Crystal healing is a pseudoscientific alternative medicine practice built around semiprecious stones and crystals such as quartz, agate, amethyst and opal. Practitioners place or hold these stones against the body in the belief that they can boost low energy, prevent or release blocked energy, and alter the aura of the person being treated. No scientific evidence supports these claimed healing powers, and the practice is classified as pseudoscience.
