CHROMO THERAPY

The practice of using visible light, or “light therapy,” to promote tissue regeneration and healing is known as chromotherapy. Each colour in the spectrum has a distinct wavelength that affects our bodies differently. Light is electromagnetic radiation (energy emitted as particles or waves). Each hue has a unique vibrational frequency, and light therapy has been shown to significantly speed up the healing of open wounds, lessen pain, reduce inflammation, and minimise swelling following medical or surgical treatments.

SHATKRIYA

The fundamental purification method employed in yoga is called shat kriya, which means six in Sanskrit and denotes internal action.

Shatkriyas aid in the maintenance of good health, the treatment of depression, allergies, colds, and the flu, the clearing of the sinuses, the relief of headaches, migraines, asthma, breathing problems, indigestion, hyperacidity, and the removal of toxins from the body and mind.

Types: 

• An active breathing technique is kapalbhati.
• Neti is the term for nasal cleaning with salt water or a thread.
• Nauli involves using the abdominal muscles to create a vacuum in order to massage the interior organs.
• Extended staring at a fixed spot, generally up at a flame, is known as traktaka.
• Dhauti, kunjal kriya, and laghu shankha prakshalana include cleansing the gastrointestinal tract.
• Basti: Yogic Enema.

CUPPING THERAPY

Ancient Egypt, Greece, and China all used the traditional medicinal practice of cupping to cure medical conditions. This traditional type of complementary medicine involves a therapist applying specific cups to your skin for a short period of time to create suction. Numerous Taoists think that cupping might aid the body’s yin and yang, or negative and positive, energies, balance one another. It is believed that reestablishing equilibrium between these two extremes will improve the body’s capacity to enhance blood flow and lessen discomfort, as well as its ability to resist pathogens.

Today, there are primarily two types of cupping:

• Dry Cupping
• Wet Cupping

Suction and controlled medicinal bleeding are both potential components of wet cupping.

Applications: Cupping’s suction and negative pressure can be used to relax muscles, promote blood flow, and calm the nervous system. For the following conditions, cupping is frequently suggested as a supplementary therapy:

• Back Ache
• Migraine or a headache
• Knee ache
• Muscular discomfort and pain
• Shoulder and neck ache
• Injuries in sports and performance

HELIO THERAPY

Light therapy, also known as phototherapy or heliotherapy, involves either exposing the skin to certain light wavelengths using polychromatic polarised light to cure a skin ailment or to daylight or another form of light that is analogous to treat seasonal affective disorder. Heliotherapy is the practice of treating some skin problems with natural sunshine. This amazing technique aids in the treatment of skin conditions like vitiligo, psoriasis, acne vulgaris, and eczema. Aside from aiding Parkinson’s disease patients, it also successfully treats tuberculosis, non-seasonal depression, and neonatal jaundice. The Greek sun god Helios is the source of the name “heliotherapy.”
