Gem therapy is relatively new. Actually it's old and new at the same time. Charkha therapy came from China and India. In the old days they used crystal therapy or quartz therapy because they were semiprecious stones. Most of the time, they were applied to the charkhas or energy centers of the system. There are seven centers of energy located along the spine. One is at the top of the head, one is in the third eye, one is in the throat, and so on. By applying gems to those points of energy, you are able to facilitate that particular energy. You are able to facilitate the body energetically into homeostasis and wholeness in general. The belief is that gems actually have the energetic power to assist that energy into healing itself.
