Crystals for Cancer Patients

Crystal healing dates back all the way to Ancient Sumerian times, as early as 4000 BCE. They were commonly used for protection, health, and cosmetic purposes and have been said to help relieve pain, prevent illness, and slow down the spread of cancerous cells within the body. Crystals are still being used for these wonderful benefits.
