“Inhale, think positive and unite your intentions with the energy of crystals.” It sounds like esoteric talk, but this is one of the instructions that precede Crystal Light Therapy, a treatment at the Modrn Sanctuary spa, in New York, which promises to clean and restore the energy of the chakras, vital energy centers that are distributed throughout the spine, according to the indian medicine. Preparation consists of writing healing requests on paper and choosing a frequency from the options menu. Measured in hertz, radiofrequency waves have names like "pain reduction" and "return to spiritual order." Then, just line up the seven colored crystals on the body and focus on the power of the stones for 30 minutes. “They release energy blocks from the body and make it vibrate at new and appropriate frequencies,” says Alexandra Janelli, owner of the spa.
