The word chromotherapy comes from the Greek “Khroma” meaning color. It is not, however, recognized scientifically, but the therapeutic application of color effects has been practiced by the most ancient civilizations, like Egyptian and Chinese.

Although the concept of a therapy that could treat through colors have arrived only in the end of the 19th century to Europe. Near the end of the 18th century, Johann Goethe done a thorough research on the colors, concluding that they had specific effects on humans, effects that would be of greater or lesser intensity depending on the tone used.

Chromotherapy enthusiasts argue that each color has a specific vibration and that each of these vibrations can have a therapeutic application, whether on emotional, physical or spiritual level. In Chromotherapy, it is believed that colors can be used to correct energy unbalances, inhibiting or stimulating certain physiological functions, by applying different shades at specific points of the body: the chakras or energy fields.

Chromotherapy uses the seven colors of the solar spectrum: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet, which can be applied to the whole body or only in specific parts, sessions are carried out in a dark room with colored lights and the specific devices of Chromotherapy.
