uses color to trigger psychological response through
subtle means. This powerful, yet relaxing and
unique therapy balances the emotions and adjusts
your mentality by simply exposing the body to
different colors and hues for specific amounts of
time, usually about 30 to 60 minutes per day. Each
color emits a measurable frequency and can be
administered using several methods. Such methods
include light therapy, color therapy eye wear, or the
use of colored cloths. At the Gallery of Health, we

*Color Therapy Eye wear works directly through the eyes.
Color enters the eyes through the lens and is sent to receptors
in the retina. These receptors send the color frequencies
through the optic nerve, to the brain and pineal glands where
it is converted into signals sent out through the nervous
system into endocrine signals. The pineal gland regulates the
production and excretion of melatonin which is the primary
force behind regulating the waking/sleeping cycles and the
endocrine system as a whole is responsible for regulating
mood. Thus, the different wave lengths produced by colors
have different effects on psychological and physical functions.
Color Therapy Eye wear immerses you in a specific color to
enhance the impact of that color on the body.
