Colour puncture therapy is an effective, pain free and non-invasive treatment. It is done by using seven colours of light, logically and effectively on acupuncture points so as to harmonise the body’s bio-energy flowing in 14 channels.
Source of light is a simple torch and the desired colour is obtained by using colour filter. This coloured light is then passed through a crystal with prism tip which touches the skin on specific acupuncture points and some special zones.
The need of colour puncture
