Summary of tourmaline

Birthstone for October with positive effects on the environment and health.
Beautiful tourmaline necklace Tourmaline (also known as Electronic Stone) is mined in many parts of the world including Brazil, Afghanistan, East Africa and the United States. It is the birthstone for October and has a wide variety of colors. Recently, it has become known that its electronic and chemical properties have significant positive effects on the environment and health.

Its unique crystal structure provides the following features.

1. Generates negative ions
2. Emits infrared rays

Applications of tourmaline

Negative ion generation, thermal effects, changing water quality, etc.
1. Negative ion generation
Tourmaline continues to generate negative ions forever and it can be used for improving health and the environment. Negative ions not only have positive effects on the human body but also purify the air.

External energy such as applying pressure or changing temperature is needed to activate the generation of negative ions because tourmaline generates very little amount of negative ions when not in motion or under uniform temperature conditions.

2. Thermal effects
Tourmaline bedclothes can make your body feel warm as infrared rays are emitted.

This quality is utilized to melt snow in areas affected by heavy snowfall.

3. Changing water quality
Water tastes better when mixed with tourmaline stones. Your skin glows after you immerse yourself in water mixed with tourmaline powder. It has not been fully analyzed how these effects occur but it is believed to be caused by mineral elements contained in this miracle stone.

Misunderstanding about tourmaline

Tourmaline has beneficial effects on health and the environment but it is not a panacea.
1. Tourmaline stores little electricity when not stimulated.
Tourmaline is electronically charged when external pressure is applied or through temperature change. It is believed that the Piezo and Pyro effects are connected with the generation of negative ions.

2. Tourmaline is not a panacea.
Some websites say, "Tourmaline is good for health" or "Tourmaline cures diabetes" but this is not applicable to everyone. Negative ions can help treat functional disorders but a recommended dosage for treatment purposes has not yet been established. It depends on symptoms, individuals, environment and many other factors. Time frames for treatment also depend on patients circumstances. Tourmaline can alleviate symptoms of atopic dermatitis (eczema) within a matter of days, while it may take several months before blood glucose levels start to fall. Some give up tourmaline therapy because it does not provide significant improvements quickly. Tourmaline is not a panacea and you have to be patient until symptoms alleviate. It is very important to understand this before you start tourmaline therapy.

3. Tourmaline generates little amount of negative ions when not in motion.
Tourmaline is activated when rubbed or pressure/heat is applied. There are many bedclothes, underwear and athletic support products containing tourmaline. These products generate negative ions because pressure and heat are applied while in use. However tourmaline products to which no external energy is applied generate little amount of negative ions. It is very important to understand this before you purchase tourmaline products.

4. All stones are not the same.
Mineralogically all tourmaline stones are categorized into the same group. However tourmaline's ability to generate negative ions varies depending on its physical structure, hardness, impurity level and from where it is mined. We suggest you should make sure your tourmaline stone generates a lot of negative ions before you start your therapy. Otherwise you will feel no effect!
