Chromotherapy has very ancient origins, since traditional medicines have always attributed great importance to the influence of colors on man's health and mood. Chromotherapy practices were known since Ancient Egypt: Egyptian mythology assigns the god Thot the discovery of chromotherapy. According to hermetic tradition, both the Egyptians and the Greeks made use of minerals, stones, crystals and colored ointments, as well as painting the walls of the places of treatment. Chromotherapy can be applied alone or as an enhancement to other treatments, being a formidable "catalyst" for stimulating natural self-healing processes. People who suffer physically or psychologically can profitably associate chromotherapy with any treatment (allopathic, homeopathic, physiotherapy, reflexology) because it stimulates the natural disposal of toxins mobilized by the active ingredients of the products, cleaning and protecting the whole organism. This treatment can be practiced on three levels: · Physical treatment, on a sore, infected or traumatized area of the body, to solve skin or rheumatological problems · Eye treatment, a central regulation treatment that stimulates both body and mind. The color is, in fact, perceived through the eyelids as sunlight and influences the patient's psyche. Recommended in case of tiredness, stress and sleep disturbances. · Acupuncture treatment, aimed at certain organs, and serves to recharge and naturally heal the ailments of the body.
