What is a crystal light treatment?

,

A crystal light treatment offers far more than chakra balancing: it is a transformative encounter with colour, quartz, and the spirit realm. Drawing on years of practice in Coogee and roots in Spiritism, this piece explains the session step by step and what kinds of inner change it may gently unlock. (6 min read)


A crystal light treatment is an opportunity to take time out—surrender mundane thoughts and receive. It is a relaxing, rejuvenating and rebalancing experience which can strengthen awareness, deepen connection to the divine, and aid transformation.

If you are curious about crystal light healing, this is the post for you.

I am the custodian of a crystal light apparatus from Brasil (it is sometimes called a “crystal light bed”), which I keep in my home in Coogee, NSW.

Since 2008, I have offered crystal light treatments to individuals and couples. Over the years, I have seen clients with lots of different issues helped by the light treatments. But I have most enjoyed working with advanced souls who are seeking to progress spiritually.

Some people come for rest and re-centering. Others come because they feel ready for something deeper—something that reaches beyond the everyday level. This work can meet you in both ways.

Before your treatment: Intention and preparation

The treatment process begins as soon as you make an appointment with me. Firstly, I invite you to reflect upon and write down the matters you want addressed through the treatment. Your intentions do not need to be shared with me, but I recommend you keep them in your pocket during the treatment.

I also recommend you wear white or light coloured clothing for the session (this helps me to see your energy field). You remain fully clothed throughout the treatment—just removing your shoes, watch and jewellery and turning off your mobile telephone.

You will have a cloth over your eyes during the treatment, and if the weather is cold, I have a fresh blanket available for you.

Once you arrive, I take you straight into the room. I show you the device and we begin. The preparatory and clean up work is on me, not on you.

The lights and the experience

The treatment is conducted on a very comfortable, regular king size single bed.

Suspended over the bed is the crystal light apparatus comprised of 7 pure Vogel cut crystals connected to very bright lights shining through different coloured filters. These filters are used to correspond with the major chakras or energy centres of the body. The crystal lights are positioned about 50cm above each of the major chakras.

As the photograph at the top of this post illustrates, the physical and etheric bodies are immersed in coloured light during the treatment.

The gentle pulsing rhythm of the lights, combined with beautiful music, makes it easy to surrender. The vibration of the treatment room is always very high.

Crystals in the room

There are many powerful crystals in the room and I also placed 100kg of quartz crystal under the floor, programmed to support your treatment.

There is a popular association of crystals with ‘woo-woo’ and too little awareness of the practical and scientific application of quartz crystal. I am most interested in the programable nature of quartz crystal and its capacity to hold energy:

“Quartz crystal is valued for its piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties, by which it can transform mechanical pressure or heat into electromagnetic energy, and vice versa. Its ability to focus, amplify, store and transform energy is used throughout the technology world in ultrasound devices, watches, microphones, radio transmitters and receivers, memory chips in computers and other electronic circuitry”.

The Spirit realm: The heart of the work

Around the treatment room there are small images of the saints, ascended masters, and other superior spirits that I work with.

For me, this is not a separate topic or an “optional extra.” It is part of the treatment itself.

Many practitioners focus mainly on the mundane aspects—relaxation, chakra harmonising, and the more ordinary effects of energy healing. Those experiences can be real and meaningful. And yet, when I look at the transformations that matter most, the deeper change has come through the spirit realm: through benevolent guidance, help and intervention.

This is why I prepare the space with meditation the evening before a treatment. I call in the good spirits ahead of the client’s arrival and balance the energy in the space for them.

During the treatment, I meditate in another room, praying for the client’s intentions (which are generally not known to me) and making my energy available to the good spirits to help them.

I also extend my prayers beyond the immediate room—honouring patients in the nearby Prince of Wales Hospital, old folks and children within the field of the apparatus, people interacting with the criminal justice system and, of course, the natural environment (particularly the Pacific Ocean at Coogee Beach).

