Colours therapy is one of the best methods for the treatment of diseases known as Chromotherapy. It is best used as a supportive therapy along with other natural methods of conserving health like correct diet, adequate rest and relaxation, exercise, yogic asanas, and so on.
According to practitioners of chromotherapy, the cause of any disease is often traced to the lack of specific colours in the human system. Colour therapy is a technique that restores imbalance by applying colored light to the body. In ancient times, it was a popular method of cure diseases. Some 2,500 years ago, Pythagoras applied color light therapeutically, and ‘color halls’ were used for healing in ancient Egypt, China, and India.
Sunlight plays an important role in the recovery from chronic diseases. The sun rays contain seven different colours i.e; rainbow colours – violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. These rainbow colours are natural colours which are highly beneficial to the maintenance of health and for healing diseases.
