Therapy with Light: A Practitioner's Guide

You will see the light when you read the revelations in Therapy with Light. This "enlightening" book examines the effects of light on mind and body, using the writings of many researchers and practitioners to find common denominators on the effects of coloured light, ultraviolet light, and infrared light. Readers are given techniques for applying light therapeutically, and will learn in layman's terms the little-known facts about secondary fields of light, as well as light issued by body cells and the cutting-edge technology of photobiology. After 18 years of research into the effects of light on mind and body, author Adolf Deppe explores the evidence and determines ways that light can be used to successfully treat ailments such as depression, anxiety, migraine, arthritis and more. Coloured light was used by the early Greeks, who suspended dyed cloth over building apertures to cast coloured light on patients. Coloured light, ultraviolet light, and infrared light all have unique and powerful effects on our well-being. Many of these effects are explored in Therapy with Light: A Practitioner's Guide. Adolf Deppe, D.Litt. et Phil., Grad. Dip. Ed., is a psychologist who grew up in South Africa. He "saw the light" and was inspired to write this book after hearing an art lecturer speak on the effects coloured light had on the emotional reactions of students. "When the book was finished, I felt that I had made a contribution to healing." Publisher's website: http://sbpra.com/AdolfDeppe
