La cromoterapia, ossia la cura attraverso i colori, affonda le sue antiche radici nelle tradizioni mediche indiana, cinese e tibetana. Ma si tratta anche di una terapia estremamente attuale. È scientificamente provato, infatti, che i colori possono influenzare significativamente le nostre emozioni e il nostro benessere psicofisico. Inoltre, i colori prevengono e curano molti disturbi, svolgendo un'azione specifica su alcune ghiandole.
