Light Therapy

A typical sunlight ray consists of all the visible colors augmented with some of the spectrum which are invisible to human eye; these rays usually consists of infrared and ultraviolet rays which are part of the spectrum even though they are invisible. These two types of rays are usually receptive to the skin.
Light therapists believe that individual colors of light have different effects on chemical balance of a human being’s body, while different colors have different effects on physical health and a person’s mood. For instance, pink is considered as having calming effect, blue lowers the blood pressure and blood circulation while red can be used to increase it. These therapists work with colors to balance the body both physically and psychologically.
