Tap Water Quartz Crystal Cleanse

We have a giant pink quartz crystal we use as a fever stone to draw out fevers. I’ve been using in for more than 20 years. My 30 year old daughter complained it’s too cold when I put it to her feverish forehead just last year.

That’s quite a crystal. Freezing the water drops in the photo is pretty cool.

Neat photo! And I find old toothbrushes under running water the best tool for cleaning my stones, too (most of which are carved rather than in their natural form — which means lots of nooks and crannies).

What a great photo! And I agree with Beth, old toothbrushes are very, very useful.

I haven’t tried crystal therapy, but a hot stone massage is surprisingly wonderful.

I thought the drops of water were crystals too for a second. What a wonderful picture.

The water details in the image make me feel as though I’m right in the photo.

I have two crystals I use quite a lot – glad to know the proper way to clean them!

i also thought the water droplets were crystals! Beautiful

I don’t really think it’s necessary to “scrub” a quartz, per-say. Running water alone is sufficient to cleanse a crystal. It is best if you can dunk your crystals in a natural source of running water, such as a river or stream, but tap water works well, too. Other methods of cleansing crystals for crystal healing include smudging with sage or incense, burying your crystals in salt rock, and soaking them in salt water.
