Chromotherapy 1 Chromotherapy At EspaceSpas, we are always looking for your well-being. That's why all of our spas are equipped with series of LEDs. Reduce the light up in order to create an atmosphere of the spellbinding where the leds serve as lights. Select the different jets, put on some relaxing music, and let yourself be transported to a moment of unforgettable relaxation. Chromatherapy, the healing power of color: Chromatherapy is a method of harmonizing and assisting in the healing of certain disorders, physical or emotional, through the use of colors. The assumption is based on the sensory organs. According to this discipline, the colors would have a direct influence on the mind and body. The chromotherapy is a mixture of psychology, art, physics and medicine. Chromotherapy is not scientifically recognized or validated by the Medical Academy. This is an alternative medicine that can only be used as a complement instead of allopathic medicine. The principle of Chromotherapy: Just like the musical instrument, which must have all its strings adapted to the right tonality, so that the sound that comes out is harmonious, the chromotherapy is supposed to make us enjoy all the basic spectrum of colors. Each of them would offer specific benefits. According to the principle of chromotherapy, the colors could bring us exceptional stimuli, as for example the modification of certain moods that affect the overall balance of the person. According to the adepts of Chromotherapy, the colors could calm or even increase the vital energy, or even correct some disorders. Chromotherapy by color: The chromotherapy uses eight colors, from the three primary colors and their different combinations. Some add pink, magenta or indigo. Each color has its own meaning, 2 based on the natural and sensory experience and on the many experiences that have used the colors: • Red: it transmits energy and initiative, makes you desire. It is advisable in case of physical apathy, atony, colds caused by the chill, hypotension. Red is a sign of an eversion. Excessively, it can cause irritability, aggression and fatigue. • Yellow: clarity and joy, revitalizing and stimulating the brain and enthusiasm. Yellow is assimilated to sunlight. It's an effective antidepressant. It is also advisable in case of digestive disorders. To excess: irritability and prejudice. • Orange: mixture of red and yellow, it involves the benefits of these two colors, the physical activity caused by the first and the lucidity of the second. The orange offers emotional health, communication and creativity, it is encouraging and combating inhibitions. It also regulates hyperthyroidism and repairs the majority of tissues. To excess: It causes nervousness and agitation. • Blue: refreshing, relaxing, it is indicated for insomnia, psychic fatigue and stress, palpitations, high blood pressure, acute pain, fever, elimination of cell residues, it is also antiseptic. Blue awakens intuition and talent when combined with green. To excess: melancholy and meditation. • Green: a clever blend of lucid yellow and soothing blue, the green brings a calm atmosphere, it is reconstituted, soft and fresh, ideal for recuperating from physical or mental fatigue. It stimulates the growth and regeneration of cells. The green is tonic and rebalances the nervous and circulatory systems. To excess, it can weaken or cause depression. • Turquoise: it calms and decreases inflammations and infections, helping the immune system. Composed of yellow, it also stimulates discernment and the desire to share it with others, and finally it facilitates concentration. • Violet: it calms and strengthens the nervous system, increasing the performance of mental activity. It is advisable for certain psychic disorders, anxieties and fears in general and loss of memory. It helps with the detoxification of the blood and the problems of rheumatism related to moisture. To the excess, it can trigger the penalty or a concealed anger. Chromotherapy in practice: We recommend using chromotherapy every time you use the spa, from ten to thirty minutes every 3 days. The results would be visible after two or three weeks. It should be recalled that chromotherapy is not scientifically recognised or validated medically by any western health authority. No scientific evidence or publication in a scientific journal at the Reading Committee has ever been able to demonstrate its effectiveness. It is an alternative medicine that can only be used as a complement instead of allopathic medicine. .

  • Beyond Human Vision: Towards an Archaeology of Infrared Images
    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF MEDIA STUDIES www.necsus-ejms.org Beyond human vision: Towards an archaeology of infrared images Federico Pierotti & Alessandra Ronetti NECSUS (7) 1, Spring 2018: 185–215 URL: https://necsus-ejms.org/beyond-human-vision-towards-an-ar- chaeology-of-infrared-images/ Keywords: infrared, media archaeology, medical photography, mili- tary applications, phototherapy, resolution, surveillance Introduction: Digital infrared visual culture Infrared has an important place in contemporary society, especially since the 1990s, with the introduction of new military display and detection technol- ogy and increasingly sophisticated tracking and control systems. In the mili- tary field, these uses were quickly followed by the pursuit of various digital image practices in photography, cinema, video art, and computer art, serving to establish what could somewhat be defined as a real ‘infrared visual culture’. It is not an overstatement to say, therefore, that infrared images have become a rather common feature of contemporary visual culture, especially thanks to the use of night vision devices, which capture their typical images with a greenish tint. Since these images were broadcast worldwide by CNN during the Gulf War from 1990-1991, they have circulated widely in both artistic and mainstream circles. In his famous series Nacht (Night, 1992-1996), the Ger- man photographer Thomas Ruff deconstructs the rhetoric behind these very images, showing photographs of anonymous locations in Düsseldorf taken using night vision devices similar to those used by US soldiers during their campaigns in Iraq.[1] In The Silence of the Lambs (1991), one of the most well- known and awarded Hollywood films of its time, the serial killer finds and captures his victim using an infrared viewfinder (Fig.

  • Holistic Approaches to Recovery1
    JAD JOURNAL OF ADDICTIVE DISORDERS HOLISTIC APPROACHES TO RECOVERY1 SUMMARY An examination of holistic approaches to recovery from addictions, including a discussion of meridians, yin/yang, chakras, auras and subtle bodies, vibrational and other therapies. ARTICLE “What goes around, comes around.” Such a familiar statement that is often used as a declaration of justice. But what if it was true as it relates to recovery from addictions, that what goes around does come around? An old occult axiom states “all energy follows thought.” Where one places their thought, that is where energy will begin to manifest. Another axiom is “as above, so below; as below, so above.” The vibrations (energy) that one focuses with one’s thought magnifies through other vibrational methods such as color, sound and fragrances. And a third axiom is “like attracts like.” The body is a microcosm which attracts inwardly those energy patterns that are needed. Energies from aroma, oils and incense, for example, will trigger a response that can strengthen (or weaken) a system, an organ or any bodily function. Most Western medicines take care of the symptoms of a disease, preferably with a “quick fix” rather than look at the symptoms as an indication of the body being out of balance. Western medicines temporarily alleviate the inconvenience of a runny nose but by doing this, the body cannot cleanse itself of the toxins that have caused it. And rather than take Tylenol for the chronic back pain, why not delve deeper into why there is pain? The body might be saying that it is over worked, undernourished or out of balance because of emotional stress.
