    "concept_summary": "A family of pyramid-shaped constructions that incorporate quartz crystals, permanent magnets, mineral powders, metals, and water channels. The geometry and material composition are claimed to accumulate free electrons and generate scalar or torsion waves, which are then delivered to a human body or object for therapeutic effect. Some embodiments use high-frequency electrical heating to amplify the alleged pyramid energy.",
