My brother-in-law was just diagnosed with ALS. What crystal would be good for him?
Good Morning,
Blessings to you and your family during this challenging time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
In my research, those who have ALS (also known as Lou Gehrig's disease) are mainly affected by muscle control, strength and coordination issues. For most, this is a gradual process, with symptoms appearing over time. The five senses, understanding/comprehension, etc all stay fully in tact and are not affected. Of course, I must share the standard disclaimer that I am not a doctor and cannot give out medical advice. Crystals for healing should be used as a compliment to other therapies and not as a replacement for regular medical care.
With that being said, I want to address three main issues here — motor function (control, strength, coordination), brain function and nerve cells.
If I was to recommend a single crystal that I felt would be the most helpful in this situation, it would be Amber. Amber alleviates pain, strengthens tissues, aids in cell rejuvenation and assists in treating brain function disorders.
Danburite increases muscle tone and motor function (control, strength and coordination).
Kunzite and/or Lepidolite can help to treat disorders of the muscular system.
To address the nerve cells located in the brain that are thought to cause this issue, I would recommend Lapis Lazuli which can help to improve brain function, or Stilbite which treats a variety of brain disorders.
For the nerve cells themselves, Aragonite can stimulate healing while Manganocalcite heals at the cellular level. Chrysoprase is also recommended for system cell rejuvenation.
Surround your brother with love and support and we will do the same :)
With love and crystal blessings,
Kristi
