When Reiki Practitioners integrate crystals during their private sessions, they enhance the healing experience for their clients. Crystals are easy to acquire and not only add a lovely ambiance to the environment, but they also possess healing qualities as well.
There are several different ways you can use crystals during a Reiki healing treatment. They may be held by the client, placed on different areas of the body or may even be placed around the treatment room to help facilitate healing during the session.
