Crystal Chakra Healing

Our whole universe is made up of energy and our bodies are no exception. Each one of us have thousands of chakras, located all over our body. Traditionally, the 7 main Chakras run from the base of our spine right up to the crown of our head. The word chakra is a Sanskrit word which means wheel of light, each one of these wheels of pure energy represent a different rainbow colour – red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and finally violet. Each of the chakras are associated with different parts of our physical and emotional body, so when we are exposed to low vibrational energies, stressful periods in our lives, fears or doubts, our chakras can become blocked or slowed, which then leads to physical and emotional problems within our lives. In balancing each chakra, you can let go of negative energy, therefore allowing them to flow easily, which then brings higher vibrational energies, situations and people into your life.

While we cannot avoid coming into contact with negative energies or stressful situations, thankfully there are plenty of ways to cleanse, energize and balance each chakra. One of the most effective ways to do this is by using crystals. Crystals have been used for thousands of years to heal and bring balance to the body. They work through resonance and high vibrational frequencies, each crystal has its own unique power to harmonize and cleanse individual chakras, bringing them back into alignment, which leads to profound effects on our health and lives.

The Seven Chakra’s explained:

The Root Chakra (Muladhara)

In Sanskrit the word Muladhara breaks down into two words, Mula means “Root” and Adhara translates to “support” or “base”, this chakra is located at the base of our spine in the tailbone area. This centre holds our basic needs for survival, security, trust and safety, it gives us the feeling of being grounded to the physical world. When this chakra is open we possess the energy to succeed, we feel confident that we are safe in the world and that our needs will be met, if this chakra is blocked an individual may become fearful, anxious, threatened, as if we are standing on unstable ground.

This chakra governs pleasure, desire, self-awareness, creativity, and self-worth, it gives us our ability to relate to others in an open friendly way.

This chakra influences our ability to give and receive love, it is also the chakra that connects the body, mind and spirit.

What to expect in a treatment:

I offer Crystal Chakra Clearing along with the healing modalities I provide. The client stays fully clothed, lying down on my treatment table. Once the client is comfortable, I use a crystal pendulum to check the client’s chakras, when I have determined which chakras need attention, I lay a cover over my client, and then place specific crystals on the chakra points and other areas on and around the body, they usually stay there for the duration of the healing treatment I am offering. Once I have almost completed the treatment, I remove the crystals, check the client’s chakras again and if required I will do an extra targeted healing on any areas that require additional attention.

What are the benefits of using crystals:

Using crystals to clear and balance your chakras adds an extra level of healing to any treatment I offer.
