Crystal Light Therapy
‘Nature itself is the best physician’ Hippocrates
Einstein stated that ‘everything in the universe is made up of energy’.
For thousands of years man has known the benefits of energy healing using the sun, colour, and crystals. Traditional healers, the doctors and shamans of ancient cultures, used the power of healing crystals within their techniques.
The word crystal is derived from the Ancient Greek word κρύσταλλος [kristalos] meaning ‘frozen light’ or ‘pure ice’. Crystals are nature’s store for unique electro-magnetic mineral energy and they have been used since ancient times. Powerful rays of colour determine the frequency of energy that they emit, which when penetrating the skin affect the cells in the human body.
During early Egyptian times, patients would be treated in the middle of the day while the sun was at its zenith. Therapeutes (Healers) would lie them down and then place crystals on their bodies, surrounded by sheets of gold and silver to reflect the sunlight so that its rays could release colour, light and crystalline energy, which would seep down into the bodily tissues, organs and meridians to stimulate healing.
Now in the 21st century, exposure to sunlight is well known to help with depression, produce vitamin D, absorb calcium, help skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, build strong bones and teeth, improve SAD syndrome and regulate the Circadian rhythms of the body. Light plays a central role in regulating circadian rhythm, the body's internal clock that signals when to be awake and when to rest. Light also affects the production of melatonin, an essential sleep-promoting hormone.
Addressing natural healing frequencies, with colour, light and gem stones the vibrational rate of the body’s cells, organs, and glands, can be influenced at a level which is powerful and provides effective and rapid results.
Everything in the material universe, including humans, is electrical energy and has a resonance or level of vibration and its own electro-magnetic frequency. These are shown in the human body at the Assemblage Point (AP), the epicentre of energy within the human energy field.
This is of fundamental importance to Crystal Light Therapy, as it is often the underlying cause of ill health. The Assemblage Point is at the centre of the human energy system, from which a vortex emerges that surrounds the whole body. Normally located in the upper chest its angle of entry has a direct correlation to the clients energy (also known as chi, qi or prana). This in turn is linked to the activity level of organs and glands, including the brain. Therefore the person’s behaviour and feelings are directly affected by the AP. This is seen as light and should a person’s energy flow be restricted or altered in any way, it will be out of balance and affect their health. Because of this, it is considered within the field of energy medicine.
