METHOD
Method
With many years of experience and a lot of love I have developed the SilberQuarzit Experiences and SilberQuarzit products to support people during their transformation processes. My knowledge is based on:
→ naturopathy
→ Traditional European Medicine (TEM)
→ theories of Paracelsus
→ therapeutic massage
→ traditional herbal medicine
→ salutogenic cosmetics
Besides, all SilberQuarzit treatments find their scientific justification in several different branches of modern medical sciences, essential for the final development and fine tuning of the experience:
→ neurolinguistics (connection between beliefs and verbal language)
→ neuroscience (connection with the nervous system)
→ biology (chemistry and physics of living beings)
→ biochemistry (metabolism)
→ epigenetics (information in the genes)
Spiritual depth
The decisive factor for the SilberQuarzit treatments is always depth. I never work on the surface, but efficiently create a very special state that allows deep energy blockages to dissolve. Such blockages are often the root of recurring fears or emotional “stuckness”. A deep connection to your elemental force is exactly the right way to find your way back to yourself. Strengthened and full of energy you’ll return to your life.
Rhythms of nature
Nature has always fascinated me. I enjoy observing the natural rhythm of the year in the growth of wild, high alpine plants. This deep energy, which I can observe on the mountain, is not only inherent in the wild plants, but also lives in the silver quartzite rock. The manual processing is of course very time-consuming, but it really pays off. So the very exclusive products can be made from the wild and unique resources of the valley Pfitsch. Of course, not all products are available during every season.
Quintessenz
I have developed these special products based on Paracelsus’ doctrine of signatures taking into account the power of the seven planets (sun, moon, saturn, jupiter, venus, mars, mercury). The teachings state that the planets transmit their subtle vibrations most intensively to plants, metals and precious stones. Folk medicine also focuses on the power of the four primordial elements, which, properly composed, can increase the quintessence (life force) of a person. In this way I can work specifically on certain emotional areas, which strengthen your body’s self-healing powers and release blockages.
Through constant exchange with the Vienna International Academy for Holistic Medicine (GAMED) and its president Prof. Dr. W. Marktl, SilberQuarzit is always at the cutting edge of science. I continuously integrate the latest research results into my products and treatments, as well as into the training of Silver Quartzite therapists.

SHOP-SILBERQUARZIT
SilberQuarzit services are first class services provided by Kornelia Schwitzer.
The raw materials that we used in our products come from a rigorous hand harvest of wild plants from the high mountains.
PARTNERS
Places to retreat
My aim is that everybody who books the SilberQuarzit Experience (also in one of my partner hotels), can be sure that the experience is only performed by people who are passionate about the natural healing arts.
The highest manual skills of the practitioners and the talent to perform the treatments with empathy are the prerequisites for the training and the subsequent implementation.
Continuous training and further education are the basis for being able and being allowed to perform these treatments in perfection. Of course, always with a hear full of love and competence. I have carefully chosen my partners over the years and have been working with them for a long time. Naturally, wonderful friendships have also developed. All my business partners have invested a lot in order to be able to offer SilberQuarzit treatments and products in today’s perfection.

STONE
Silver Quartzite
Silver quartzite is found worldwide exclusively in the valley Pfitsch and, thanks to extreme and changing geological conditions over millions of years, it is one of the hardest natural stones in the world.
Its mineral peculiarity is not only reflected in its hardness, but above all in the composition of the rock. Blocks from the lighter part of the quartz band have a quartz content of more than 90%. In the darker blocks, in addition to a quartz content of more than 60%, various other crystals and mineral features such as rutile, zircon, haematite or magnetite can be found. This variety of minerals leads to a wide range of efficient uses of the stone for body and mind.
The silver quartzite, which is mined so close to where I live, has fascinated me for decades. Out of conviction and with a keen sense for the depth of the stone, I developed the Silver Quartzite Experience more than ten years ago. Thanks to my many years of experience in the fields of salutogenesis, naturopathy, balneomedicine and cosmetics, I have succeeded in making the power of silver quartzite accessible in high-quality products and individual applications.
Silver quartzite is a metamorphic rock, which according to petrographic nomenclature is called “magnetite-hematite-tourmaline-bearing quartzite”. The following video shows the rock up close.
Composition
Dr. Wolfgang Marktl, Head of the Institute of Physiology of the University of Vienna and president of the Vienna-based International Academy of Holistic Medicine GAMED, includes clear silver quartzite among the scientifically recognized healing minerals.
He states that “clear silver quartzite is a geogenic peloid of inorganic origin classified in thermal medicine in the group of healing minerals”. (From “Balneotherapy Report on the presence of Silver Quartzite in Val di Vizze / Alto Adige”, Dr. W. Marktl , 2011).
Effect
Depending on its composition, silver quartzite has different uses. The clear one has a strong deacidifying effect, resulting in the detoxification process of the body. The dark silver quartzite, on the other hand, is much more versatile, in reason of the mineralogical complexity we have seen previously. Quartzite, in this case, acts as a perfect “bridge” between these minerals and the human body, amplifying their benefits.
Based on medical empiricism and balneotherapy reports, silver quartzite is effective for:
→ body detoxification
→ skin deacidification and firming
→ therapies in dermatological issues (e.g. neurodermatitis, psoriasis, eczema, acne, boils, scarring, etc.)
→ naturopathic treatments
→ transfer of natural essences and oils to the body
→ release from mental and emotional blocks

History
About 150 million years ago, the African and Eurasian Plates approached each other and collided. The pressure generated caused faults, aquifers, thrusts and folds, leading to the formation of the Alps over millions of years.
In this play of pressures that lasted for millennia, the Eurasian plate first slipped under the African one, and then resurfaced in some points, called tectonic windows, following the erosion and subsequent demolition of the overlying plate.
One of these windows is in South Tyrol, known as the ‘Tauern window’. Thanks to this geological phenomenon, experts can literally take a look at the deepest layers of the earth and thus its history.
After a long journey at temperatures of over 500° C and pressure of up to 8 kilobars, what was once the southern coastal strip of the Eurasian plate has been transformed into one of the hardest natural stones in the world: silver quartzite.
Stone healing knowledge
Effects and indications according to Michael Gienger, author “Lexikon der Heilsteine” (Encyclopaedia of Healing Stones)
Silver quartzite is a metamorphite. “As such it helps bringing things to an end, closing open cycles and leting go. It encourages us to end all those conditions that we do not want to continue. It also gives us the necessary courage and energy to do so. Silver quartzite stimulates mental and physical detoxification and supports all cleansing processes.”
