Question:
When I was 16 I developed cold hands and feet, this has been a permanent feature of my body since, I'm now 26. I went to see the doctor about it when I was 18 as I'd hoped it would go away but it never did. He diagnosed me as having Raynauds Syndrome, said he didn't know much about it and that there was little that could be done. It was just one of them things. He did prescribe some medication just to see if it would make a difference, but nothing. I have tried many things over the years but none of them worked.
Recently I began carrying a quartz crystal around in my pocket and holding it in my hands as much as possible. I am amazed to say it is making a difference, and my hands are much warmer because of it, almost normal, and I think they are getting better all the time. Does anyone know why this may be?? I had originaly believed Crystal healing to be a load of old cobblers, but it is undeniably making a big difference to my hands. It has made me think that there might be a lot more to alternative therapies than most people give them credit for. I would appreciate any ideas on why this has helped. Thx.:)
Hi Boing, Welcome to HP. I love your username, it makes me smile.[sm=1syellow1.gif]
Take a look at the crystal topic "What are crystals", thats a good place to start, it was one of the first posts posted here.
I'm glad using crystals is helping you. They are truly wonderful gifts of Nature and full of healing energies. A stone is healing, a shell is healing, a piece of coral is healing, the list is endless.
Clear Quartz has many healing properties, and I would guess that any crystal healer has a clear quartz in their toolbox! Its great for clearing the energy field/aura around a person and releasing energy blockages. Excellent crystal for meditation, for clarity of thought, there are just too many to mention.
Crystals are also used in vibrational essences, called gem elixirs, and the results are incredible.
Enjoy your time with your crystal, it is a living entity with its own consciousness.
Love and light

Hi Boing
Raynauds Syndrome as you probably know is to do with the blood circulation, where the blood does not quite reach the top vessels in the fingers & toes, when the weather turns cold, leaving hands and feet looking rather[:'(]
Blood stone is the crystal associated with 'blood' circulation stating the obvious I know, try carrying/using one of these either with or without your quartz and see how things change ... if at all... I say this, because as I have often said...what one crystal does for one person it may not do for the next...as we are all so very different,
Also, make sure you wrap up really warm...even in the spring when it looks beautiful out there...I always have a pair of gloves with me...don't really care for whitish/blue hands[:o]
Good luck
luv & peace

Hi Boing, I've just checked my crytal book and it mentions clear quartz being used for circulation problems.
Good advice from Stormdeva, bloodstone being used for a lot of circulation conditions.
Isn't it great how crystals seem to find us?

Hi guys, thanks for the responses and advice, I really appreciate it.
I did originally think that my Raynauds was caused by poor circulation, that's what my Doctor told me and that's what most information I read on it said. It made sense that lack of blood would make them cold. But now I am not convinced that is so. I have tried many different things that help with circulation including medication and Ginkgo Biloba, but they made no difference to my hands or feet, which would remain cold even if I was in a hot room or held them near a radiator. The condition of my tootsies has been more like my body has been trying to divorce them, no longer wanting anything to do with them.
The condition developd in the middle of a very emotionaly stressful three years for me, and I think that it is linked to what was happening in my life at that time. I have read on the web that living things have subtle energy bodies, and that there is an emotional one that stores up negative emotions if they aren't released properly. The eventual result of storing this negativity is some physical condition. This sounds like something that could have happened to me. I've also read that Crystals help to balance your aura, so maybe this is why it's helping, I am very excited about this as I've finaly found something that works. And the mystery of it all is delicious.:D
Hi Boing
So, nice for there to be another fella out there that finally agree's there is something to be said for crystals. Yeh ok HP guys...I know that you do exist but you are few are far between...bless each & every one of you[sm=grouphug.gif] Yep, got it in one...and in your case good ol' Raynauds which incidently can be inherited[&:] I know...I've inherited it from my mother, and both of my children have it but, for them it's quite mild
Putting your hands on or near radiators, is not a good idea, nor is plunging them into hot water, ok it works quickly but, can have not so good long term effects...the best way is to 'rub' your hands together to get the blood moving...(also those poor little toes...just don't fall over while your doing it)[sm=rollaugh.gif]
Oh, and while I think of it Welcome to the HP family
luv & peace

Stormdeva - thanks for the welcome, I'm happy to be joining in the discussion.
Something else that I'm wondering about is, stabbing pains, not very painful and don't last very long. But I am getting them quite regularly mostly under my arm pits and on the bottom of my feet or in the roof of my mouth. Do these mean anything, I'm not worried really, because they arent very painful? I think they must be related to having a crystal as I don't normally get these.
Hi Boing
Just where did that 'user' name come from[sm=bouncy.gif] Could be an energy shift...but I am not medically qualified to make a diagnosis...(just a humble therapist) if your not concerned...wait and see what happens...but if you become concerned go and see a doctor.
luv & peace

[sm=wave.gif]Hi,crystall fans and users!
May I add, I also developed icecold[sm=banghead.gif] feet 3 years ago and was very surprised about as offended-moi??[sm=nuts.gif] cold feet?? Have used some herbal creams,effective but not nicely smelling,especially not on hands![:'(]
Then I had read ( I think it was Osho) a spiritual explanation for this phenomen - when a person beggins his/her spiritual journey, may not know how to balance properly his/her energy bodies when they are changing-energy channels being opened up - as a consequence may happen a lack of energy at the bottom of energy system therefore cold extremities on physical level.
It makes sense to me,also explains why crystals (quartz especially ) help being a catalysts of our own energy.
But Stormdeva put it correctly - different crystals work for different persons -and also for the same condition! I just have used my rose quartz crystal when waken up in the middle of the [sm=sleep.gif]night from coldice[:@] feet! I've put it near them -after 5 minutes they were warm as should they be!!
Hi Cristal, Bad choice of colour, I can't read your post at all!

Rosi - being colourblind, I often have trouble reading posts if people use different colours.
What to do is.........Click at the end of Cristals posts then hold and drag the curser to the start of her post. This highlights all her post making it easier to read.
