father’s surname), summarized his work in the book: Let There be Light which serves as the basis for most of the information in this section. 3.6.2 Definition of Spectro-Chrome Therapy Spectro-Chrome therapy is a healing modality which utilises coloured light projected directly onto specific designated areas of the body (Ghadiali, 1933). 3.6.3 Principles of Spectro-Chrome Therapy From his research, Ghadiali postulated the three basic principles behind Spectro-Chrome Therapy. Firstly, the human body has specific reactions to different light stimuli. Secondly, colours are related to physiological functions and, lastly, exposing the body to coloured light aids bodily function (Dinshah, 1985). 3.6.4 Spectro-Chrome Philosophy When viewed through a spectroscope, every chemical element in nature will, when in an excited state, give off a characteristic set of coloured bands called spectral emission lines. These sets of frequency emissions are the identifying fingerprint for a specific element and are called Fraunhofer lines. If an excited element is exposed to white light it will absorb the same frequencies of light it gives off. Dinshah P. Ghadiali theorized that the human body, which uses many of these elements, would also absorb and give off light. He studied the Fraunhofer spectrum for each element within the body to determine its predominant colour and then matched each element’s primary colour emission with its known physiological function. He theorized that an element’s predominant colour was directly related to its function in the human body and could be used therapeutically to aid that element’s activity. Ghadiali then developed a set of twelve attuned colour filters to be used with the Spectro-chrome system of healing. These filters are inserted into a light projector and directed at the desired area of the body. His theories have not been scientifically validated, however all who have used them have verified the success of his methods in clinical use (Liberman, 1991). 3.6.5 Development of Spectro-Chrome Therapy Dinshah P. Ghadiali was born in India on November 28th, 1873. He learned to speak eight oriental and occidental languages. Dinshah studied medicine, chemistry and physics. He also 54
