Color Therapy

What is it?

Color therapy, which is also known as chromatherapy, uses the seven colors of the rainbow to help heal the body and mind. Color Therapy uses color to re balance your energy centers, which are otherwise known as your chakras.

How does it work?

Colour therapy is also connected to Ayurveda, which is an ancient form of medicine that has been used in India for thousands of years. It is based on the idea that an individual has five basic elements of the universe known as, earth, water, fire and air. When these elements are not in balance in an individual's body then Ayurveda medicine uses the energy in the colours to restore the balance.

Normally, when you go to a colour therapy practitioner they will carry out a full interview with you and determine what colours are needed to heal your body and mind. They will then wrap you up in the appropriate colour of cloth that will heal your body. Some practitioners may also add water with colour and ask you to drink it or even colour the room and contents within it a specific colour that will help heal your body.

How much does it cost?

Normally, this treatment costs around $70 but this will depend on what practitioner you use.

Are there any side effects?

There are no known side effects with colour therapy.
