What exactly is crystal healing?
"Crystals are different combinations of minerals that help purify, balance and realign by working with our bioenergetic systems".
Crystal Healing is a modality that taps into the energy of stones and crystals for their healing properties. Crystals and gemstones are some of the most profound and ancient energetic healing tools used throughout all healing traditions. Crystal Healing is a powerful technique used to clear the chakras, cleanse negative energy, balance emotions and realign the client physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
And it is a holistic and natural healing that taps into the energetic power of crystals and how they affect the body and mind. A crystal healer will place healing crystals on or around a client to help unblock, focus and direct energy. Each crystal resonates at it's own specific vibration and it is this frequency that determines the healing properties of the stone. The stones are placed on or around the body according to the energy of the stone and the specific needs of the client. The healer can also use tools such as wands or pendulums to move the energy.

How to choose your crystals?
In terms of colour, in general, dark-coloured crystals are said to focus on safeguarding an individual, with black for protection and brown for cleansing, while white is considered the colour of purity, and green the shade to choose when seeking moments of calm. In a similar way, pink-coloured stones are said to focus on love; red on energy; and yellow on wealth and plenty.
Crystals that are round are also said to help emit energy equally around them, while those with a point direct positive energy inward or negative energy out from the body (or in both directions if they are pointed at both ends).
What to expect in a crystal healing session?
Sessions will be tailored to you and will differ depending on the nature of your concern. Your session will begin with a consultation. This is when you speak with me( crystal healer ) about what's brought you to them and what you're hoping for. I will ask a number of questions; crystal healing is a holistic approach, meaning it looks at all aspects of health ( physical, mental and spiritual ) .
Once you have had your consultation, I will know what approach will work best for you, which crystals to use, and how to place them. You will be made comfortable and asked to lie down ( fully clothed ) on a sofa or on cushions on the floor. When you are relaxed with your eyes closed, I will begin placing crystals on and around your body. Sometimes I will use a dowsing pendulum to help them determine where the crystals should go.
The crystals will be left in place for a certain amount of time ( this will depend on your circumstances but can be anywhere from 30 minutes to over an hour ). During this time you are encouraged to breathe deeply and simply relax. I may add or remove crystals during the session. Some people report feeling sensations ( a warmth or tingle ) while others feel nothing. Don't worry if you don't feel anything, this doesn't mean your energies haven't been affected.
When the session is over, I will remove the crystals and you'll be encouraged to ground yourself in your body by becoming aware of your surroundings and physical sensations. Some people say they feel a difference in themselves immediately, for others it takes longer for the healing to take effect.
You may be recommended a number of treatments and often people choose to have ongoing treatments to support their overall health. As the healing takes place, you may experience an energetic detox, when negative energy quickly leaves your body. This can lead to difficult emotions being brought to the surface, so it's important to ensure therapist( me ) is qualified and experienced to support you.
How long does a session last?
Crystal Healing sessions typically take about 30-60 mins and can be done in person or remotely. Prior to starting the session we'll spend up to 20 mins discussion the purpose of the session so we can select the right and perfect crystals for your session. The majority of our clients come to work on balancing out their chakras, opening closed off chakras or calming down over active chakras.
For in person sessions you will lay on a massage table and the selected crystals will be placed on and around you and you may be asked to hold some. Healing music will softly play in the background as the energy of the crystals blends with your energy. After the session you are encouraged to drink plenty of room temperature water to help detoxify. Though rare, some client have experienced a mild physical reaction to the crystal work such as a headache or body aches. Be gentle with yourself after the session so you can continue to integrate the energy.

Remote Energy Healing
How does 'remote' energy healing even work?
You may wonder how it's even possible but
you'll be amazed when you realise that it is!
The remote energy healing is a way to receive therapy for a certain period of time without coming to the salon after you provide your photos and tell symptoms. And Crystals can be used for extremely successful remote healing sessions because they are not bound by either time or space. A remote session has the advantage of purity. There are no distractions from perceiving the energy, because that is all there is to work with. This provides an opportunity for extraordinary depth and breadth in the energy work.
For many people, experiencing the etheric realm, and Energy Healing, in this way, is a very moving and enlightening experience. In contrast, an In-Person session has multiple additional layers, including the physical-allowing for hands-on contact and much visual information. Energy knows no space or time. Remote healing is based on the belief that the body is permeated by an energy field that can affect our health and well-being. It is also called subtle energy, vibrational energy or simply, life force. Known in Ayurveda, we can work with this energy to find balance and healing. Even from a distance, we can achieve, deep relaxation and mental clarity. It can be performed on people or pets( cats and dogs ).
