From Brazil John of God Chakra Crystal Light Therapy
Crystal Light Therapy is being used by hundreds of health centers throughout the world.
Each crystal is aligned above one of the seven energy centers of chakras. Colored lights, chosen to match the chakra colors, radiate light energy and a positive higher frequency through the crystals to each respective chakra. The lights shine on and off in a precise pattern designed to cleanse, balance, and align your energies. The crystals act as natural lasers that focus, accelerate and increase the energy into a tight beam of light for optimum effectiveness.
Within 40 minutes, the union between body, space and earth is created. The result is that the different levels; physical, psychological and ethereal become aligned and the body's own potential of auto-recovery is intensely stimulated.
Many people who have had "Chakra Crystal Light Therapy" sessions have reported some of the following...

"Scientists have found that modulated coherent light from lasers and lighted crystal have a powerful healing effect on our cells and organs. The healing modalities of the future will utilize coherent light and modulated light to not only affect cells, tissues, and organs, but also to modulate the body's subtle energetic system-the human chakra system-and directly influence the healing process"
