Colour therapy is an ancient healing art. For millennia it has been utilized by different cultures such as Egyptians, Indian Ayurveda and Chinese Medicine.
Aiming at stimulating different colors’ vibrational frequencies to balance neurohormonal pathways in the brain is central to this therapy’s effectiveness; colors offer much more than visual experiences alone.
What is it?
Colour vibration therapy, otherwise known as chromotherapy or colour healing, is a holistic form of treatment using visual colors to alter both body and mind biochemistry. Every hue in the visible light spectrum possesses its own frequency which impacts neurohormonal pathways in our brains; by targeting these frequencies with Chromotherapy tools they stimulate deeper brain structures including hypothalamus and pituitary glands which in turn influence hormonal balance as well as impact physical wellbeing.
Everything in our universe vibrates and has its own resonance or rhythm, as science moves towards quantum physics and Einstein’s theory that everything has its own vibrational frequency becomes increasingly viable. Therefore, sound, light and colour therapies have gained in popularity to rebalance body energy levels and increase overall wellbeing.
Colour vibration therapy (CVT) is an ever-increasing wellness trend, merging ancient practices of healing with cutting-edge science. Healers worldwide continue to use colours as healing agents in their practices – using colour to aid physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing is something humanity has been doing since our beginning.
What are the benefits?
Color vibration therapy, more commonly referred to as chromotherapy, is an alternative healing approach using light waves to balance and heal the body. Based on the principle that all colors possess specific frequencies which have positive impacts on our wellbeing, chromotherapy offers natural, safe and effective energy healing to promote mental, physical, emotional health and wellbeing.
As part of its work, this system uses specific light frequencies that influence neurohormonal pathways in the brain such as melatonin and serotonin production. Different colors in the visible light spectrum have their own specific vibrational frequency that influences these hormones; red has low vibrational frequency to stimulate metabolism and circulation while yellow’s higher frequency can boost energy and cognitive performance; green provides soothing vibrational frequency to help ease stress and anxiety reduction while blue provides soothing effect which promotes relaxation while purple provides high vibrational frequencies for spiritual healing and creativity.
Color vibration therapy sessions involve practitioners using various tools to direct colors towards areas that require healing in the body. If someone suffers from headaches, their color therapist might use blue light on their forehead in order to ease tension; or alternatively red light could be applied on abdominal area to detoxify it and detoxify liver function.
Colour vibration therapy can be used to address various conditions, including fatigue, stress, depression, insomnia and chronic pain. It has also proven useful for digestive ailments like peptic ulcers and gastric reflux disease – even helping treat hepatitis B, hypertension and neonatal jaundice!

How to get started
Colour therapy (chromotherapy) utilizes visible electromagnetic spectrum frequencies to realign body vibrations with frequencies that will improve both mental and physical well-being. It focuses on different hues in the light spectrum which emit unique frequencies said to stimulate specific neurohormonal pathways within your brain.
Warmer colours like reds, oranges and yellows have been said to stimulate energy and blood circulation while cool shades such as blues and soft purples may create feelings of peace and wellbeing. It would be wise to consult a healthcare practitioner prior to undertaking such treatments alone if any life-threatening or mental conditions exist in the person undergoing them.
Vibrational medicine encompasses color, sound and light therapies as part of Einstein’s theory that all matter vibrates at its own frequency. Vibrational healing seeks to balance these frequencies through various means such as sound therapy with tuning forks or Tibetan singing bowls or music therapy designed to promote emotional balance and wellbeing. Integrating vibrational frequencies into daily life routines will help individuals feel more grounded and balanced.
