Chromotherapy has been a fascinating subject for more than 4000 years. This ancient healing technique can now be utilized in our homes to improve our health, well-being, and general outlook on life. The best place in your home to incorporate this technique is in your shower, because you will not have to break your regular routine to receive a dose of the healing technique. NV Kitchen and Bath has some few tips on incorporating the lighting technique in your bathroom remodel.

Firstly, when selecting a tub with a chromotherapy package, pick one that comes with at least four colors. Different colors have different health benefits and that is why it is important to have as many colors as possible. For instance, blue light has anti-inflammatory properties, and it can help improve circulation as well as reduce blood pressure. Red light has the effect of stimulating and energizing by increasing your pulse rate, giving you the extra charge you need to face the day. Green light has been documented to reduce insomnia and irritability, while yellow improves mood and can aid in digestion.

Stained glass can also be used for chromotherapy purposes, as it has been used all over the world for centuries. The biggest advantage of stained glass is that a multitude of colors can be incorporated in the glass. When using stained glass, it does not matter whether it filters natural or man-made lights, as the results will always be amazing. For an even more spectacular result, you should bevel the glass and use it alongside crystals, beads, and other types of glass.

Finally, consider locating your master bathroom on the east side of the home if you prefer showering early in order to catch the rays of the morning sun. If you prefer bathing after a hard day’s work, then you should locate your bathroom on the west side in order to catch the sunset rays.
