Colour Acupuncture Diploma course
Colour acupuncture is a growing field of light therapy that provides an alternative to invasive traditional acupuncture. The penetrating properties of light, work without the aid of needles and provides an effective and subtle form of complementary treatment. Beams of coloured light can be channelled through the healer’s hands using acupressure or a crystal light torch, which focuses a beam of coloured light along the meridians, acupuncture point or part of the body.
