Amethyst uses
If you’d like to try out the reported healing benefits of amethysts for yourself, here are a few ways you can incorporate them into your life:

Carry a small amethyst crystal in your pocket or purse.
Wear jewelry made from amethysts, such as necklaces, bracelets, or rings.
Place amethyst crystals or geodes in your home.

Alternative medicine practitioners may use amethysts and other crystals in healing by placing them around the body. Or, they might set them on the body parts associated with different energy paths.
Do Amethysts Have Any Proven Healing Properties?
Complementary and alternative medicine practitioners frequently use crystals to aid in healing the mind and body.

One such crystal is purple amethyst, which is thought to be powerful. While ayurvedic and natural health practitioners may recommend using amethysts for healing, not much scientific research supports their use.
Physical health claims
According to online claims, amethysts are said to have several physical healing properties, including:

enhancing the immune system
improving endocrine function
improving the skin’s appearance
promoting digestive health
reducing headaches
regulating hormones

These are all scientifically unproven claims, however. While some of these benefits may be real, the scientific community views research as proof of effectiveness — and in this case, there hasn’t been much of it.
