Colourpuncture is a method of healing using colour, developed by a German naturopath called Peter Mandel. The treatments involve focusing coloured light onto acupuncture points on the body. As skin is photosensitive, the colour is absorbed into the skin and penetrates deeply into all the cells of the body. Colourpuncture is so successful because it is a completely painfree non-invasive technique which combines the principles of acupuncture with the healing power of colour.

Peter Mandel has formulated strategies to firstly heal the psychological element of ill health and then the physical manifestation of the dis-ease. He has developed strategies for treating the very basis of diseases originating from endocrine, toxic or degenerative disorders.

He has also designed treatment formulas to remove the symptoms arising from these conditions e.g. headaches, skin disorders, and insomnia, eye problems, to name just a few

However of particular fascination are the treatments designed by Peter Mandel to treat the psychological aspects of ill health. Peter Mandel recognized that many disharmonies occur because of childhood emotional traumas even going back to problems arising in utero. He believes that the emotional and physical trauma arising from a forceps delivery for example, or from being born to a mother who was under stress whilst pregnant, can cause ill health much later in life. He has developed a pre-natal treatment which treats this very problem.

He has also developed treatments to treat people with disharmonies arising from conflict with either a mother or father figure in childhood. Another fascinating treatment is one which helps the patient come to their own realization of the cause of their illness. Many people who have experienced this treatment have reported that they have woken up the next morning with a realization of how a situation in their lives was causing them ill health.

HOW DO YOU COMBINE ACUPUNCTURE AND COLOURPUNCTURE
IN YOUR CLINIC?

If a patient has a particular preference for either acupuncture or colourpuncture we are happy to use their preferred method of treatment. We find that both modalities have great merit. In particular we find that the colourpuncture treatments developed to overcome the psychological effects of childhood trauma are without equal. Therefore we aim wherever possible to synergistically combine the two healing mediums to bring about the swiftest possible healing response.
