Round Slender Wands - Black Tourmaline

These wands have rounded ends and taper to a rounded point. Each is cut from a larger natural stone or crystal and is truly unique. Wands are commonly used for directing energy in reflexology, massage and crystal healing.

Tourmaline is the most multicolored mineral type known, occurring in virtually every color of the spectrum. It has many interesting optical properties. When viewed through their vertical axis, some specimens appear darker or differ in color than when seen through their horizontal axis. Certain Tourmalines exhibit a cat's eye effect when polished. This mineral is also piezoelectric which means that through mechanical action an electric pulse is formed, similar to quartz.

Tourmaline is sought after as a talisman of protection to deflect and counteract negative energies. It is also used to guard against radiation and environmental pollutants.

Chakra is a Sanskrit word that means wheel. It refers to the energy centers found in the body. Most Eastern traditions describe seven major Chakras positioned along the midline of the body from the base of the spine to the crown of the head.
