Do Healing Stones Really Work?

Stones that heal are not a new concept. The art of healing by the use of stones or crystals has been around for ages. Does that mean it really works? Not necessarily, although there is some evidence to suggest it can have a healing effect if used correctly. That could be the key, used correctly and maybe that is where the secret lies. Many cultures have used healing stones over the centuries so maybe there is some truth in it. It has been said that stones, rocks, and crystals all have metaphysical healing properties. These healing properties have been used as a powerful alternative to traditional forms of medicine and healing.

Metaphysical healing is a term bandied about here and even associations with magic and the occult. Maybe that is why some people are wary of the whole thing and stay well clear. I mean if the occult and magic is your thing go for it but there are many who would prefer to stay well away. So how does it all work? Apparently there are many trigger points throughout our body as many different sciences will attest to. Everything from acupuncture to various forms of massage uses these points to produce a healing effect. Stones are used in conjunction with these trigger points to produce the desired effect.

You can rub stones on your tummy to aid digestion or just walk about rolling a couple of stones in your hand to aid circulation and reduce stress. Abalone shell is good for muscle protection and digestion while amber has electromagnetic properties which are good for asthma and allergies. Many stones are said to have cleansing properties and can bring about physical, mental, and emotional healing.

The very beauty of crystals means that they are now made in to all forms of jewelry. That way you can have the healing crystal of your choice that you can wear as a piece of jewelry. That way your healing power is with you always and is not obvious to all and sundry.
