Quartz Crystal Healing Therapy

The Power of Crystals for Healing

Nov 15, 2009 Brenna Coleman

Throughout the history of medicine, different cultures have used and understood the power of crystals for healing. Today, quartz crystal healing is being rediscovered.

The power of crystals has been studied for the advancement of technology, as quartz crystals are used in a variety of devices from watches to electronics. The concept of using crystals for healing, however, is often perceived as an outdated practice of ancient cultures that did not have access to the modern technology of today, or as a fabricated concept of speculative fiction. Quartz crystal healing therapy is in fact a thriving facet of alternative medicine, with potentially a greater role in modern medicine once more is understood about the potential role of crystals.

The Power of Crystals Examined

In order to understand quartz crystal healing therapy, it is important to understand the innate properties of quartz crystals. Quartz is composed of silicon dioxide. Scientists have found that silicon crystals, especially when fused with other elements, have specialized energy transduction properties. Not only can they be used for electrical and thermal conductivity, but they are extremely precise in their use, making them highly effective tools for energy enhancement and focus.

Structurally, crystals represent perfection. They are made of a mathematically precise lattice of atoms, and are the most orderly substances in nature. The crystalline structure responds in a particular way to different forms of energy, from heat, light, and sound, to electricity, gamma rays, and even the subtle energies used in crystal healing therapy. The particular resonant frequency of a piece of crystal depends on how it is cut in terms of thickness and size.

How Quartz Crystal Healing Therapy Works

The science of crystal healing is similar to the way crystals are used in technological devices. Energy is channeled through the crystal. The molecular structure of the crystal than oscillates, resulting in a certain resonance of energy emission.

Crystals can be used to reflect, refract, magnify, balance, store, focus, and amplify energy. They can take the subtle energy intended by a crystal healer and direct it towards the patient, either balancing their subtle energy bodies, supplying an intense, focused source of healing energy to an area of disharmony, or releasing negative thoughtforms that may be causing disease through their relentless presence in one of the subtle energy bodies.

Using Multiple Quartz Crystals for Healing

The power of crystals can be further amplified by combining multiple crystals in specific geometric patterns, thus creating unified energy fields known as gridwork systems. The energies of several quartz crystals work in harmony, yielding a stronger energy field-strength and a more intense therapeutic effect. A crystal healer working with a grid work system generally sits in the center of the geometrical pattern made by the crystals, and holds a focal crystal to unify and direct the subtle energies. The frequencies emanate in circular wave patterns, intersecting from one another and forming a dynamic subtle energy grid.

Quartz Crystal Healing Therapy Without a Crystal Healer

A crystal healer enhances the healing power of their own psychic healing energies with quartz crystals. The power of crystals, however, is not dependent on a crystal healer. It is believed that quartz crystals carry their own inherent healing properties, as they naturally absorb negative energy and transmit only positive, beneficial energy.

Through physical proximity to the crystals, or using a technique, such as the Ayurvedic method of infusing healing resonant frequencies into a glass of water overnight and then drinking it, one can use crystals for healing independently of a healer. Crystal healing therapy is known to be beneficial for alleviating pain, promoting mental clarity, elevating one’s vibration, refracting disharmonious energies, attracting positive energy, and releasing negative energy.

Quartz crystal healing therapy can be as simple as a way to increase one’s own well-being through the use of vibrational energy, or as intense as a professional crystal healer working with a the energies of multiple crystals in a gridwork system to heal a major illness. What role crystals played in the past may never be fully understood, but with modern technology, they could play an important role in the future of medicine.
