The Hows and Whys of Crystal Medicine #4 of 7: Myths and Misconceptions of Crystal Healing


Separating Fact from Fiction

There is a mainstream thought in the western world that crystals are just pretty rocks however, there are simultaneously centuries-old practices utilizing their subtle healing powers.


Although there is significant scientific evidence supporting their efficacy, there continue to be many misconceptions surrounding their use. It is recommended that you give the concept of crystal healing another look. Reconsider what you already know to a new understanding of how they're used for healing purposes and really consider the scientific evidence supporting their associated properties. Common misconceptions about crystal healing and medicine are quickly becoming a thing of the past.


  • Crystal healing is an alternative therapy that utilizes the natural energy of crystals to promote healing and wellness.

  • The concept behind crystal healing is that each crystal has its unique energy and vibration that is used to balance and harmonize the energy centers, such as chakras in the body.


Crystals are commonly used in a variety of ways for healing purposes, including:

  • being placed on the body,

  • worn as jewelry

  • used in meditation


Despite the ongoing research of the potential benefits of crystal healing, there are also many misconceptions surrounding the practice.



Some common misconceptions about crystal medicine healing are:


  • crystal healing can replace traditional medical treatments, which is not true. It is recommended that crystal healing be used as a complementary therapy.

  • crystals can cure diseases, which is not supported by scientific evidence.

  • all crystals have the same properties, which is not true, as each crystal has its unique properties and vibrations.

  • crystal healing is only effective if you believe in it, which is also not true, as the healing properties of crystals are based on their scientific properties, not just belief.

  • crystals can only be used by people who have experience with crystal healing. More accurately, anyone can use crystals for healing purposes, as long as they do their research on the specific properties and uses of each crystal.

  • some believe that larger crystals are more powerful, but the size of the crystal does not necessarily determine its effectiveness.

  • it is believed that crystals can absorb negative energy and need to be cleansed regularly. While this is true for some crystals, not all crystals need to be cleansed in the same way, and it is important to research the specific cleansing methods for each crystal to ensure their continued effectiveness.



There is a growing body of scientific evidence to support the effectiveness of crystal healing,


Continuous studies are supporting that crystals contain healing properties. For example,


  • the piezoelectric effect, which is the ability of certain crystals to produce an electric charge when subjected to pressure or heat. This effect is currently being studied for its potential use in medical devices.

  • quantum mechanics suggests that everything in the universe has a vibrational frequency, including crystals. It also investigates the possibilities for their use in healing purposes. Because crystals have a unique molecular structure it allows them to absorb, store, and transmit energy in some very amazing ways. This may explain how crystals can balance and harmonize the body's energy fields which leads to healing and greater wellness.

  • epigenetics is the study of how environmental factors can affect gene expression without altering the underlying DNA sequence. This means that certain external factors such as emotions and thoughts can turn genes on or off, leading to changes in how cells function. Crystal healing is being looked at through epigenetic mechanisms by interacting with the body's energy fields and promoting positive changes in gene expression.

  • quantum entanglement, a phenomenon where particles become connected and affect each other regardless of distance is also being investigated to play a role in crystal healing. The vibrations and energy patterns emitted by crystals interact with the body's energy fields and thus creating a state of coherence, leading to healing and relaxation.

While there is still much work to be done in these areas, the emerging evidence suggests that these fields of study and research provide a growing body of support for the efficacy of crystal medicine healing and therapies.
