and at the same recharge the crystal’s energy.
The second step would be the harmonizing and integrating process. The changes made in the first step are included in your whole physical, emotional and mental being. There could be some changes on the physical and emotional aspect of the person. Why? Because the toxins are being flushed out of the body.
Stability is the third step. In this step, the changes are accepted by the body and the body slowly becomes stable because of this change. Stabilized body would mean that your body can survive the harsh surroundings and pressure even without your healing crystals. But still, the stabilized stage would wear off and you would need to put on your healing crystals to get back on your feet again.

Do Healing Stones Really Work?
Stones that heal is not a new concept. The art of healing by the use of stones or crystals has been around for ages. Does that mean it really works. Not necessarily, although there is some evidence to suggest it can have a healing effect if used correctly. That could be the key, used correctly and maybe that is where the secret lies. Many cultures have used healing stones over the centuries so maybe there is some truth in it. It has been said that stones, rocks, and crystals all have metaphysical healing properties. These healing properties have been used as a powerful alternative to traditional forms of medicine and healing.
Metaphysical healing is a term bandied about here and even associations with magic and the occult. Maybe that is why some people are wary of the whole thing and stay well clear. I mean if the occult and magic is your thing go for it but there are many who would prefer to stay well away. So how does it all work. Apparently there are many trigger points throughout our body as many different sciences will attest to. Everything from acupuncture to various forms of massage use these points to produce a healing effect. Stones are used in conjunction with these trigger points to produce the desired effect.
Even the Romans used stones in conjunction with their hot baths to heal muscle aches and joint pains. The therapy of hot and cold is a proven treatment and is why you should jump in a cool bath or shower straight out of a sauna. Do this several times and the opening and closing of your pores will do wonders. That is why you are likely to see a naked Scandinavian run from a sauna and roll in the snow.
You can rub stones on your tummy to aid digestion or just walk about rolling a couple of stones in your hand to aid circulation and reduce stress. Abalone shell is good for muscle protection and digestion while amber has electromagnetic properties which is good for asthma and allergies. Many stones are said to have cleansing properties and can bring about physical, mental, and emotional healing.
There is basically a stone for every ailment and if you are that way inclined you will be able to find a book that lists all the properties of all the stones. Crystals too are used in the same way and have various types of healing characteristics. The very beauty of crystals means that they are now made in to all forms of jewelry. That way you can have the healing crystal of your choice that you can wear as a piece of jewelry. That way your healing power is with you always and is not obvious to all and sundry.

There are many crystal stores that have sprung up to cater for the growing swing to crystal and stone healing. But you don’t have to have a piece of crystal to heal something. If it looks pretty you can have it either to wear or to decorate your home and promote in you a sense of well being.
