HEALING WITH COLOR AND LIGHT

THE USE OF color and light in healing is actually quite old. The priests of ancient Egypt, Babylonia, and China used color or colored light in many of their healing practices. Sunlight therapy was a common medical practice in historic Greek, Chinese and Roman times for the relief of skin disorders such as psoriasis. In the 1890s, Nobel Prize–winner Dr. Neils Finsen reported that he could heal skin lesions caused by smallpox and German measles by using red- and infrared-light treatments. Even today it is not too difficult to find light therapy used in traditional medical protocols. For example, ultraviolet phototherapy, combined with psoralen-containing creams, is often used by dermatologists to heal severe cases of psoriasis. And the use of lasers in medicine and surgery has become quite commonplace. In recent years, it seems that the use of light and color in healing has become standard practice for a number of specific medical applications. The use of colored light in healing was banned by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) fifty years ago because it was thought to be nothing more than medical quackery. But today, FDA-approved phototherapy devices like the Lumatron, developed by Dr. John Downing, are being used for the therapeutic application of specific colors and frequencies of light to the body. The use of healing light therapies covers a wide range of approaches and applications, all the way from laser surgery for diabetic eye disease to laser heart revascularization to the use of full-spectrum light boxes for treating Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a form of depression commonly known as the “winter blues.”1 In order to better understand the varied applications of light therapy, or phototherapy as it is sometimes called, we need to examine how light affects the physical body, as well as how it may affect the spiritual bodies and subtle-energy systems that make up the multidimensional human being. Recent medical research has begun to validate some of the many healing applications of light energy. But as you will soon discover, there is an even greater spectrum of color/light healing applications than are known to, or even used by, most conventional physicians.
