FAQs
Yes, there are two other energies that tourmaline crystals can produce: Tourmaline crystals are piezoelectric, which means that when a crystal is heated, from body heat, compressed or vibrated, the tourmaline can convert that energy into an electrical potential charge. This charge will form at opposite ends of the crystal. This produces negative ions, which are associated with a more alkaline body pH, scavenging free radicals, reducing inflammation, healing at a more rapid rate and anti-aging.
Tourmaline crystals are also pyroelectric, which means that they can generate a weak electric current from being stimulated by heat, compression, or vibration. This is like having a tens unit without batteries.
The crystal tourmaline emits far infrared energy, which stimulates cells and tissues to recover and heal more rapidly. Used in saunas for healing for thousands of years, far infrared energy has been considered a promising treatment modality for healing.
Tourmaline reduces oxidative stress, and helps to maintain health and wellness. Tourmaline also increases blood flow.
