Therefore, a balanced and educated approach to the use of sunlight should adhered to in order to reduce the chances of sun damage yet also ensuring all the benefits the sun has to offer. 4.3 Light Therapy in a Nut-Shell 4.3.1 Means of Application There are three mediums through which light and colour can be applied: The eyes, surface of the skin and acupuncture meridian points. Traditional Syntonics utilises the eyes to effect beneficial changes in the body by manipulating the sympathetic or parasympathetic nervous system back into balance. It has recently also been used for the therapeutic resolution of mental and emotional traumas. Spectro-Chrome and Laser Therapy utilises the skin as a medium through which to apply its therapeutic qualities. Colourpuncture’s gateway into the bodily system is through the acupuncture points. The homoeopathic colour remedies are a comparatively new addition to light therapy and can be applied orally. 4.3.2 How is Colour used to affect the Body? Colour is used therapeutically in two ways (excluding laser therapy). The first method is the application of either the blue or the red side of the colour spectrum to ‘cool’ or ‘energise’ a perceived imbalance within the body. For example colourpuncture uses colours to either add energy or decrease the energy flow into a meridian. Red would be the most extreme stimulator whereas violet would be the strongest suppressor of energy. A fever treated with the colour blue would be an example of an excess of energy/heat within the body that is ‘cooled down’ by the application of a ‘cooling’ colour. The second method involves the use of a single colour for its own particular therapeutic attributes. An example of this can be seen in spectro-chrome therapy with use of the colour lime for its detoxification qualities or the colour purple for its effects on the female reproductive system. All the therapies use these two formulas in varying degrees. Laser therapy, on the other hand, focuses only on the effects of light on a local cellular level. The changes to the cellular function resulting in improved injury repair. The only light therapy that is similar to laser therapy in its application is Spectro-Chrome Therapy except the theory behind its mechanism of action differs (see section 3.5). 93
