How colours affect our health

Chromotherapy is one of the oldest alternative methods of treatment of diseases by colour that was already known in ancient Egypt, China and India. It relies on the powerful influence of colour on both physical and mental health and uses its healing qualities to stimulate, soothe and recuperate human body.

Many clinics and hospitals all over the world use colour therapy as a supportive method of treatment of the diseases of digestive system, respiratory system or circulatory system.

Being surrounded by colours is the easiest way to get influenced by their healing powers.

Whether we do it by decorating our house with particular colour, by wearing clothes or by composing food of various colours is not important as long as we are surrounded by coloured light. Interestingly enough, according to nature therapists, even coloured water poured into a bottle and exposed into the sunlight may constitute an excellent natural source of the stimulating power of colour on human beings.
