A common therapy that is combined with hydrotherapy for great benefits is chromotherapy. Chromotherapy is a healing modality that makes use of the light we can see to treat various forms of certain diseases. In simple terms, chromotherapy utilizes color to bring about healing. Colors have been used for healing purposes since ancient times. Certain colors are associated with the body’s power centers and these have been proven to promote different kinds of healing. For example, red is associated with warmth and circulation, and is therefore used to alleviate back pain, low blood pressure and improve blood circulation. Other colors that are used for healing purposes include orange, which is associated with creativity and optimism and is used to treat kidney issues and skin problems, and yellow, the ‘happy color’ which helps with depression. When coupled with hydrotherapy, chromotherapy is highly effective and can be used to bring about healing where various ailments are concerned.
