Crystal healing practitioners claim that every living organism has a "vibrational energy system," which includes chakras, subtle bodies and meridians.
By using the appropriate crystals one can allegedly "tune" an energy system or rebalance energies, thus improving well-being.
The earliest records of crystal healing come from ancient Egypt. The Ebers papyrus records the medicinal uses of many different gems. Healing with crystals is also recorded in India's Ayurvedic records and in traditional Chinese medicine from around five thousand years ago.
