Chromotherapy, also known as color light therapy, is a treatment using colored light to restore balance to the body and mind. Chromotherapy states each color has a specific vibration frequency and relates to different physical symptoms. It is said to work by interacting with the body’s energy systems to reduce tension, promote healing, and have a soothing effect.

Light and color act as a trigger for psychological reactions. When light hits a surface, its wavelength changes and reveals color, which holds particular meanings for each person. This evolutionary trait allows colors to profoundly affect our mind and body. For example, we find brightly colored fruit more appealing than dull or pale fruit because colors indicate ripeness. The deep blue of the ocean induces a sense of calm, while the reds and oranges of a sunset energize us. These powerful effects are harnessed in chromotherapy to achieve specific therapeutic outcomes.
