Crystal Healing for Inflammation: Your Guide to Choosing the Perfect Gem
Balance your energy to heal your pain
Crystals are often used as tools in holistic health practices. Many people believe that crystals can help support the body’s natural healing processes.
The idea behind crystal healing is based on several principles:
Vibrational Energy
Everything is made up of vibrations.
In chemistry class, you probably remember learning that everything is made of atoms. Atoms are in a constant state of motion. That constant state of motion is also called a vibration.
Healers believe that each crystal possesses a unique vibrational frequency. These vibrations interact with the energy fields (or auras) of living beings, including humans, to promote balance and well-being.
Energy Centers (Chakras)
Crystals can be aligned with the body’s energy centers, often referred to as chakras. Different crystals are associated with specific chakras. The idea is to use specific crystals to balance or cleanse these energy centers.
Intention and Visualization
Healing often involves setting an intention or goal for the healing session. Practitioners may meditate with the crystal, visualize the desired outcome, or simply focus their thoughts on healing while holding or wearing the crystal.
Great Crystals for Healing Inflammation
Amethyst
Known for its calming properties, amethyst can help reduce stress, which can cause increased inflammation. Amethyst is linked to the third eye chakra. It’s used to purify the mind and clear negative thoughts, stress, and anxiety.
Turquoise
Believed to have anti-inflammatory properties and can help with physical pain. This crystal is connected to the throat chakra. It helps enhance communication, self-expression, and spiritual connection.
Turquoise can also align all of the chakras, making it especially helpful for full-body healing.
