Christy Napier

Christy Napier has worked with crystals, gemstones, and diamonds on the retail level for
25 years. Four years ago, she found herself working with them on a holistic level.
Rediscovering what the ancients, and even our grandparents, knew of the unique healing
energies of crystals, she custom designs jewelry so that clients can benefit from these
energies. Her classes, co-authored by Jennifer Moore, cover everything from the basics
(what is a crystal) to how to use these energies for better health.

Christy is also a Tibetan and Usui Reiki Master/Teacher. Reiki is a Japanese relaxation
technique that promotes healing on all levels. She incorporates the use of crystals, upon
client request, during Reiki treatments.