After the lights: Closing and integration

At the conclusion of the agreed treatment time, I turn off the crystal lights and give the client a little time in the room alone before joining them for a brief guided meditation and closing instructions.

I invite clients to look at themselves in the mirror after the treatment—many weep when they see how clean their field is.

I may ask about the client’s experience or share information I have received, but I generally discourage conversation and, in particular, reactivating the issue the client has asked to transform. I encourage quiet and integration, so what has shifted can settle.

A Couple’s Approach (A Beautiful Way to Clear Together)

The crystal light work is available for couples, and it is my preferred way of working.

In the double session, one client sits in meditation with me while the other has the light treatment. Then we reverse roles.

The reason this is so helpful is that the person sitting with me is being guided to contribute their energy to the healing of the other person. This can gently but effectively clear very deep karma between them.

(There is more detail in the couples post.)

My calling and the origin of the work

The crystal lights have completely changed my life. Since I first experienced this modality in Bali in 2007, I have consistently found the treatment to be profound and remarkable.

I soon realised that part of my mission is to offer this treatment in Sydney. But, in retrospect, the crystal lights were not just calling me to Brasil to purchase the apparatus—they were calling me to a different way of being in the world.

In Brasil, I received instruction in the operation of apparatus and was given a framework to understand and support the crystal light work, specifically Spiritism and meditation in the Spiritist tradition.

As I practised this divinely inspired work, my mediumship developed and my focus expanded to include teaching meditation, as well as taking and then leading pilgrimage to holy sites. The holy sites I visited were mostly connected to the good spirits I invoked for the crystal light treatment and meditation. And so my relationships with the good spirits strengthened, along with my mediumship and the power of my work with the crystal lights.

I believe that regular crystal light bed treatments are an excellent way to keep your field clear and to connect with the good spirits.

What can be addressed?

As for the matters that can be addressed by a crystal light treatment, it is important to be prudent. I have witnessed some extraordinary physical healings, but the most important changes have been in the strengthening of faith, the understanding of life purpose and in relationships to the unseen world.

Chromotherapy chart – for information
The apparatus was accompanied by a chromotherapy reference chart linking each chakra colour with areas of the body that may be supported through coloured light. Below is the content of that chart in plain text. I include it for information only—many clients come for spiritual development rather than physical issues…

Crown (Violet):
Supports conditions associated with the head and crown area, including the nervous system and balance, and is described as supporting mental clarity and steadiness.

Brow/Indigo (Indigo):
Associated with the eyes and inner perception. The chart mentions conditions such as tension, insomnia-related patterns, and eye/vision-related discomfort.

Throat (Blue):
Associated with communication and expression. The chart mentions throat and upper respiratory-type conditions, and also states it may support tension and strain in the neck/shoulders.

Heart (Green):
Associated with the heart and emotional balance. The chart mentions conditions linked to the heart area and also refers to stress-related patterns.

Solar Plexus (Yellow):
Associated with digestion, confidence, and personal will. The chart mentions conditions related to the digestive system and “nervous system” effects.

Sacral (Orange):
Associated with the lower abdomen and reproductive area. The chart mentions kidney/adrenal/bladder-type conditions and general support for lower abdominal balance.

Root (Red):
Associated with the foundations of the body and lower systems. The chart mentions conditions relating to circulation, legs/feet, and support for stability and “grounding.”

Session timing (first visit + ongoing options)

Arrival & settling: ~5 minutes
Time under the lights:
First time: 20 minutes (to get used to the energies)
After that: you choose 20, 40 or 60 minutes
Closing down: ~10–15 minutes
Note: I handle preparation and clean-up. You arrive, I guide you, and we close gently together.

Ready when you are

If you feel drawn to begin with the crystal light experience, your first-time option is a short introduction under the lights (20 minutes). After that, you can choose the amount of time you feel called to—20, 40, or 60 minutes—so your experience stays aligned with you.

If you feel drawn more to meditation rather than the crystal lights, meditation sessions are available too.

If you’re coming as a couple, I also offer a preferred double session option (a beautiful way to support each other spiritually). There’s more information in the couples post.
