The Theory of Healing Gemstones

There is a belief that gemstones and crystals have healing properties.  Some use gemstone and crystal therapies to energize, heal illness, help break bad habits and make changes in their personalities.  Proponents claim it to be energy medicine.

The theory is that gemstones carry vibrational rates.  By placing these vibrational rates within the aura - your aura's vibrational rates also change.
