Healing with Crystals and Stones

One of the oldest practices for healing involves putting stones on the body or even in the mouth. This practice has been described in surviving documents from the Medieval time period.

This practice uses different layouts on the body depending on the healer.  Some use something called gridding. This uses the placement of stones on a specific point and crossing it to another point.

Stones are cleansed and dedicated to each receiver to help the person reconnect to the planets and universe.  This allows the life force in the chakras to move freely to heal. The laying on of stones will depend on the healer, they may use only clear quartz, gemstones, or some combination of the two.

Using Stones with Reiki or Hands on Healing

This practice can be used by itself or in combination with Reiki or hands on healing.  The stones are generally placed from head to foot.  The healer will then use their hands from the head and down towards to the feet.

If gemstones are used, they can be selected to match the aura.  The gemstone doesn’t have to be in any specific form, and they can be cut and faceted or tumble stones.  The energy used in this type of healing needs to move in once consistent direction.  The healer should know how to adjust the direction of the stones depending on the need of the person being healed.

Starting the Healing

At the start of the healing, the recipient will lie down on a massage table or padded area on the floor.  Pillows are placed under the knees and head to make the recipient more comfortable.  The whole room should be warm, comfortable, and quiet.   It is very important that only stones that are dedicated to healing and positive energy.  The healer may invite sprit guides into the session.

Putting the Crystal Above the Head and Below the Feet

The healer will start by placing a crystal above the head and a crystal below the feet.   The healer will then move from chakra to chakra, placing the gemstone for each area.  The healer will be guided by how your body reacts to the stones such as the stones not needed will roll away to where it is needed.

Hands On Healing

At this point, the healer may begin the hands-on healing by gently covering the stones with the hand, visualizing the color and energy of the stone moving into the body.  The healer will flick away the negative energy as they go from place to place.

Waiting for the Stones to Work

Your helper may choose to simply sit beside you after placing the stones. They will wait to allow the stones and guides do the work of the healing.   Next in this process, the stones will roll off as they complete their work of balancing the chakra and aura.

Completing the Healing

Once the healing is complete, all of the stones will be off of the body.  The healer will then finish with a brushing of the aura and the recipient will lie still for a few moments after the healing.   At this point, the recipient should discuss anything they feel necessary before moving on.

Gathering the Stones

When the healer has finished, the stones will be gathered and to be put away in a protective container to be cleared before the next healing. A healing with stones is an intense experience.  There will be a big energy shift throughout the healing.  The recipient may go through many emotions as their aura and chakras are balanced. The healer’s role is to assist and not to judge.

Feelings of Physical Detox

The recipient may go through the feelings of a physical detox. They should be advised to relax and let it pass as any changes will be for the good.

  1. The idea of stones ‘rolling off’ when their work is done is quite symbolic and aligns with the concept of energy flow and balance in the body. This dynamic aspect adds a unique layer to the healing process.

  2. The concept of inviting spirit guides into the session introduces a spiritual element that might enhance the overall healing experience. It’s a holistic approach that blends physical, emotional, and spiritual healing.

  3. The integration of stones with Reiki or hands-on healing adds another dimension to the practice, potentially amplifying the effects. It would be interesting to see empirical studies on the efficacy of this combined approach.

    • I agree, Mary. Scientific research into these traditional healing methods could provide valuable insights and perhaps more acceptance in mainstream medicine.

  4. The practice of using stones in healing seems rooted in a deep understanding of energy work and historical traditions. It’s fascinating to see how these ancient techniques are being incorporated into modern holistic practices.

  5. It’s intriguing that the body’s reaction to the stones guides the healer. This seems to imply a highly personalized treatment experience, which could be beneficial for addressing individual energetic imbalances.
