What is Chromotherapy?

Chromotherapy, also known as colour therapy, is an alternative healing practice that uses colours and light to balance and enhance the body’s energy centres, known as chakras. Each colour in the spectrum corresponds to a different energy centre and has its own unique healing properties.

For centuries, cultures around the world have recognised the profound impact that colours have on our mood, health, and overall well-being. Whether it's the calming blue of a clear sky or the energising red of a sunrise, colours play a significant role in our daily lives.

Benefits of Chromotherapy

  1. Mood Enhancement: By targeting specific colours that correspond to your emotional needs, chromotherapy can help elevate your mood and bring a sense of emotional well-being.
  2. Stress Reduction: Colours like blue and green are known for their calming effects, making chromotherapy an excellent tool for managing stress and anxiety.
  3. Improved Sleep: Exposure to calming colours before bedtime can help regulate your circadian rhythm, leading to better sleep quality.
  4. Enhanced Energy: On the other hand, colours like red and orange can help boost energy levels and improve mental clarity, making them ideal for use during the day.
  5. Pain Relief: Some studies suggest that certain colours can help reduce pain and inflammation, offering a natural complement to other pain management techniques

How do we incorporate chromotherapy into our products?

At Kiva Wellness, we believe in the synergy of ancient practices and modern technology.

The use of an LED chromotherapy lightbox included inside your sauna alongside infrared technology is known as phototherapy.

The LED lights inside your sauna will change with the click of a button. Each colour offers you a different experience. For example, blue is believed to encourage your body to relax and unwind, which is perfect after a busy day of running around.

Our Rise and RejuvAir Infrared Saunas feature 7 chromotherapy colours, and our Radiance Infrared Saunas feature 10 chromotherapy colours.
