The Significance of Crystals in Reiki Courses

Crystals are used in the practice of Reiki. The crystals are not a must but they are another dimension to the Reiki experience. Reiki is based on the change in energy fields in the body and the matching of Reiki crystals to the change enhances the treatment. The crystals are beautiful to look at but their main purpose though is to amplify the Reiki healing.
