But have you thought how this might work? We know that there is such a thing as color therapy. And if you would look up the impact of light on the body and its many spectrums you would find the effects are substantial.
Electromagnetic radiation does affect the body, but in the case of visible light rays, I'd wonder if it isn't all psycological. It might not be, but even then, white light carries all of the visible wave lengths so it wouldn't matter whether you carry a colored object.
There was a study, for instance, of rats with purposely damaged retinas exposed to infrared light, that in nearly every case were 90% healed.
How well did the rats heal without the light?
Also, we all know the presence of different fields have various effects. We know that at an atomic level every thing is vibrating, and colors are just vibrations of different frequencies.
Not exactly. Everything does vibrate but that's from heat not light waves. Infrared light can be converted into heat, but that's about it.
We also know that there is such a thing as sympathetic resonance. You may see where I am going with this, but if a field is vibrating (gemstone in this case) in near proximity to the body long enough, perhaps the body responds by resonating. I believe the body is sensitive to certain energies that cannot be measured with our current science, isn't this true of dreams? Do you know a machine that can record dreams besides our mind?
A functional MRI could record your brain activity while you dream (though it would be pretty hard to fall asleep in the machine). Due to our limited understanding of the human brain, you can't interpret the brain activity but you can record it.
I appreciate your skepticism. Yet if you want to live forever, you will probably run into people from other planets eventually (even Einstein said, "It is scarcely possible to think that life on other planets does not exist") and discover technologies that don't make sense. We have much to learn. "Imagination is more important than knowledge" he also said. I read that Einstein got a lot of his ideas by imagining, not by necessarily always looking at studies, because a lot of what he realized was new to the world at the time. So perhaps in this case, it may be appropriate, since this is very new ground. And finally, here is a quote from a medical director from www.gemisphere.com : I use Green Tourmaline and other gems on a regular basis. The bottom line is that the gemstones do make a difference--although sometimes I have a difficult time believing it myself!

There are certainly things we don't know about the universe. But we have to look at the evidence to see what is and isn't likely. Anything's
possible but that doesn't make it
plausible. So with the lack of supporting evidence, it's more likely that the gem stones are just placebos.
I am looking for answers just like all of you. And I will continue to try and discover why spherical gemstones have the effect they do on me. I have also limited use with crystals. If you want to try and experiment, put a quartz crystal in a glass of drinking water for an hour. Drink this water daily for a few days. Then stop drinking it. Notice Anything?
Again, there's no reason to think that a quartz crystal would affect the water. However, if you wanted to do a controlled study you would have to do it so that the person wouldn't know whether their water was exposed to quartz or not. That way, you could control for the placebo effect.
